Grilling

Grilling has become one of the most popular ways to prepare all types of meals, from hearty breakfasts to decadent desserts. Whatever the weather, grilling foods gives them a warm, smoky flavor and the relative ease of preparation can not be ignored. The Culinary Institute of America, the world's premier culinary college, has done it again with their new cookbook perfect for anyone who loves to get behind a grill: Grilling. This beautiful book contains more than 175 tantalizing kitchen-tested recipes that highlight exotic flavors from all over the world.

With nearly 100 full-color photographs and helpful step-by-step instructions and preparation tips, Grilling transports the home cook to far-away places such as Mexico with Baja-Style Fish Tacos; then to Jamaica for Jerked Pork Chops. Cross the Atlantic and enjoy the flavors of Greece with Spicy Lamb Kebabs, the exotic flavors of the Middle East with Grilled Honey-Spiced Chicken and Pakistani-Style Lamb Patties, Tandoori-Style Chicken with Yogurt Masala, and Grilled Shrimp Paste on Sugar Cane. There are also plenty of recipes found in backyards across the United States.

The Culinary Institute of America has even come up with grilling recipes for breakfast. Start your day with delicacies such as Buckwheat Flapjacks with Hibiscus Honey or French Toast with Honey Orange Butter and Orange Segments fresh off the grill. And don't forget dessert. Grilling has a chapter devoted entirely to tempting sweet confections made on the grill such as Bananas Foster Tartlets and Grilled Banana Split. Grilling has something for everyone, both amateur grillers and self-proclaimed grilling masters.
