High Flavor, Low-fat Pasta Cookbook: Steven Raichlen's

"In the Tower of Babel of the world's cuisines, one dish is universally understood: pasta. Savored around the world, pasta and noodle dishes have exploded on the American scene in the last decade - fueled by our growing health consciousness and our desire for satisfying, inexpensive, nutritious meals that can be prepared quickly and easily." "Beginning with new, healthy versions of classic sauces like pesto and bolognese, High-Flavor, Low-Fat Pasta features expert low-fat remakes of perennial favorites such as A New Spaghetti with Clams and Pepper Confetti Macaroni and Cheese. The book is also filled with the highly spiced international recipes that have become Raichlen's trademark. Using fresh herbs, tongue-tingling chilies, and tangy condiments from Asia and the Caribbean, Raichlen creates exciting dishes with greatly reduced fat, ranging from Thai Noodle "Bouillabaisse" to Curried Orzo Salad and Tex-Mex Arrabbiata." "Complete with nutritional analyses and punctuated by stunning photographs, the forty recipes presented here demonstrate why pasta is considered by many to be the perfect food."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
