Summary

One potato, two potato, 100+ potato recipes that make the most of this low-fat potassium powerhouse—including one-course baked potato meals! 
 
Can the easy-to-cook, inexpensive, low-fat potato turn up with chicken and peanuts as the star of an exotic stir-fry? Can plump baked potatoes, topped with everything from shrimps and tofu to chicken and chili, win acclaim as delicious one-course meals? Yes—as these one-hundred-plus recipes prove! 
 
Barbara Grunes, nationally known for her innovative and nutritionally aware recipes, makes it easy for both novice and seasoned cooks to transform bakers, broilers, red, new, sweet, and every other kind of potato into imaginative appetizers, hearty soups, exciting stir-fries, ten different potato salads, a dozen outdoor barbecues, and delicious sides, breads—even desserts. 
 
And to “top” it off, Grunes presents no less than twenty-four luscious, low-fat toppings that recreate baked potatoes as main-course delights—Thai shrimp, eggplant Parmesan, ratatouille, Moroccan chicken, turkey chili, Cantonese stir-fry, Spanakopita, asparagus and mushrooms, tofu Veracruzana, Provencal vegetables, mushrooms and cheese, and many other ingredients. From Vichyssoise to Cuban mashed potato pudding to Bohemian dessert pancakes, this health-happy collection delivers both great taste and the incredible nutrition of the potato.

    The remarkable story of a refugee from Soviet Ukraine who found his way to upstate New York—and changed the American wine industry. Dr. Konstantin Frank forever changed the palate of American wine. Forced from his home in Soviet Ukraine during World War II, he was astounded by the terroir when he arrived in the Finger Lakes region, an agricultural scientist from a foreign land desperately looking for work. Against popular notions, he believed that the vinifera grapes that produced some of Europe’s and California’s finest wines would prosper in this part of New York State, but was met with skepticism and resistance.   He proved his detractors wrong, and because he shared his knowledge freely with others, Konstantin’s innovativeness has allowed the region to produce some of the world’s finest Riesling, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and other varietals. Four generations of Franks have continued his legacy, and their winery has won record numbers of prestigious awards every year. This book tells the inspiring story.  Includes photographs
