highly recommended

In an era of outfitted home kitchens and food fascination, it's no wonder home cooks who never learned the fundamentals of the kitchen are intimidated. Twenty years ago, James Peterson could relate, and so he taught himself by cooking his way through professional kitchens and stacks of books, logging the lessons of his kitchen education one by one. Now one of the country's most revered cooking teachers, Peterson provides the confidence-building instructions home cooks need to teach themselves to cook consistently with ease and success. COOKING is the only all-in-one instructional that details the techniques that cooks really need to master, teaches all the basic recipes, and includes hundreds of photos that illuminate and inspire.

Excellent for the adventurous cook!

After purchasing a leg of lamb I needed to know how to cook it properly and I purchased this book based on a another customer's review, in particular on the comments made about the chapter on lamb. I certainly did not want to ruin such a nice cut of meat! Excellent instructions with lots of color photo how-to's. I was a little uncertain about the cooking temps and duration but I trusted Peterson's experience and followed the directions to the letter. The leg of lamb turned out beautifully! A couple of weeks later I roasted a chicken per his instructions and it too was one of the best we've had.

Highly recommend this for the cook who is looking for adventure and challenges. Lots of french techniques that translate easily to everyday meal preparation.

Superb cookbook for a novice who wants to be gourmet

I bought this book in December and just started working with it. Fabulous is all I can say. The recipes are delicious. Abundant photos and instructions guide you on technique and explain the purpose of traditional methods. And the results are wonderful. I've had more fun with this book in the past few weeks than any other cookbook I've ever got.

it's all there

I own Mr. Peterson's sauce book and lean on it a lot. This book is no different, just more inclusive. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in a culinary career. Peterson simplifies some techniques that are often difficult to get through. It is well presented. Good reading and a great learning tool.

Great Cooking

Great book for anybody looking for basic "How to cook" everything from soups to breads, meats, seafood etc. Great pictures and easy to follow recipes which are not too complicated for anyone starting out. The book also provides flexibility and alternative ingredients for anybody wanting to be a bit more adventurous. Overall a great buy, filled with lots of classic recipes.
