Book Reviews of Jacques Pepin's Complete Techniques
Book Review: Not for beginners
Summary: 5 Stars
This is not a book for beginners. This is a book for people who have some chops, but who want a reference manual.
Ignore everybody who complains about the photos: they will never produce meal after meal. They are too busy complaining.
This is a master-work.
