The Essential Finger Food Cookbook

The Essential Cookbook

by Wendy Stephen (Editor)

Finger food is made to be shared with friends, but with an emphasis on simplicity and taste. Fresh ingredients create Eastern treats from dim sum to sushi; a cool plate of antipasto is perfect for a summer lunch; and simple but mouthwatering tapas and meze can be passed around at a party. With over 600 full-color photographs, we see that finger food can be exciting and a bit risky -- even the most cautious will try a new taste sensation if it's only one bite! But, there is one thing that all finger food should be -- utterly irresistible.

Reviews

[Sana Abdulla]

A good book with an abundance of recipes, there are chapters on Indian, Asian, Middle Eastern and Mexican bites, albeit with a slightly western idea of what these flavours should be. There is also sushi and sweet bites, so all in all it is a pretty good collection, and covers a lot of ingredients.
Update: I tried several recipes, none of them worked if I stuck to the ingredients, some things were too little or too much, so this book is doable if you have experience, or need ideas.

[Scott Andrews]

A keeper. So many ideas that are so very useful. A lot of familiar items you simply forget, like mini pizzas and twists, or Parmesan Tuile cones. You have to be a serious killjoy not to love this book. Well done.

[Sam]

Only two recipes that were somewhat interesting to me.

[Marian]

I love fiddly appetizers, so I am biased on these appetizer books, Makes me want to throw a ladies tea!

[Bluetiful Hadeel]

This cook book helped me a lot for a last minute event. It's easy to follow and all the recipes that I have tried from it were so succeccful.
I totally recommend this book for everyone even if you have never cooked before :D

Enjoy!
