New Recipes for the Cuisinart Food Processor

Rate this book
From the James Beard Foundation:
It was love at first sight. Traveling in the south of France, Beard saw a food processor at a friend’s restaurant, and he had to have one. He arranged to have a Cuisinart shipped to his home in New York. Back in the States, Beard and his protégé Carl Jerome wrote a booklet of processor recipes that included Beard’s own recipes as well as those of friends Craig Claiborne, Marcella Hazan, Madhur Jaffrey, Barbara Kafka, Jacques Pépin, and André Soltner. According to Beverly Bundy’s The Century in Food, it was the recommendations of Beard and Julia Child that helped Cuisinart become “so hot during the 1976 Christmas season that retailers [sold] empty boxes as promises for future delivery.”
