The new recipes Casas includes reflect the influence of the innovative cooking in Spain today--dishes seasoned with soy sauce or balsamic vinegar; ingredients wrapped in flaky phyllo pastry; accents of goat cheese and arugula; foie gras in elegant presentations. <p/>With Spanish cooking at the forefront of today's cuisine, this "exceptional book by the leading American authority on the foods of Spain" (as Craig Claiborne dubbed it in 1985) is a must for every adventurous cook in America today.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Penelope Casas is the author of <i>La Cocina de Mamá</i>, <i> Paella!, ¡Delicioso!, Discovering Spain</i>, <i> </i>and<i> The Foods and Wines of Spain.</i> She has written about Spanish food and travel for <i>The New York Times, Gourmet, Saveur, </i>and <i>Bon Appétit</i>.
