"It is like a little bible.... It is a beautifully made book, as well as very useful... Amazing." -Martha Stewart "A stylish little cookbook . . . a seductive object, beautifully proportioned and designed, but also remarkably comprehensive. After covering basic kitchen skills, The Basics zips through an overview of savory cooking, then switches to baking and desserts. But while most general cookbooks would stop there, The Basics plunges onward into contemporary cuisine." -Jonathan Hayes, The New York Times Magazine, "It is like a little bible....

Synopsis
Over 150 concise descriptions of the skills and techniques no cook should be without, from how to make fundamental sauces to how to master core cutting and preparation techniques, plus a collection of basic but astonishing recipes to try it all out., "A stylish little cookbook . . . a seductive object, beautifully proportioned and designed, but also remarkably comprehensive. After covering basic kitchen skills, The Basics zips through an overview of savory cooking, then switches to baking and desserts. But while most general cookbooks would stop there, The Basics plunges onward into contemporary cuisine."-Jonathan Hayes, The New York Times Magazine "This book is written in a clear style and filled with wise advice."-Le Figaro Magazine "Each page contains one photo, one recipe, and one clever tip. What more could one want?"-Beau & Bon The book the United Kingdom's Bulletin called "a cooking bible" comes to America: It's the award-winning and best-selling title with the 150 most important techniques used in European kitchens. Unlike US and Canadian cookbooks, The Basics focuses on kitchen skills rather than recipes. Learn standard European methods to cut and prepare vegetables and meats, make cream sauces, and perfect b'arnaise and consomm?'. And as The New York Times Magazine noted, there is also an impressive collection of newly minted continental techniques-including how to "cook fennel sous vide (slow-simmered in a vacuum-sealed pouch) and recipes for of-the-moment constructions like foie-gras foam and savory jellies." Readers are encouraged to experiment, and recipes utilizing the book's techniques are provided for just such experimentation. Unlike anycookbook on the market, The Basics is sure to make waves in North America. Filip Verheyden studied cooking at PIVA in Antwerp and has been a freelance food writer since 1998, contributing to many magazines and newspapers. Tony Le Duc has been a foodphotographer since 1984, producing images for some twenty books, including The House of Books.'?, The book the United Kingdom's "Bulletin" called "a cooking bible" comes to America: It's the award-winning and best-selling title with the 150 most important techniques and kitchen skills used in European kitchens. Also includes beautiful photos throughout.

    Received well package, thank you for that. Item works perfectly with no faults, which I knew from the description and pictures as it was in ring test with no load, hence the "bad" pneumonic displayed. Excellent seller, would definitely purchase from again!
