Book Reviews of Professional Cooking, 6th Edition

Book Review: Great Book
Summary: 5 Stars

I've owned this book for almost a year and have been very pleased with it. The instructions are easy to follow and I've been able to increase my skills by reading then doing. I really like how, for most techniques, there's a "why" you do something one way vs. another. His Professional Baking book is also superb. Don't be turned off by what you may think is too hard or complicated. Sure, you might fail the first time but so do most people riding a bike. With a little bit of practice you can make great sausage, yummy cookies (blue ribbon at the county fair!), incredible soups and main dishes, and awsome desserts. Take a chance!
