Notes about this book

  • lbr4 on December 08, 2022

    As a home cook who is comfortable with executing many types of dishes and cuisines, I am always looking to learn more. I just recently purchased this book and the "advanced" version to continue on that path and find so far, that there are a great variety of recipes, tips and techniques to learn from. I am looking forward to cooking through these recipes and techniques over the coming year. That being said, the one major flaw in these books for me is that the recipes or "courses" seldom give ideas on what to serve the recipe with. Can I come up with ideas? Of course. But I wish in the "courses" sections they would have shared ideas of what other recipes in the book would go great with it, from the sides to the dessert even. It would have been nice in some cases to have ideas to execute a full meal if needed. A great example of that Is in the "The Essential New York Times Cookbook". Other than than, I know I will learn from this book.

      If you love a Tom Kha Gai - this soup is for you. Excellent! The key to execute this recipe is to for sure have all the the ingredients prepped and ready to go before starting.

Go to cooking school in your own kitchen with over 80 themed courses to learn more than 200 skills and cook 400 recipes

This all-new exploration of the fundamentals of cooking is perfect for anyone (from brand-new to experienced cooks) who wants to learn not just the “hows” but also the “whys” of cooking. Why does pizza bake better on a stone? Why do mushrooms benefit from water when sautéing? Why should you salt food at multiple stages during the cooking process?

More than 80 focused courses let you dive into your favorite topics, whether it's Pizza, Fried Rice, Fish on the Grill, or Birthday Cake, and take a mini-bootcamp on the subject, each introduced by an ATK test cook. The courses are presented in easily digestible sections so you don't have to read a lot before you pick up your knife and start cooking. Cooking principles, technique, key takeaways, food science, and more are woven into each course so you learn as you cook. Jump into a class on Fresh Italian Pasta to learn how to:

• make fresh pasta from scratch without a machine
• cut fettucine and make Fettucine Alfredo
• make a classic marinara sauce and basil pesto

Infographic pages take you farther behind recipes and ingredients: See how olive oil is really produced, or how temperature affects the state of butter (and why firm, soft, and melted butter behave differently in cooking). Every chapter progresses from the basics of the best way to poach a perfect egg and make chicken broth to upping your game with huevos rancheros and mastering the elusive roast chicken. If you want to feel accomplished and really know how to cook, come learn with America's Test Kitchen.
