Book Reviews of Jacques P?pin's Complete Techniques

Book Review: this is a "how to" not "what to"
Summary: 5 Stars

the other reviews cover what is in the book quite well
one way to describe the approach of this book is by analogy to building a house:
this book would tell you how to cut, hammer, sheet rock and all that but not how to design or decorate the house..... this doesn't get into flavors, seasoning and menus but it is great on how to prepare that fish or chicken or whatever, the instructions are clear and reliable

Summary of Jacques P?pin's Complete Techniques

The fully illustrated bible of cooking techniques from the world's best-known French cook is now in paperback and in one volume for the first time ever.

From a master chef and the current co-star (with Julia Child) of the hit television series "Cooking at Home," comes everything the home cook needs to perfect his or her kitchen skills-assisted by instructive, step-by-step photography. Learn to de-bone a chicken, poach an egg, whisk a perfect bearnaise, knead a tangy sourdough, or bake an exquisite meringue with the perfection and efficiency of a professional chef. Pepin's toothsome and time-tested recipes offer budding chefs the opportunity to put lessons into practice with extraordinary results. This comprehensive, authoritative presentation of cooking technique and practice is sure to become an indispensable part of every home cook's library.
