Irvine shows how to approach ingredients in both new and familiar ways, how to plan and execute delicious meals every time, and how to guarantee maximum flavor from every dish. By following a few simple rules, home cooks can whip up a single dish or prepare a week’s worth of family meals in a snap. Here, too, is advice on how to get the most out of fresh foods and spices, when to use canned or frozen items, pantry staples, do-ahead and storage tips, and 125 easy-to-master recipes sure to keep family and friends coming back for more.
