A Master Breakfast/Brunch Book

This book is truly worth its weight. Janericco has put together master recipes that any and all (including myself) can make with superb directions. The book is filled with almost every type of edible food you can imagine. The format of the book is wonderful making breakfast and brunch a cinch to put together. The book is comprised of sevearal chapter beginning with drinks. There is a long list of drinks to choose from alcholic and non-alchoholic, hot and cold. After this section comes the quick breads and pastries, including recipes for bran muffins, cheese muffins and more. Then comes the yeast breads, cakes, scones, a formidable list including all of the b & b regulars such as challah, brioche and its non -yeast alternative, as with doughnuts, with varaitions. There are crumb cakes, muffins and scones with jelly/jam and fillings inclusions (yes there are recipes for those also). There are crepes pancakes, and waffles in abundance. After are two section on eggs and quiche. While there are only a nice handful of quiche and variations, there are pages ontop of pages of egg recipes, technique and style. Mr. Janerrico leaves nothing to be desired here. Then we have our meat sections, fish and shelfish, poultry, beef, pork (ham, bacon, etc.) and more. Vegetable and pasta follows, fruits and basic sauces and preparation top off this book. Also, somewhere in all of this this chef has even managed a small section on appetizers. If that's not enough I do not know what is. The master chef has done a master job. Again, the recipes in here are easy and very simple. The techniques decribed are simple and the direction is just that, direct, without scaring you or me... Learning how to cook doesn't have to be scary when you heve such a wonderful guide with wonderful recipes for you to make and all to enjoy. Mr. Janerricco being the teacher that he is teaches us how to get along by ourselves just fine. His fruits dessert book accomplishes the same thing ie. ease and understanding. Two great books. Highly recommended. Enjoy! Fabulous fruit desserts: Their preparation, presentation & creation
