Barefoot Contessa Back to Basics

Barefoot Contessa Back to Basics

When I talk about getting back to basics, I'm not talking about simple mashed potatoes or a plain roast chicken.

People who have had this experience with you will go home feeling nurtured and loved, and the good news is, so will you.

Barefoot Contessa Parties!

Barefoot Contessa Parties!

From the time I was married in 1968, I loved planning parties, cooking, and getting together with my friends. But in the beginning, I did some truly awful parties. As time went on I learned that small dinner parties were often more satisfying than big cocktail parties, that easy food meant I would spend more time with my friends, and that the music at a party is sometimes more important than the food. But most of all, I learned to stay focused: Parties are “recess” for grown-ups, and I want everyone to go home saying: “Wasn’t that fun!”

The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook

The Barefoot Contessa Cookbook

At Barefoot Contessa we made hundreds of thousands of banana crunch muffins over the years, so I know the recipe works. Grilled salmon salad, sugar snap peas with black sesame seeds, and fresh corn salad with basil – these are the dishes that made the store so popular over the years, and you can make them at home exactly as we made them at the store. When I find recipes that work, I use them over and over again.
