Cooking at the C.I.A: Culinary Institute of America (PBS Cooking)

Rating:
Summary: Very good book for culinary students
Review: I used this book as a reference for my hot foods classes in culinary school and found it to be quite helpful. It was very descriptive and helped me to get an edge in the kitchen. For my baking classes I used the following which were just great:
Study Guide for Baking: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanations by Melissa Heilman
Study Guide for Advanced Baking: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanations by Melissa Heilman
These study guide proved to have similar type questions that I encountered on my culinary exams in baking and advanced baking class. Various chefs had recommended me these 3 books, I guess they were right since I got excellent marks on my tests.
