Reviews
This book teaches techniques (including what to do when things go wrong).
It codifies what would otherwise be restricted to the 'oral tradition' of cookery, the little secrets that turn average cooking into top-notch cuisine.
It's perfectly readable and enables you to cook to extremely high standards very quickly.
The recipes themselves are a little dull at times. There is absolutely no shortage of imaginative recipe books, but most are useless since the descriptions of techniques are so patchy or deficient that the recipes invariably fail.
Use this for basic techniques and other books for more imaginative ingredient combinations and you will find yourself able to cook exceptionally well, rapidly and to the adoration of your family and guests, in no time at all.
Please No mirrors.
