River Cafe founders Rose Gray and Ruth Rogers have been hailed by critics for their innovative approach to Italian food, which they demonstrated gloriously in 4 highly successful cookbooks, Now, they have compiled a superb collection of recipes for everyone whose love of fabulous food is often frustrated by the lack of time.

Displaying the imagination and panache that are Rose and Ruth's hallmarks, these remarkably easy recipes are assembled with just a handful of ingredients and even fewer steps. Tuna Carpaccio with Capers and Arugula; Tagliatelle with figs, Chili, and Cream; and Roast Quail with Salt and Sage are as simple to prepare as they are enticing.
Each recipe, illustrated with a gorgeous photograph, highlights the fresh produce you will need to shop for, as well as the ingredients that are pantry essentials. Twenty categories--from bruschetta and antipasti, through seafood, veal, lamb, and pork, to chocolate cakes and ice cream--provide an inexhaustible array of meal-planning ideas for cooks of all skill levels.
