For the first time, trusted and beloved cookbook author Ina
Garten, the Barefoot Contessa, answers the number one
question she receives from cooks: Can I make it ahead? If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in front of the stove at
your own party, scrambling to get everything to the table at
just the right moment, Ina is here to let you in on her
secrets! Thanks to twenty years of running a specialty food
store and fifteen years writing cookbooks, she has learned
exactly which dishes you can prep, assemble, or cook ahead
of time. Whether you’re hosting a party or simply making dinner on a
hectic weeknight, Ina gives you lots of amazing recipes that
taste just as good—or even better!—when they’re made in advance. In Make It Ahead, each recipe includes clear instructions
for what you can do ahead of time, and how far in advance,
so you can cook with confidence and eliminate last-minute
surprises. Make a pitcher of Summer Rosé Sangria filled with
red berries, let it chill overnight for the flavors to
develop, and you have a delicious drink to offer your
friends the minute they arrive. Simmer a pot of Wild Mushroom & Farro Soup, enjoy a bowl for
lunch, and freeze the rest for a chilly evening. You can
prep the kale, Brussels sprouts, and lemon vinaigrette for
Winter Slaw ahead of time and simply toss them together
before serving. Assemble French Chicken Pot Pies filled with
artichokes and fresh tarragon a day in advance and then pop
them in the oven half an hour before dinner. And for dessert, everyone needs the recipe for Ina’s
Decadent (gluten-free!) Chocolate Cake topped with
Make-Ahead Whipped Cream. Ina also includes recipes for the
biggest cooking day of the year—Thanksgiving! Her Ultimate
Make-Ahead Roast Turkey and Gravy with Onions & Sage may
just change your life. With beautiful photographs and hundreds of invaluable
make-ahead tips, this is your new go-to guide for preparing
meals that are stress-free yet filled with those fabulously
satisfying flavors that you have come to expect from the
Barefoot Contessa.
