Book Reviews of Alton Brown's Gear for Your Kitchen
Book Review: Awesome Book
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is an absolute must have for any cooking enthusiast, especially those who are still collecting their kitchen gear. Alton Brown goes into great detail as to what kinds of things you will need for a myriad of situations, and why he likes each item. It has everything from what pots to use to what kinds of thermometers you'll need. If you enjoy watching Alton Brown's show, you will definitely like this book as it is infused with his wit and humor and most importantly, his knowledge! I highly recommend this book!Book Review: Fun, simple, and very informative
Summary: 5 Stars
Alton Brown's books are the few cooking oriented books I've actually read cover to cover, then refer to again later. He advocates simplicity, explains clearly why he would choose a particular cooking implement over another (often more costly) one, and does it with fun prose. He appeals to me particularly because if told the "why' of something (which he always does), I am much more likely to remember and use the advice.Book Review: Gear is Great
Summary: 5 Stars
If you're an Alton Brown fan, you'll love this book. It's so...Alton: Packed with info and written in his witty, if not down-right funny style. It's made me proud of some of my kitchen gear selections and has me a bit embarrassed by and getting rid of a lot of clutter. This will be my reference guide for buying any new cooking equipment.Book Review: Alton Brown and Kitchen Gear
Summary: 5 Stars
Alton Brown is well spoken, fun and intelligent. This book is helpful for the person who just can't decide on what stuff to buy for the kitchen. There is just so much out there and he eliminates the nonsense and gives good advice. He is so practical and sensible! Definitely a fun book to have...and you learn a lot too!!!Book Review: The gear suggestions are nice, the reasons behind them are even better.
Summary: 5 Stars
I have always enjoyed how Alton Brown not only goes through the how, but also takes time to explain the why. In this book he goes through quite a bit of his preferred kitchen gear and then explains why he prefers it. A great read for anyone wanting to improve their kitchen and their cooking.
