Chef Michel Stroot from the Golden Door shares hisrecipe secrets.
The Golden Door Spa in Escondido, California is a
premier and exclusive destination where guests are
pampered and dine on fine spa cuisine. You can now sample some of Chef Michel Stroot’s renowned recipes in your own kitchen. The recipes in this beautifully illustrated cookbook are nutritious as well as delicious. The book begins with a beautifully written introduction by Chef Stroot as well as illustrations of some of the recipes.
The recipes are divided into standard sections such as breakfast and seafood as well as Meatless Main Courses and Golden Door Basics. Golden Door Basics covers an assortment of accompaniments such as salsas and dressings to some breads such as semolina dough which he uses in a variety of recipes. The recipes are well written and easy to follow. They also call for ingredients you can find at a local major supermarket.
There are helpful hints and pointers accompanying
many of the recipes which I found practical and
interesting.
The Golden Door Cooks Light & Easy is a well written spa cookbook that will definitely help one have delicious and satisfying healthy meals at home. The only thing I would have liked the book to include is nutritional information for each recipe.Title: The Golden Door Cooks Light and Easy Author: Michel Stroot Publisher: Gibbs Smith ISBN: 158685254X Review written by: Margherita Miserandino Reviewer's Rating:8
