Like its predecessors, the Third Edition offers a systematic guide to every aspect of professional cooking, including equipment, stocks and sauces, soups, meats, poultry, fish, vegetables, salads, sandwiches, desserts, and food presentation. Over 900 recipes are included.
The elegant design of this edition and the clarity of the writing make following the food preparation procedures a pleasure. For ease of understanding, photographs of procedures are taken, step–by–step, from the point of view of the person performing them.
Written with perfect consistency in one expert voice, this is a book that will never confuse, a book that facilitates learning and helps build real cooking expertise. It emphasizes learning the underlying principles of cooking not the rote memorization of recipes or procedures. Professional Cooking clearly explains, for example, what happens to different food products when you apply heat to them, and the results of combining, increasing, or substituting recipe ingredients. Recipes both illustrate and reinforce the principles in the text.
As hundreds of thousands of professional and amateur cooks have learned, Professional Cooking teaches the combination of technical skill and creative understanding that is the essence of the art of cooking.
