Book Reviews of The Professional Chef's Knife Kit

Book Review: good first start
Summary: 4 Stars

book does a good job of inititating the user to knife techniques for a someone not attending formal training. Descriptions define the technique quite well, I would have liked to have included more information about the errors students encounter.

Overall a worthwhile book.

Summary of The Professional Chef's Knife Kit

The complete, authoritative guide to knife use and care

High quality, well-made, well-maintained knives-and the skills to use them properly-are among a chef's most important assets. This book explains how to use and care for these essential tools. Easy-to-follow instructions cover all of the basic knife cuts and techniques-including peeling, paring, trimming, carving, chopping, dicing, and filleting-and offer an excellent foundation for building speed and ensuring kitchen safety. The book also features invaluable information on small tools, such as rotary peelers and zesters, along with meat grinders, food processors, and other larger equipment.

Features 150 photographs that clearly illustrate knife skills
