Sauces: Classical and Contemporary Sauce Making (2nd Edition)39 reviews
James Peterson

Wiley, 1998

An indispensible culinary reference and learning experience
It's a book, yes, and it does have recipes. But it's not a cookbook. It's an incredible tome of reference material; there's a huge section on various ingredients and cooking implements, right down to what kind of metal is best on which pans for what purpose and the optimum construction of spatulae. It contains a brief rundown of the evolution of classical French cooking, from which a great ...

Great gift for dad
I purchased this for both my father and my stepfather. Both have tried recipes from it already and were excited to be doing something new. My stepfather had been looking for the book on his own, I didn't know he was doing so, but he said that it was recommended by a friend who is an excellent griller! Lots of great recipes and techniques.

Paul Kirk

Harvard Common Press, 1997

Learn from a master
You can buy lots of books on how to cook barbeque, but very few from accomplished masters such as Paul Kirk. Only two things surpass his ego in this book: His willingness to share some great recipes and insights, and his recipes themselves. Pretty much every sauce, marinade, and relish I tried from this book turned out great. It's no surprise to me that Paul Kirk is so accomplished with ...
