Plus Brown shares a plethora of fascinating food facts, history, lore, and science., Eight years ago, Alton Brown set out to create a cooking show for a new generation. The result was "Good Eats," one of Food Network's most popular programs.

    Item as described - though listed as used, but it really appeared like a new item that I could find at a retail bookstore. Item packed without issue upon arriving, it was mailed quickly and it arrived much sooner than expected. The transaction went well. I'm happy with the item, and I would definitely purchase from this seller again.

    I would say it was as described, but it was actually even better than expected, really lovely item and came very well-packed for shipping. Lots of care taken in the handling for shipping. Price for both item and shipping cost were more than fair. I have a recipe book that came out two years after this one by the same publisher. My grandmother used it as a regular go-to cookbook her whole life & then it came to me & I still use it too. Very excited to now have this companion volume to go with it!

  • good eats makes good reading

    The book makes it clear why Alton Brown's show "good eats" is so popular. In one easy to read and understand book Alton Brown explains to the reader the why of cooking, what really happens in grilling, baking etc. and why one method is better than another and for what foods. He busts a few food myths like searing to seal moisture (it doesn't). There are also sections on what equipment to use and where to get a good deal. There are of course recipes but these are to illustrate the cooking method. If you want a book of recipes look elsewhere. If you want to understand the basic principles of cooking and even the scientific reasons behind those principles, this is the book for you. I really have to admit that I was amazed how well and how clearly the science behind cooking was explained in so ...
