Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A Behemoth Cookbook
Don't get me wrong, I love this cookbook. That is, I love reading it and looking at tips on what NOT to do in a recipe, and if I have something particular in mind that I want to cook, I go to this book for a tried-and-true recipe. The major caveat is that, when I want to cook something quickly on a weeknight, when I'm starved for time - I do not haul out this monster book. It is too big to sit in my small apartment kitchen, so it has to go on my regular bookcase, and it is too big to sit comfortably ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Very pleased
Wonderful cookbook. Bought it as a Christmas gift for my daughter. She was really pleased. She is really into the culinary arts and said this was the "best of the best".



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The New Best Recipes
I loved this cookbook, and I bought 3 more for gifts and they seemed to like it too. I love reading about the "science" behind the decisions made for recipes and techniques, although a lot of it is still opinion and conjecture...it makes for interesting reading. The packaging on the other hand was horrible. 4 heavy books in a box with little packing, left to bounce around, they popped open the box, and UPS left it outside to get snowed on.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - AMAZON REVIEWS IN GENERAL
REVIEWS WITH 5 STAR RATINGS GET FIRST VIEWED. LEAVING ALL THE OTHER REVIEWS LEFT BEHIND. I AM SURE THAT AMAZON WANTS TO SELL ALL THEIR PRODUCTS NO MATTER WHAT THE CUSTOMER THINKS. I AM ONE OF THE BIGGEST CUSTOMERS OF AMAZON. REVIEWS NEED TO BE RE-ADDRESSED FOR THE CONSUMER. IN REGARDS TO THIS COOK BOOK, VERY VERY VERY LONG EXPLANATIONS TO RECIPES THAT WERE INVENTED BY MY GRANDMOTHER'S GENERATION. THE REASON FOR THE FIVE STAR, WAS IT'S COVER ON THE BOOK.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Guaranteed success!
This book is fantastic! You can feel confident that whatever recipe you decide to make will turn out good. I would feel confident cooking for a dinner party using a recipe from this book without evening trying it out in advance.
