This wonderful book can easily grace your coffee table with its lovely pictures and elegant presentation. However, where it reallly belongs is on your kitchen island (or counter) propped open to whatever page gets you started preparing some of these marvelous recipes. Where so many cook books try to do everything at once -- picture perfection, lots of recipes, complicated (price justifying?) steps and maneuvers -- The Last Course is, instead, a veritable bible of delicious, doable (is that really a word?), sensible, nutritious dishes. Most every recipe is one page or less, a real break from some of the over-the-top recipes in other books. The Roasted Apricots with Chamoille, for example, has only 4 ingredients and one-half a page of instructions. And it looks picture perfect to boot! A real keeper. This one stays in the kitchen, just within reach!!!

NYの女性パティシエ クラウディア フレミングのレシピ本です。洗練されていて、でもフランスかぶれでなくNY風。写真のないレシピもたくさんあるのである程度、レシピを読めば感じがわかる人向けです。

Claudia Fleming, dal 1994 pasticcera presso la Gramercy Tavern di New York, è entrata di diritto nella storia della ristorazione americana; il suo The Last Course, alla sua prima edizione più di vent'anni fa, aggiornò i canoni classici della pasticceria da ristorazione, ma ancora oggi pare fresco di stampa e di contenuti. Scorrendo l'indice si ha un colpo d'occhio immediato: 175 ricette di dessert con frutti di bosco, frutta con nocciolo, fichi, meloni, uva, pere, mele, susine, agrumi, frutta tropicale... quindi con vegetali, noci, erbe e fiori, spezie, essenze, cioccolato, formaggi e creme, e infine i piatti d'autore. Le cura dei minimi particolari, le piccole variazioni di grandi classici e la sintonia assoluta con il menu proposto dal Gramercy, sono i caratteri distintivi della Fleming; le ricette sono riproducibili, ma pesi e misure dipendono dal sistema consuetudinario statunitense (cucchiaio, tazza, ecc.) e necessitano di una conversione. Ottimo per suggerimenti su come chiudere in bellezza pranzi o cene sofisticati.

I like to cook and bake. I also enjoy cookbooks. This one is full of great recipes. Instructions are clear and the pictures are beautiful. I'm still wondering why my desserts don't match the pictures some of the time. Oh, well...
