Good textbook. August 12, 2008
Great professional cookbook. Although this book is not for the home cook, the recipes can be modified for smaller portions just watch the seasoning. One thing to remember is that the recipes are fully tested but they are NOT standarized because they were written for instruction. What this means is that most of the recipes are not the classic versions but modified versions designed in order to instruct the student. My only complain, and I always have a complain, is the quality of paper which affects the picture quality as well. The paper seem too thin vs. in the previous versions, the paper was thicker. This happened also with a couple of the CIA books. I think this is a new trend with textbooks. Another thing I want to point out is that the Software that comes with it will not work on Vista. It only seem to work with Windows XP. Like other books that I purchase from Amazon, this book had the corners bended and the front cover was scratched. I think that Amazon should work on the this issue but overall I'm happy with the purchase.
