Aprašymas

A month by month culinary scrapbook that brings out the reveler in every home cook



 

Ali Larter is a busy actress, well known for her roles on NBC show Heroes and movies like Varsity Blues and Legally Blonde. But when she is not on set, she is usually throwing a dinner party or entertaining at home in some way. In fact, Ali has been cooking and entertaining all her life, and in an instant, she can whip together a wonderful meal, whether it’s for a family Sunday brunch, a spontaneous Superbowl party, or an elegant (but not stuffy) New Year’s Eve dinner. Her parties seem effortless, but it always hasn’t been that easy for her. In fact, at Ali’s first dinner party, she made the common rookie mistake by putting too much stress on herself to make things perfect. Needless to say, with hungry guests, a burnt hand, a broken air-conditioner, and a mouse crawling across her fourth floor New York City walk up, the night ended in disaster. Through the years of trial and error, she has learned that while looking effortless takes some effort, cooking is not about being perfect but about having a great time—  and now, she’s eager to share her passion and knowledge and has curated her favorite go-to menus into this wonderful cookbook.


From her jalapeño cheddar skillet cornbread, to crab pots with lemon aioli, lamb chop lollipops, strawberry mint cake, and for thirsty revelers, her eucalyptus gin martinis, Larter’s mouthwatering recipes and inspiring party ideas are broken down by month so you can take her lead through the seasons with celebrations like an October Harvest Party, a January Detox, and a July Americana BBQ. Brimming with personality, beautiful and intimate photos, and Larter's personal touch as a perfectly disheveled, sassy, effortless host, you’ll be reaching for your copy of Kitchen Revelry again and again.
