I was pleasantly surprised by the content (both recipes and photographs) of this book. Beautifully illustrated, the book is at home in the kitchen or on the coffee table. The Sun-dried Tomato and Pesto dip, with only three ingredients, is just one example of an easy recipe for the unexpected guest.
