The freezer is an invaluable piece of kitchen equipment. Convenience foods are useful, but it is worth making space in the freezer for some home-cooked, nutritious dishes, too. Far from increasing time spent in the kitchen, a freezer will reduce it. Cooking in bulk can be much more economical and will mean you can have food in the freezer ready for when you are short of time. Many dishes can be defrosted quickly in the microwave, so you may not need to think ahead. This book contains over 30 perfect freezer recipes with at-a-glance guides to defrosting and reheating. There are dishes for all occasions, from tasty after-work casseroles to impressive dinner-party creations that allow you to be with your guests. Whether you are planning a party or need a supply of suppers, this handy volume has plenty of ideas. Part of the Cook’s Kitchen Series, this book has been written by a professional chef and all the recipes have been properly tested in our chef’s own kitchen. Ingredients are measured out in metric and imperial and US cup measures are also included.
