Book Reviews of the Jacques Pépin's Complete Techniques
Customer Review: Complete Techniques, a complete misnomer
Summary: 1 Stars
I'm a pretty good cook and went to culinary school. I'm also eager to learn everything I can. I'm hardly a snob when it comes to food and preparation. I also read a lot of cooking non-fiction.
I love Jacques Pepin. I think he's the name man and am currently reading his biography. So, it pains me to give this review, but I gotta be honest, this book sucks. The descriptions are way too brief and half the techniques in here are completely useless with today's cooking. Tremendously disappointing.
Want a real complete technique book? Check out La Varenne Pratique by Anne Willan or The Professional Chef from the CIA.
Sorry Jacques.
