High-Flavor, Low Fat Italian Food Cookbook
Raichlen is the author of more than a dozen cookbooks, but his previous "High Flavor, Low Fat" books (LJ 3/15/95, LJ 10/15/92) have proved particularly popular, and his latest installment is likely to be so, too. Some of the recipes are Italian-inspired rather than truly authentic, such as an appealing Basil-Grilled Tuna with Bitter Greens; others come from restaurants or trattorias in Italy, and still others are low-fat versions of familiar dishes like Eggplant Parmigiana. Although it seems unlikely that some of the low-fat re-creations (Enlightened Pesto) live up to the original, this is nevertheless recommended for most collections.Copyright 1997 Reed Business Information, Inc.
