Book Reviews of I'm Just Here for the Food: Version 2.0
Book Review: Excellent Detailed Explanations
Summary: 5 Stars
Buy this book if you want to know not only the how of cooking, but especially the why. My mind doesn't really understand how to do something properly until I understand why it should be done that way. This book definitely helped me in cooking because now I really understand why I should do what the cookbooks tell me.
The meat magnets and diagrams are a big plus.
Book Review: i'm just here for the food book
Summary: 5 Stars
i bought this for my 16 year old nephew as a gift. he has read it through 3 times already and says he refers to it often. he has said he likes how it explains cooking terms instead of just telling you to do something...it tells you how to do it as well.
my husband also has this book and referred it for our newly budding nephew's interest in cooking.
Book Review: Educational and Entertaining
Summary: 5 Stars
Just like his show, he makes this book fun to read but teaches you a lot about the science of food and why this does that. I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys cooking and wants to know more about how to cook and not just throw ingrediants together, although this does have plenty of very good recipes and marinades, everything you could want!Book Review: What can I say? It's A.B.
Summary: 5 Stars
My wife and I always like everything that Alton Brown does, so I may be a little biased, but oh well. What we really like about this cookbook is that is more instruction than recipe. It's not just a list of ingredients and a small blurb about which order to do everything. He teaches you how to cook, and why we do the things we do in the kitchen.Book Review: I'm Here for the Food 2.0
Summary: 5 Stars
My husband is a real Alton Brown fan so he was delighted to receive this book as a Valentine's Day present. He loves the meat cut magnets. This is more than a recipe book--it explains WHY you do what you do when you use certain cooking techniques. You can sit down and read this book instead of just using it as a reference.
