At first glance, these recipes look WAY too pretty and tasty to be as straightforward as the title promises. They are, in fact, both pretty and tasty, but they are also ridiculously easy to make and amazingly difficult to screw up. This book will have you braising and grilling without even realizing it. And best of all, the author includes tips with every recipe on how to make part of the dish ahead of time or ingredients that might be added or substituted. In fact, this book subtly teaches you how to trust your instincts in cooking. Start with this book, and you'll be throwing together your own recipes before you know it!
