For more than twenty years, Barefoot Contessa, the acclaimed speciality food store, cooked and baked extraordinary dishes for enthusiastic customers in the Hamptons. For many of those years, people tried to get the exuberant owner, Ina Garten, to share the secrets of her store. Finally, the energy and style that made Barefoot Contessa such a special place are shown here, with dozens of recipes and more than 160 breathtaking photographs, in The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook. Ina's most popular recipes use familiar ingredients, but they taste even better than you would expect. Her Pan-Fried Onion Dip is the real thing. Her Tomato soup is created from oven-roasted tomatoes and fresh basil to intensify the flavours. The light and flaky Maple-Oatmeal Scones are baked with rolled oats, whole wheat, and real maple syrup. Now these and other famous Barefoot Contessa recipes can be prepared at home. Ina's experience at Barefoot Contessa has given her hundreds of ideas for creating wonderful parties in a few hours. And they're all in this book...Crab Cakes with Remoulade Sauce can be stored overnight in the refrigerator and sauteed just before the guests arrive.The ingredients for Grilled Salmon Salad can all be prepared ahead and tossed together before serving. The batter for the Raspberry Corn Muffins can be mixed a day before and popped into the oven just before breakfast. Ina Garten teaches us how to entertain with style, simplicity, and a relaxed sense of fun. There are notes throughout the book for giving cocktail parties, lunches, and dinner parties where everything is done before the guests arrive. And there are easy instructions for creating gorgeous party platters that don't even require you to cook!

I Love Her Cookbooks!
In addition to having a beautiful layout of photographs her recipes are tried and true. The Perfect Roast Chicken recipe is the only way I will ever cook a roasting chicken again and it make a wonderful soup later on. Other favorites are Potato-Fennel Gratin, Roasted Carrots, Indonesian Ginger Chicken, and Fresh Lemonade.
