• 80 artful and easy recipes in a glass
• Gentle cooking and dramatic serving in a glass
• The new trend in cuisine

This book presents with the help of 80 recipes – ranging from amuse-bouches and apéritifs, soups and starters to main courses and desserts – the appealing preparation and presentation of dishes in a glass. Served in a glass, the different layers produce astounding effects and the dishes hence produce a particular taste sensation when the layers get mixed while eating. Recipes in a glass are easy to prepare, simple to arrange and look utterly artful. The book not only shows how to dramatically present dishes in a glass, but in more than half of the recipes the food is marinated, cooked, stewed or roasted directly in the glass. Glass is suited perfectly for slow cooking of meat and fish at low temperature in a vacuum (Sous-Vide method) which has many advantages: The food remains succulent, vitamins and mineral material are preserved and preparation is utmost simple. Baking and roasting in a glass is just as subtle and makes a pleasant change in your cuisine.
