5 out of 5 stars everything you need to know to be a professional chef   May 27, 2008
D. G. Furman (Colombia)
This is not a cookbook, altho there are recipes. This is a "how to" book, and is very detailed. It goes over the different types of cuisines and elements there in, the different types of meats/seafood, how to properly cut things(explaining what a chiffonade is for example), store things, how to make your basic sauces, roast meats etc. The recipes at the end of every chapter are for 10 servings, and the ingredients are measured by weight generally (and liquids in volume). So this is really more a textbook, and to be used by the chef, and not a family cookbook. It is well written, and beautiful photos illustrate the book.

The Professional Chef is an indispensable kitchen reference for anyone serious about cooking. It covers the basics for many different world cuisines as well as different cooking techniques. It is no wonder that this is one of the CIA's best texts.
