With this newest addition to their 99% fat-free cookbook series, best-selling
authors Barry Bluestein and Kevin Morrissey present their version of
America's favorite cuisine.
They broke new ground with The 99% Fat-Free Cookbook by proving that
tasty, sophisticated, and virtually fat-free meals could be made without
resorting to artificial ingredients. With 99% Fat-Free Appetizers and
Desserts, they applied those same principles to two of the most popular
and potentially fat-laden courses of any meal. In 99% Fat-Free Meals in 30
Minutes, they conquered the time factor.
Now, with 99% Fat-Free Italian Cooking, they bring their expertise to
bear on one of America's favorite cuisines. While Italian food may, for
some, be synonymous with olive oil and cheese, it is also famous for its
use of healthy grains, pasta, and rice. Bluestein and Morrissey have
conquered polenta, tamed risotto, and made peace with pasta, but they also
include a full range of 99% fat-free meats, poultry, and fish, with dishes
ranging from Seafood Salad to Sausage Calzones to Veal and
Couscous-Stuffed Red Peppers to Chicken Piccata to Tuscan Stew. Nor do
they forget those delicious Italian desserts, such as Chocolate Tiramisù.
As in all their books, the authors include a listing of essential 99%
fat-free pantry items, a section explaining special techniques and
equipment, and a selection of suggested menus.
In short, 99% Fat-Free Italian Cooking is a must-have book for all
Italian food-lovers concerned with limiting their dietary fat.
