  • A New Standard

    The author worked at Cooks Illustrated under a watchful administration and was never rewarded for his effort and insight (much like a predecessor in Mark Bittman). He left that institution as did a number of others who found the administration there uncomfortable. I work from a base of 51 books assembled over 25 years to guide my culinary works. This book is eye opening and made me rethink many decades of culinary assumptions and methodology from beef to eggs to stock. This guy is a revelation who should make you wake up and take notice of contemporary science and new insight into all things culinary. Bravo.

  • Great Cooking Book

    If you like Cooks Illistrated style of magazine this is an awesome book. Not only a recipe but how to and why the recipe works. A more sicientific approach to cooking but not just lots of formulas tables and writing. Lots of color pictures with a modern writing point of view with recipes that have been tested . 900 plus pages but I couldn't put it down . Great reference book also to have laying around.

  • Great Cookbook with wonderful suggestions on a new way to do things you have been doing for years.

    Wow! This cookbook is awesome. I have been boiling eggs for many years, but never was able to get perfectly peeled boiled eggs until I received this book. Use it all the time and even gave one to my grandson for Christmas.

  • Cookbook Bible

    The "How to" cookbook. Period. New to cooking? Read this book. Experienced chef? We all can learn more. "I always wanted to know that!" Addictive.

  • Fantastic book on how to cook

    This is more that a recipe book. This gets beyond technique and into the “why” the technique works or doesn’t work. I am a better cook after 50 years of cooking. This will now be my go-to wedding gift.

  • Great book

    Just what every person who loves food needs in their personal library. Just like Julia Child cookbooks and the Joy of Cooking.

  • Cooking 101

    Scientific explanation of why some methods work and myth-buster for some popular methods. Provide nice tricks to various cooking situations. Should be everyone's first cook book.
