About this title

About the Author:

Jane Brody's previous books include the best-selling Jane Brody's Nutrition Book, Jane Brody's Good Food Book, and Jane Brody's Good Food Gourmet

From Library Journal:

Both these books are devoted to healthful eating, but in some ways they couldn't be more different. Brody, the New York Times health columnist and author of Jane Brody's Good Food Book ( LJ 11/1/85), offers some 500 low-fat, low-cholesterol, low-salt recipes. Some are adaptations of food magazine recipes, some come from her readers, some are familiar favorites that have been reworked. Hers is satisfying, homey, but not always particularly exciting food. Many recipes involve long lists of ingredients. Nevertheless, Brody's following guarantees that this will be much in demand. Previewed in Prepub Alert, LJ 6/15/90. Schneider, a former chef, is a food writer and contributing editor of Food & Wine. Her healthful, low-calorie dishes are fresh, imaginative, and visually stunning: Wild Mushroom Ragout with Polenta, Mesclun Salad with Pan-fried Tuna, Phyllo Pear Tart with Fried Raspberries. Although the price may make this a luxury item for some libraries, it's a diet book like no other. Highly recommended.
