Publishers Text

Every kitchen worldwide is stocked with these essentials, but what real knowledge do most cooks have of using them? Here, for the first time, cooks are offered accessible how-to manuals filled with fundamental information on these basic tools -- tools found in every kitchen, and whose proper use is a critical element in culinary success. Written by an expert on culinary equipment and techniques, "All About Knives" and "All About Pots and Pans" are illustrated with easy-to-follow line drawings and step-by-step sequences. Among the many helpful tips, facts, and techniques are safe handling methods for different foods; how to dice, slice and julienne vegetables; how to quarter, bone, and butterfly fowl; how to choose the best pan for sauteing, roasting, or baking; and how to care for different cookware materials, from enamel to copper. The books' very affordable price and handy, practical size makes them the perfect gift set for both the novice and the experienced cook.
