...Jane and Michael Stern, young, humorous and well-educated Easterners, have become the self-styled clowns of American cooking. Where other critics travel haute, they take the low road to diners, cafeterias, luncheonettes and truck stops. Their first cookbook, Square Meals, was a paean to the Dark Ages of American cooking. The authors took culinary pratfalls advocating recipes for molded salads, casseroles based on canned soups and tuna fish, etc. Their new offering, Real American Food (Knopf; $19.95), is another, far more appetizing collection of recipes gathered from assorted low-down eateries.

Acknowledges Engquist, who stayed home to be the "nurturing parent": "Jane expects people to keep up with her, but her husband and children have different drummers. We don't." The boys balk at substituting cottage or farmer cheese for cream cheese. Engquist smokes, a habit Brody unceasingly rails against, and he limits his exercise to walking. His wife, in contrast, is ferociously athletic. Five times a week, though less in winter, she plays singles tennis. Every morning she rises at 5 a.m. and makes the family breakfast.
