The James Beard award–winning dish entertains is a modern classic. Adhering to the style and approach of Trish Magwood’s dish cooking studio and catering company, this gorgeous cookbook—available now for the first time in paperback—shows you how to entertain the “dish” way. And what is the dish way? It’s a kitchen tapas party instead of a formal sit-down dinner, a cool shooter of soup instead of a standard bowl, a stand-up nibbles spread instead of a buffet. The dish way is the new easy, affordable, fun and stylish. With straightforward, professional recipes and stunning photographs, dish entertains is lush and accessible, easy to cook from and a delight to read. Insiders’ tips, advice and expertise from caterers appear in sidebars throughout. Novice to advanced home cooks will benefit equally from this book, as Magwood inspires us to entertain with style and confidence.
This book investigates the core question of how to host social gatherings that balance professional culinary standards with an accessible, modern, and relaxed home-cooking approach. Trish Magwood, founder of the Dish cooking studio and a James Beard award-winning author, leverages her extensive catering background to demystify the art of hosting. She presents a framework that prioritizes ease, affordability, and style, moving away from rigid, formal dining structures in favor of more fluid, interactive culinary experiences.
