Jacques Pépin more fast food my way

In the companion to the twenty-six-part PBS series, the master chef applies his skills to more simple meals that can be prepared quickly, in a sequel to his previous collection of the same title. This book includes such dishes as scallop pancakes, cured salmon morsels, stuffed pork fillet on grape tomatoes, and mini almond cakes in raspberry sauce. From "a great teacher and truly a master technician" (Julia Child), this is a cookbook full of faster than ever food, including dozens of elegant "minute" recipes. The author does himself one better, with recipes that are faster, fresher, and easier than ever. Only he could have come up with dishes so innovative and uncomplicated such as: Nearly no-cook recipes fit for company: Cured Salmon Morsels, Glazed Sausage Bits ; Smashing appetizers: Scallop Pancakes, zipped together in a blender (10 minutes) ; Almost instant soups: Creamy Leek and Mushroom Soup (7 minutes) ; Fast, festive dinners: Stuffed Pork Fillet on Grape Tomatoes (18 minutes) ; Stunning desserts: Mini Almond Cakes in Raspberry Sauce (15 minutes).
