Review
"Naimer...combines her own Zen philosophy with the creative impulses of Wolfgang Puck to encourage her pupils to think for themselves and create dishes that go beyond slavish repetition of mere lists of commands and fixed inventories of ingredients." - Booklist; "If ever a book could teach creativity, this makes a solid attempt, providing dishes which can be easily 'converted' into variations and including plenty of practical tips on how to achieve balance and success." - Midwest Book Review
Synopsis
The Perfect Cookbook For Anyone Who Wants To Create Their Own Signature Style; With the recent onslaught of TV chefs, people are becoming more and more interested in mastering the art of cuisine. However, rather than showing readers how to cook creatively and develop their own ideas, these celebrity cookbooks only teach readers how to follow recipes. Now, with this exciting new approach to creative cooking, everyone can adapt classic recipes to satisfy and reflect their own unique senses. The Zen Of Cooking provides 130 base recipes and variations for appetisers, pastas, main dishes, vegetarian dishes, soups, salads, sauces, marinades, salad dressings and deserts, all of which are delicious on their own; but they are also the starting points for personal and creative cooking. By learning to separate elective from core ingredients, the home chef can learn to personalise any great recipe.
Also discussing cooking while travelling, adapting various ethnic foods to match personal taste, cooking with limited ingredients, and following the inspiration of what's freshest in the market each day, this book is spiced throughout with Zen wisdom, and will raise the level of all cooks' natural creativity. To paraphrase a Zen precept - recipes open the door, but you must enter by yourself!"About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.
