Reader Reviews
This review is from: La Technique: An Illustrated Guide to the Fundamental Techniques of Cooking (Hardcover) A passionate home cook that has been honing her cooking skills for the last 25 years, concentrating on Italian cooking for the last 10 years, writes this review. My favorite cookbooks are "The Professional Chef" by the Culinary Institute and "Culinary Artistry". Even with more than 500 cookbooks in my collection I would not consider giving up this book. The book is subdivided as follows: The Basics Shellfish and Fish Vegetables Poultry and Meat Carving Desserts and Pastry This book is not a book of recipes, although there are recipes that are used to illustrate techniques. This book covers all the techniques that anyone can imagine. It begins with how to hold a knife, and ends with angel hair made of sugar. Every step in a technique is described and then photographed. This book is almost a good as a cooking class. The only reason that I say almost is that you have to be self-motivated to go through a book. I have taken many cooking classes and when I come home I find that what I learned was contained in this book had I bothered to review the book; the cooking class would have been unnecessary. If you ever run across a copy of this book grab it before someone else does. Time has not affected the usefulness of this book. I highly recommend this book to anyone that is serious about cooking.
