Booty Foodn. Any food that causes weak knees, accelerated heartbeat, tingly body parts, and other symptoms traditionally associated with falling in love.
In the first guide for readers passionate about love and food, Jacqui Malouf, comedian and TV food personality, combines two of life's most primal drives. Equal parts naughty and nice, Booty Food is filled with laugh-out-loud advice about dating, sex, and relationships as well as more than seventy delicious yet user-friendly recipes designed to complement each stage of a long-lasting love affair.
Not just your run-of-the-mill aphrodisiac cookbook, Booty Food takes you on a culinary road trip through the major stages of a relationship-with tried and true tips on first date eating, seductive yet simple suggestions for the first home-cooked meal, menus for meeting the parents and friends, and imaginative dishes and desserts for keeping a long-term relationship hot and satisfying. Jacqui also serves up wildly original ideas for filling your 'Passion Pantry' and, when you're ready for round two, dishes out tantalizing treats and tips in 'Cheese: Nature's Viagra.'
The recipes and gorgeous photographs by Ben Fink are just as tantalizing: Fresh Oysters with Red Wine Mignonette. Mango Brie Quesadillas. Sea Bass with Green Curry-Coconut Sauce and Nectarine Pico de Gallo. Pomegranate Margaritas. Lobster Eggs Benedict Poached in Champagne Butter. And Chocolate Souffle Cake with Chocolate Glaze and Shaved Chocolate. Destined to be flour-dusted and dog-eared, Booty Food is the ultimate guide to finding your soul mate inside and outside of the kitchen.

I devour cookbooks like some do novels, and this is one of the favorites. The author's conversational style and humor are addictive, and I have reread parts of the book many times. The recipes are solid, and I have served the pomegranate margaritas at several functions. I would recommend this book to anyone who is seduced by food as well as those who would like to seduce with food.
Rating: - Booty book for Jacqui's photos...
We bought Booty Food after reading the reviews raving about the book posted on Amazon.com and because we used to enjoy Jacqui Malouf's show Hot off the Grill with Bobby Flay on Food Network Channel. However, we are extremely disappointed with the contents of Booty Food. The book is full of photos of Jacqui Malouf specifically choreographed for this book and the recipes are nothing to write home about. We had such high hopes for this book, but they all faded away after trying few recipes in the book. ... Read More
Rating: - WE LOVE THIS BOOK!
My boyfriend and I bought this book on a whim a few nights ago, and we can't stop looking at it. I loved Jacqui Malouf on Hot Off the Grill, which is why I picked it up. I'm a HUGE foodie and like nothing more than good "food porn," as in gorgeous photographs of food. This book has wonderful photography that looks like you could just pick the food right up off of the page and dig in. The pictures of her are real and not too airbrushed. I love how she talks about her own relationship with her husband. ... Read More

I have never bought a book like this before, but I've seen Jacqui on "Hot Off the Grill" and thought I would check it out. Wow, does she know how to get the juices flowing! Her recipes are great. I have tried a few and though some are complicated and require some hard to find ingredients where I live, the taste was delicious! Way to go Jacqui! When is the next book coming HOT off the presses?
Rating: - I love this cook book!!!
It's funny, it's sassy and the recipes are to die for!!! The bacon-wrapped scallops, the mango-brie quesadillas, the chocolate pudding....forget about it! And Jacqui Malouf is so funny and real that it's like cooking with a best friend. She takes the pressure to be perfect off with her hilarious commentary and her get-real approach. And, she provides all kinds of shortcuts so that you can get back to the bedroom as quickly as possible. This book would be a great gift for seasoned cooks or people ... Read More
