Julia’s Kitchen Wisdom: Essential Techniques and Recipes from a Lifetime of Cooking (Paperback)

Julia’s Kitchen Wisdom: Essential Techniques and Recipes from a Lifetime of Cooking (Paperback)

Amazon.com Review

What would you give to see the notes Julia Child keeps in her handwritten loose-leaf kitchen reference guide? Your wish is granted! This clever little volume was inspired by Child’s notebook, compiled from her own “trials, remedies, and errors.” Organized by large category and technique, it’s a very handy reference guide for anyone reasonably comfortable in the kitchen. Each section contains a master recipe followed by variations. The emphasis is on techni (more…)

Julia and Jacques Cooking at Home (Hardcover)

Julia and Jacques Cooking at Home (Hardcover)

Amazon.com Review

Julia and Jacques Cooking at Home is the companion volume to Julia Child and Jacques Pepin’s PBS series of the same name. The setup works like this: the two opinionated TV cooks confront different ingredients on each show, then make their way through to the finished dishes that make up a meal. The recipes reveal themselves along the way. What’s most important here–and it shows up in the cookbook–is that there is no one way to cook. The point of the boo (more…)
