"Every good caterer has a special trademark, and Martha Stewart's is undoubtedly her fabulous hors d'oeuvres. Shrimp sauteed with peppers and served on mini-tortillas, grilled oysters with magenta butter, cucumbers topped with smoked trout mousse, Swedish pancakes with apples and creme fraiche, corn cups filled with green chili, tiny potatoes topped with sour cream and caviar, and wild-rice pancakes with red pepper jelly are just a few of the over150 luscious recipes and recipe variations in this book. Mrs. Stewart shows us that hors d'oeuvres, or "finger foods," can be a wonderful, creative way to entertain friends at almost any hour of the day, for any occasion, and can be either a light accompaniment to drinks or a deliciously satisfying substitue for a meal. From a breakfast buffet featuring tiny pastry shells filled with scrambled eggs, orange muffins with smoked turkey, and crepes filled with pears and cinnamon, to a barbecue at the beach featuring grilled tiger shrimp with fresh dill, stone crab claws with four-pepper sauce, and green mussels mariniere -- there are hors d'oeuvre parties to delight everyone. An introduction by Mrs. Stewart gives invaluable tips and advice for planning the perfect hor d''oeuvre party, and in the last chapter she includes step-by-step master recipes for the pastry, crepes, pancakes, and puffs that are a basic part of so many delicious hors d'oeuvres. Martha Stewart's Hors d'Oeuveres is an inspiring, indispensable guide to an exciting new way to entertain." -- from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 006792
