From the dust jacket:
What modern host or hostess has not felt the need, many times over, for “that special recipe” that can put life into an entire luncheon or dinner … for a dish with the quality of uniqueness so necessary for a memorable guest occasion?
This book brings you many hundred of just such recipes – together with menus and complete party plans – that will fill your needs for almost every conceivable entertainment affair: luncheons, dinner parties, outdoor meals, brunches, late suppers, picnics, and many other special functions. And it offers new ideas galore for light entertaining with tempting appetizers, snacks, beverages, spreads, and dips.
Here are foods to appeal to every taste. Many are favorite traditional dishes prepared in exciting new ways, while others have a foreign flavor and are on the exotic side. The party ideas range from informal get-togethers for young people, to elaborate menus for distinctive and elegant guest dinners.
All of the recipes and menus in this book are especially designed for entertaining. Not only are they delicious and different, but each one is pre-planned so you will have less cooking to do, particularly when your guests are present. Special descriptions accompanying each recipe tell you just how the dish will look and taste when it is served.
In addition, special informational panels (such as a Common Sense Guide to Wines, Ideas for Presenting Appetizers, Cheese Serving Guide, etc.) present a wealth of practical, valuable knowledge about all phases of entertaining.
The Sunset Cook Book for Entertaining will be one of your most indispensable cook books; it is a never-ending source of the unique in foods, for guest occasions that are to be remembered.
