Few people know great cooking like Craig Claiborne and Pierre Franey, and no one can better communicate the creation of fabulous meals using clear and simple techniques and easily available ingredients.

Now the remarkable team that has already given us The New York Times Cookbook, Craig Claiborne's Gourmet Diet, and The New York Times 60-Minute Gourmet offer 600 scrumptious recipes from the pages of The New York Times that have never been collected in book form before. Featuring international gourmet delights and American regional favorites, using more herbs and spices and less salt, butter, and cream, celebrating the light cooking of nouvelle cuisine as well as rich, delicious desserts, this is a cookbook that belongs on every cook's shelf.
