Editor's Notes and Comments:

Product Description:
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.

Amazon.com Review:
Put simply, Cooking is a revelation. No other cookbook so deftly illustrates as broad a scope of classic culinary methods and flavors as you'll find here. As a veteran chef and award-winning cookbook author, James Peterson is uniquely qualified to take food lovers into the modern kitchen and turn them into passionate, precise, intuitive cooks. What's most impressive about a book of this breadth and size (540 pages and 600 recipes, brought to life with 1500 vivid colour photographs) is how accessible and fun it is to read. Every recipe in Cooking sings with a deep knowledge of the ingredients at hand, encouraging cooks not just to follow the recipe but to really understand and relish in the process, and the result is a terrific turn-to reference for any cook seeking inspired instruction. --Anne Bartholomew

User popularity level:  out of 5 stars

Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Just the facts, man
A perfect tool for mastering the essentials of home gourmet cooking. Not for the meatloaf maker, but if you want the perfect homemade eggs benedict--this is your book.



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Geat suff
Certainly one of the best cook books I own...great pictures on how to do certain dishes, its a lenghty book but perfect for a beginner in the cooking department...follow everything carefully and you will surprise yourself and yor guests !! Worth the money....



Rated by buyers 4 out of 5 stars - Great for starters
This book is great for me because it breaks down everything I need to know and never had a clue about when it comes to the kitchen. However, this book is not very helpful when trying to prepare a whole meal. There are no suggestions.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - One of the Best
As someone who loves to cook for my family and who has collected cooking books for many years, this is one of the very best. The book contains the best recipes in any cookbook I own and the illustrations are gorgeous.



Rated by buyers 5 out of 5 stars - Cooking; That about says it all.
