Summary: This book will help you stir up something special!
Review: Written with humor and insight by Bryan Miller, a former New York Times restaurant critic, and Marie Rama, a food and media consultant, "Cooking For Dummies" (r) delightfully instructs and explains the basics of cooking.Helpful icons and numerous sidebars highlight the countless tips, warnings, time-savers, "what if" scenarios, and money-savers that are a result of Miller and Rama's years of experience with the culinary arts. The authors also expertly explain all the "technical stuff" that everyone from the novice to the seasoned chef should know. Over 150 tried-and-true recipes are interspersed with informative text, illuminating diagrams, and light-hearted humor. With recipes for basic but superb dishes that even experienced cooks would be proud to serve, "Cooking For Dummies" contains a cornucopia of information for every chef. Most importantly, Miller and Rama explain away the anxieties in order to make cooking fun and immensely rewarding for anyone ready to put on an apron!
