THE HOW TO KEEP HIM (AFTER YOU'VE CAUGHT HIM) COOKBOOK

by Jinx & Judy Peny Kragen ‧ RELEASE DATE: April 19, 1968

These long-winded, lireless young ladies know their asparagus (cook upright, boiling the tough ends; steaming the tender tops. And no heavy sauce, just butter!) In spite of the girl-chatter and cutesy titles for the dishes, grouped, initially, for the hungry male in his many varieties and moods, later into in-law feeding, etc., the girls seem to have boundless imagination and a fearless bravado in combining compatible ingredients. How about raw spinach salad with bacon crumbs, grapefruit with dry vermouth, baked tomatoes with a touch of mustard? Intimate tips on party-giving and menus, and desserts are a flash in the pan. An admiring word must be said for ""De Gaulle's Gateau."" (a re-baked pound cake with preserves and cream sherry) and the authors have de gall to admit they cannot make gravy-something of a first! By the authors of Saucepans and the Single Girl, now married but hardly matronly.
