MENUS A TROIS: The Soup, Bread, and Salad Cookbook

For those who think a bowl of homemade soup, a chunk of home-baked bread, and a healthful, crunchy salad constitute the perfect at-home lunch or supper, this cookbook is a godsend. Here are 50 intriguing combos of creative soup, bread and salad recipes, from the down-home (cream-of-vegetable soup, herb bread, carrot-raisin salad) to elegant (lobster bisque, apple-mint muffins, Belgian endive salad). Some of the soups are unrecognizable and unpronounceable at first, such as cioppino, chlodnik, stracciatelle, sateh, posole, scungilli, and kishik; but with the aid of introductory explanations and clear recipe directions, the previously unknown becomes an adventure. Some of the breads are quick, and the complementary salads are simple and direct. The authors also recommend a specific beverage for each meal.
