This sumptuous new cookbook of over 200 mouth-watering recipes focuses on nutritionally proven ingredients that are as tasty as they are healthy.
In this book, Jeannette Seaver, a gourmet chef and author of several cookbooks, offers a rich panoply of recipes using delicious traditional Mediterranean-diet ingredients: vegetables, legumes, fresh fruit, nuts, cereals, olive oil, and fish, with judicious amounts of red meat and poultry. Among her offerings are salmon on a bed of smoked eggplant caviar; gratin of cod and spinach; broiled marinated duck breast with grilled peaches; stuffed zucchini flowers with red pepper coulis; zucchini cakes, Greek style; Jeannette’s own bouillabaisse—and hundreds more!
Eating Mediterranean is not only wonderfully pleasing to the palate but may well prolong your life. A recent (2003) Harvard study concluded that those who followed the Mediterranean diet for four years showed a remarkable 33 percent reduction in heart disease and 24 percent reduction in cancer! Given the startling, positive statistics emanating from the recent medical studies, which demonstrate unequivocally that one can not only live substantially longer but also feel better, eating as the Mediterraneans do seems a virtual necessity. |
