Have you ever started to make a dessert only to find, somewhere in the fine print, a hidden ingredient which is not in your spice cupboard? I can't count the number of times this scenario has happened to me. I get everything ready to create something, and find another ingredient which I don't have, try to substitute, and ruin the dish. With that in mind, I created a "Thumbnail" shopping list which I guarantee has all of the ingredients you will need for the dessert you are going to make, so you can always be prepared when baking with these recipes. Another frustration I have, is being instructed to turn to another page to complete the dessert I am working on. There I am, with my fingers covered with some unknown ingredient, flipping through the cookbook, feeling like Hansel and Gretel depositing crumbs which are destined to stick to the pages being turned, instead of staying in the bowl to become part of the tasty delicacy. Hence, complete recipes I organized everything onto one page for simplicity. You may find a filling in the filling section, but you will also find that filling on the same page when it is used in a specific dessert. With everyone being more aware of healthy eating habits, I added nutritional facts about each recipe. With this cookbook, you can still enjoy that "home cooking" and know exactly what you are adding to your diet.

This book is a book of travel. And recipes. And cooking. But most of all, this book is a book of love. Our own family started out as relatively normal people living in a rather normal American town. Then God got hold of us and sent us to the world. As a family! On the way it became apparent that certain things were important: home in the midst of the new, familiarity in the midst of chaos, togetherness in the midst of too much work and a babble of strangers -- this all boiled down to the need for love! ""When you travel, live and work in so many places -- among so many languages and foods and manners of doing things -- you are changed. You don't stay quite the person you were when you left your humdrum life back home... "" So this book is sent out to all those who dream of travel and adventure. Also to those who need to maintain a bit of home in the middle of the new. A book of food, of fun, of family -- a book of love.

WARNING: HOME CHEF AT WORK Fine dining at home with family and friends is one of life's true pleasures, yet the kitchen can be a dangerous place. Fire, electricity, heat, scalding hot water, smoke, sharp knives and culinary gizmos and gadgets all present dangers that would not go unnoticed in any environment other than the kitchen. Combined with wine and alcohol, it's no wonder that accidental kitchen fires are the #1 source of home fires and fire injuries, with cuts, burns, bruises and choking incidents the leading reasons for hospital emergency room visits. The Home Chef's Emergency Medical Guide is a useful kitchen companion for every home chef, whether he or she is toiling over a sizzling saute pan, wielding a razor-sharp Japanese chopping knife or blowtorching a creme brulee. While not a substitute for professional medical treatment, this is a first-line guide to prevention and emergency care amid the mayhem that often occurs preparing a fine meal at home. Jack Sholl is a science and medical writer. Illustrations: Jamie Cooper Editorial direction: Veronica Rodriguez
