Book Reviews of Morton's Steak Bible: Recipes and Lore from the Legendary Steakhouse
Book Review: Morton's Steak Bible
Summary: 5 Stars
Great find! Especially if Morton's is a favorite spot for steaks etc. The recipes are straight forward and anyone who thinks a great steak is hard to prepare will be surprised. The secret as you can see with this "bible" is not to "over-do" it with spices, marinades etc., let the flavor of the beef shine through. Highly reccommended.
Summary of Morton's Steak Bible: Recipes and Lore from the Legendary Steakhouse
You've dreamed about it all week: the prime porterhouse patiently waiting in your butcher's case for you to bring home wrapped in brown paper. You can't wait to fire up the grill, season the well-marbled red meat, and slap it over the hot coals. You can hear the sizzle as it cooks, smell the tantalizing aroma; you can practically taste the perfectly seared, juicy steak. You never intend to overcook it, but sometimes you do, ruining a thick, expensive steak.Never fear. Morton's, The Steakhouse shares the secrets that have made its name synonymous with fine steakhouse dining for twenty-seven years to ensure that the home cook's steak turns out exactly as he imagines it. Morton's Steak Bible offers indispensable tips, steakhouse lore, and more than 100 irresistible recipes perfect for meat lovers, grillers, and fans of their seventy restaurants worldwide.
Before divulging Morton's recipes for every cut from filet mignon and T-bone to skirt steak and ground sirloin, Morton's Steak Bible starts at the very beginning, providing excellent tips on how to cook like a steakhouse: what to look for when selecting meat, how to cook it on a grill or under a broiler, and of course, how to time your masterpiece to perfection. There are also "Celebrity Clips" sprinkled throughout, amusing anecdotes about visits to Morton's by its most famous guests, including Frank Sinatra, Tiger Woods, Queen Latifah, and Jackie Gleason.
In addition to world-famous steak recipes, Morton's Steak Bible includes chapters featuring everything you'll need to round out your table, such as the Key Lime Mortini and Smoked Salmon Pinwheels in "Cocktails and the Food We Eat with Them"; Salad Ni?oise with Pan-Seared Tuna and Velvet Lobster Bisque in "Salads and Soups"; Baked Lemon-Oregano Chicken and Lamb Chops with Baked Apples in "Other Steakhouse Favorites"; Creamed Spinach and Hash Brown Potatoes in "Side Dishes"; and Morton's legendary Hot Chocolate Cake and Upside-Down Apple Pie in "Desserts."
With 3.3 million guests dining at its upscale restaurants throughout the United States, Canada, and Asia every year, Morton's has clearly earned its place as the authority on all things steak. Beautifully illustrated throughout with vibrant full-color photographs, Morton's Steak Bible is the definitive guide to steakhouse fare and will instantly become a coveted addition to the home of any meat lover or grilling aficionado.
