Text of introduction by Joseph Planta:

I am Planta: On the Line. In Vancouver, this is THECOMMENTARY.CA.

Soon the holiday season will be upon us, and we’re going to need to get Christmas gifts and the sort. A great gift idea is the new cookbook from Chatelaine magazine: Modern Classics. With over 250 recipes from the magazine’s test kitchen, there’s something for everyone and every situation. Say you’re coming home from work and need something fast and easy, or if you’re planning a dinner for group of guests—you’ll find that here. Chatelaine’s Claire Tansey is in Vancouver now to talk about the book. She joined the magazine as its food editor earlier this year. With her associates, the test kitchen at Chatelaine develops and tests over 500 recipes a year. Before joining the magazine she’s worked as a chef, writer, critic and developer, and her work has appeared in sundry publications. Modern Classics is published by Wiley. Please welcome to the Planta: On th Line program, Claire Tansey; Good morning, Ms. Tansey.
