Both these books are devoted to healthful eating, but in some ways they couldn't be more different. Brody, the New York Times health columnist and author of Jane Brody's Good Food Book ( LJ 11/1/85), offers some 500 low-fat, low-cholesterol, low-salt recipes. Some are adaptations of food magazine recipes, some come from her readers, some are familiar favorites that have been reworked. Hers is satisfying, homey, but not always particularly exciting food. Many recipes involve long lists of ingredients. Nevertheless, Brody's following guarantees that this will be much in demand. Previewed in Prepub Alert, LJ 6/15/90. Schneider, a former chef, is a food writer and contributing editor of Food & Wine. Her healthful, low-calorie dishes are fresh, imaginative, and visually stunning: Wild Mushroom Ragout with Polenta, Mesclun Salad with Pan-fried Tuna, Phyllo Pear Tart with Fried Raspberries. Although the price may make this a luxury item for some libraries, it's a diet book like no other. Highly recommended.Copyright 1990 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Reviews for Jane Brody's Good Food Gourmet (Hardcover) This book taught me to cook! I was bored with my other cookbooks, always looking for recipes but too timid to try ones with "scary" ingredients like eggplant, tofu, canned salmon, dried beans, etc. Then I discovered this book, and became inspired by Jane Brody's encouraging descriptions of various dishes ("Lovely to look at and lovely to savor!"), along with comforting recommendations from her tasters ("Every taster begged for the recipe..."). I decided to go for it!Before long, I was turning out some of the most delicious, interesting, healthful meals I've ever enjoyed! Without even trying, my husband and I both lost weight, eating more veggies & less meat-- with no loss of taste! It seems whenever I make a Jane Brody dish for someone, they always ask for the recipe...and they NEVER suspect they've eaten "health food.
Reviews for Jane Brody's Good Food Gourmet (Paperback) I am a tremendous fan of all Jane's cookbooks and this one is my all-time favorite. Not only are the recipes easy to follow and delicious, they also really do make enough to entertain friends and family. I have made many of the recipes in this cookbook and many have become family standards.
Reviews for Jane Brody's Good Food Gourmet (Hardcover) This is an excellent cookbook! Out of the 25 or so cookbooks on my shelf I can honestly say that Jane Brody's book has been used the most. The recipes are low in fat and very tasty. Many may be prepared in advance. The only negative is that Brody does not provide the reader with number of calories or nutritional information for the recipes.
