Summary: Terrific guide to cooking poultry
Review: I bought this book at full price in a bookstore and think it was worth every penny; ..., this is a great buy. Not only does it contain many recipes for cooking all sorts of poultry in all sorts of ways (roasting, braising, stir-frying, etc.), but the editors experimented with variations on the different techniques. (For example, they roasted a chicken in almost every way imaginable -- high temp, low temp, turning it, not turning it, etc -- describe their results, and recommend the ones they think are best after explaining why.) Their recipe for butterflied roasted chicken is superb -- I highly recommend this cookbook.
