It’s healthy. The Cook-Zen cooks ingredients with little or no water, which means valuable vitamins and nutrients that would normally drain off are retained. And because microwave-cooking times are extremely short, more of these nutrients are preserved. Cook-Zen recipes require very little oil, for a naturally low-fat meal. —New York Times Book Review, Summer Roundup, June 6, 2010 Forgotten Skills of Cooking 2. It’s easy. Cook-Zen recipes feature minimal ingredients that are easy to prepare. Once the pot is in the microwave, there’s no need to watch over it or stir it constantly. 3. It’s fast. The Cook-Zen works like a pressure cooker, heating foods evenly and quickly. Most of the recipes take under 10 minutes to prepare. 4. It’s delicious. The Cook-Zen brings out the natural flavors of your ingredients. Meat dishes are tender and juicy, and vegetables retain their vibrant color and crispness. 5. It’s safe. Microwave cooking is perfect for teenagers and the elderly. You’ll never have to worry about the risk of fire from leaving a pot or an open flame unattended. New!

In Their Cups 50 Cork-Popping Concoctions and Scintillating Sparklers Poems About Drinking Places, Drinks, and Drinkers A.J. Rathbun Poetry and drinking have gone together for as long as they have both existed. In Their Cups is a collection of drinking poems that features works ranging from classics by literary greats to new works by up-and-coming poets. A master mixologist, poet, and raconteur, A.J. Rathbun is the ideal curator of such a collection, which is broken down into three sections: Bars, Drinkers, and Drinks. Each section features a series of poems, along with a toast or two. Nothing distinguishes an event like champagne or sparkling wine, especially when it is blended into an elegant cocktail. A.J. Rathbun’s Champagne Cocktails presents 50 creative ways to incorporate these bubbly beverages into a range of delicious drinks. A.J.’s wit and accessible style are found throughout the beautiful four-color book, both in his insightful introduction and in each one of the cocktail recipes, which range from classics like the Bellini to more inventive blends like Eurynome’s Effervescence. 9781558324268 96 pages 5 ½ x 8 ¾ • $12.95 H arvard Common Press October 2010 18 eye-catching and inspirational, and the recipes are fun and A.J.
