Description:

2005 IACP Award Finalist - General Category


Cooks in a hurry, take heart! Memorable dishes are only moments away with Jacques Pépin’s stunning new cookbook. The most celebrated chef in the world — the man who taught millions of Americans how to cook — applies his skills to the food he loves best: simple, special meals that can be prepared quickly. Fast food Jacques’s way is as effortless as seasoning a salmon with fresh herbs and nutty bread crumbs and cooking it right on the serving platter in a low oven. And it doesn’t get any easier than his Instant Beef Tenderloin Stew, quickly sautéed steak combined with an array of colorful vegetables — brighter, fresher, and far faster than traditional versions. Pumpkin Soup with Toasted Walnuts, Quick Cassoulet, and Caramelized Peaches rely on canned goods (what Jacques calls “treasures in the pantry”) and take just moments to make.


With Jacques Pépin Fast Food My Way, even a succulent roast can be on the table in thirty minutes. Every dish in this beautifully photographed cookbook is special enough to serve to company.


With no tricks, no gimmicks, and no compromises in flavor or appearance, just honest techniques and the lessons of a lifetime of experience, Jacques Pépin Fast Food My Way proves that the best food is the simplest.

The reviewer on 7/27/08 perhaps had a misprinted book. Yes, there is two-color ink used in the printing, but it is more of a yellow-green in color and quite visible. The recipes are great, easy to prepare and delicious. What is different about this book, from his later More Fast Food book, is that there are more make-ahead tips and instructions. This is a big help when trying to entertain well on a very busy schedule.

This book is written with two color font type. The comments at the top of the page are written in pale gold making them almost impossible to read. This definitely was annoying and discouraged me from my usual practice of reading through the cookbook and profiting from the chef's comments. The beginning of the book has an interesting section called "More Ideas for Quick Dishes" which contains a number of good ideas for "fast" food preparation.
