SynopsisThe American translation of the monumental Guide Culinaire , Auguste Escoffier's indispensable guide to fine cooking originally published in 1903, with nearly 3,000 recipes for sauces, soups, roasts, desserts, and more In The Escoffier Cookbook, Auguste Escoffier, regarded as one of the greatest chefs of all time, presents 2,973 dishes, clearly and simply outlines the methods of preparation for each, and shows how to achieve perfection in delicious flavor. In Part I- The Fundamental Elements of Cooking, he explains the importance of flawless stocks and guides the reader through making them at home. He then moves on to the sauces-Espagnole, Veloute, Bechamel, Tomato, and Hollandaise-that form the foundation of French cooking. Next, Escoffier explores the Aspics and Jellies; the Court Bouillons (or short broths); Elementary Preparations (seasoning, condiments, garnishes, stuffings, and the like); and finally Leading Culinary Operations (braising, poaching, sauteing, roasting, grilling, frying, gratinating, and glazing, among others). In Part II- Recipes and Methods of Procedure, Escoffier offers nearly 3,000 recipes that show the incredible range of classic French cuisine. All the familiar standards are here-Coquilles Saint-Jacques, Crepes Suzette, Cassoulet, Charlotte Russe, Lobster Newburg, and Potatoes Dauphinoise, plus thousands of not-so-familiar standards. Featuring a comprehensive glossary and a collection of sample menus, The Escoffier Cookbook is an invaluable resource for connoisseurs, gourmets, and those who appreciate excellence in food preparation. Bon appetit!

  • Great Book

    A great book. I had one and lost it years ago. Happy to have a copy back

  • Great cookbook!

    Great cookbook! Many cookbooks teach cooking using preprocessed, canned or frozen prepackaged ingredirnts. This is the cookbook to use for scratch made, healthy cooking! This is a book for chefs.

  • God of the Kitchen

    Auguste Escoffier is an absolute legend, in at least the European kitchen and I'm pretty sure worldwide. Yes he's old-school but you couldn't get anything more Classic than this, he's bloody Brilliant, and this is from a British guy who generally dislikes the French!

  • Escoffier cookbook perfect

    This cookbook was a gift for a friend who is a foodie of the first order!! Escoffier, to her, is the Chef of Chefs! She was ecstatic to receive it! The price was absolutely reasonable and the book, although quite old, was in perfect perfect condition. thank you.

    This is a cookbook that should be read by any serious chef or home cook attempting to be creative. The recipes are from an amazing chef from a bygone era. Excellent condition.

  • Inclusive instruction

    This book has a bit of everything. Instructions are not particularly precise which makes for some judgment calls. I guess that's what gourmets do.

  • Comprehensive Haute Cuisine for the Accomplished Cook

    My niece, who is a great cook, received this and the Larousse Gastronomique as a Xmas gift. I have not yet heard what she thinks of them.

  • I read a book about this book and had to have a copy.

    If you're at all serious about French cooking you must have this book. It is their version of The Joy of Cooking.

  • A must have

    This is the granddaddy of all cookbooks and a must have for the classics. Not your Betty Crocker cook book by any means.
