As the editor of the best-selling culinary icons Martha
Stewart and Ina Garten (Barefoot Contessa), as well as such
noted food authorities as Diana Kennedy and Anne Willan, Roy
Finamore shaped many of the most popular and accessible
cookbooks of our time. Finamore himself began cooking as a
young boy, learning from his mother and Italian grandmother.
Working alongside chefs to streamline their recipes for the
home cook, he has earned a reputation as a stylish simplifier.
In Tasty, he brings to bear the lessons from more than a
decade spent at the pinnacle of the food world. The 200
deftly easy, unpretentious recipes show the influence of
French and Italian traditions and are accompanied by many
tips and techniques from Finamore"s abundant experience in
the kitchen. Tasty offers ample testimony to the idea that a
meal doesn"t need to be a showoff event to be uncommonly good.
