Sheila Lukins November 21, 2008

In her latest cookbook, Ten: All the Foods We Love and Ten Perfect Recipes for Each, Sheila Lukins identifies 32 of our favorite foods, from prime rib and other important roasts to perfect hors doeuvres. Then she obsessively offers the ten very best recipes for each - the ten best mashed potatoes, ten best Sunday dinners, ten best cakes. With more than 300 recipes, including dishes from top chefs (and Sheilas good friends), such as Tom Colicchios Roasted Rack of Pork, Judy Rodgerss Zuni Caf Roast Chicken with Bread Salad, Anthony Bourdains Choucroute Garni, Tom Valentis Red Wine and Tomato Braised Duck and others, Ten is truly a celebration of the best of the best. Sheila is one of Americas most beloved food writers - The Silver Palate Cookbook, The Silver Palate Good Times Cookbook, The New Basics Cookbook, and the All Around the World Cookbook have more than 5.5 million copies in print. Ten will quickly become your new favorite! Tonight, Sheila demonstrates and serves some of her favorite starters and small plates for the holiday season. Enjoy these recipes from Ten: Stuffed Eggs, Colombe d'Or Crudite with Anchoive, Spiced Goat Cheese Slather served on Ficelle Toasts, chocolate orange tea cake, and a holiday cocktail that will impress all of your guests: Pomegranate Coupe de Champagne.
