These include Stuffed Scallops on Mushroom Rice; Chicken Breasts on Mashed Cauliflower with Red Salsa; Pasta, Ham, and Vegetable Gratin; and Apple, Pecan, and Apricot Crumble. The "my way" of the title can mean the use of time-saving tools (Pépin uses pressure cookers to achieve easy stews like his beef short-rib, mushroom, and potato dish) and convenience foods (canned black bean soup or sweet potatoes for new soup versions). Generally, though, the Pépin approach emphasizes the use of foods that are themselves quickly cooked, like chicken breasts or beef fillet and that can be made flavorful with equally fast-to-fix accompaniments, like his salsa mayonnaise or his tomato-olive sauce.<p> Fast is, of course, a relative term, and readers will find more than a few dishes in the book that may require more time or attention than they're willing to spend on a daily basis. But overall, the book offers enough easily made recipes, and super-time-saving formulas, like Instant Vegetable Soup, to make it a true cooking resource. <I>--Arthur Boehm</I> 31800 1 9 2004 Jacques Pepin Fast Food My Way total:112|5:34|4:53|3:19|2:6|1:0| 112 451 153 22 5 1 false false Sat Dec 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Thu Jan 31 12:40:56 -0800 2008 Thu Jan 31 12:41:58 -0800 2008 3 0 false false Mon Mar 02 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Thu Mar 05 21:00:20 -0800 2009 Thu Mar 05 21:02:03 -0800 2009 more...]]> 4 1 false false Thu Jan 01 12:38:24 -0800 2009 Thu Jan 01 12:40:51 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Sat Jul 11 19:16:25 -0700 2009 Sat Jul 11 19:18:05 -0700 2009 5 1 false false Wed Mar 25 09:39:51 -0700 2009 Wed Mar 25 09:40:45 -0700 2009 4 1 false false Thu Dec 11 11:08:44 -0800 2008 Thu Dec 11 11:09:35 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Mon Nov 30 07:46:10 -0800 2009 Mon Nov 30 07:46:41 -0800 2009 4 0 false false Sun Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Thu Jul 30 08:22:46 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 30 08:23:38 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Sun Jun 28 23:44:06 -0700 2009 Sun Jun 28 23:44:30 -0700 2009 4 1 false false Mon Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 22 14:14:26 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 22 14:23:48 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Tue Jun 19 18:06:53 -0700 2007 Tue Jun 19 18:33:24 -0700 2007 more...]]> 4 0 false false Wed Aug 08 08:42:13 -0700 2007 Thu Nov 01 13:34:56 -0700 2007 more...]]> 4 0 false false Sun Nov 11 11:13:40 -0800 2007 Sun Nov 11 11:15:43 -0800 2007 4 0 false false Mon Feb 18 17:19:42 -0800 2008 Mon Feb 18 17:22:11 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Sat Aug 30 18:15:44 -0700 2008 Sat Aug 30 18:28:02 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Wed Jan 23 06:10:16 -0800 2008 Wed Jan 23 06:10:16 -0800 2008 2 0 false false Tue Aug 14 14:28:37 -0700 2007 Tue Aug 14 14:29:12 -0700 2007 5 0 false false Tue Jul 15 19:55:13 -0700 2008 Tue Jul 15 19:55:59 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Wed Feb 27 14:55:30 -0800 2008 Wed Feb 27 14:55:58 -0800 2008 5 0 false false Mon Dec 10 14:20:49 -0800 2007 Mon Dec 10 14:21:39 -0800 2007 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=31565
