Some of the recipes in this book include raw or poached eggs. When consumed raw, there is always the risk
that bacteria, which is killed by proper cooking, may be present. For this reason, always buy certified
salmonella-free eggs from a reliable grocer, storing them in the refrigerator until they are served. Because
of the health risks associated with the consumption of bacteria that can be present in raw eggs, they should
not be consumed by infants, small children, pregnant women, the elderly, or any persons who may be
immunocompromised. The author and publisher expressly disclaim responsibility for any adverse effects
that may result from the use or application of the recipes and information contained in this book.
