Book Reviews of The Professional Chef
Book Review: "It is the bible for all culinary chefs"
Summary: 5 Stars
Anyone who has the slightest interest in becoming a chef or wants to improve their techniques should get this book. It covers everything from actual pictures of "how to" prep most dishes to foods of different cultures. The book goes into great details about the rules of the kitchen, the type of tools a chef would need and has a easy "to go" index in the back to refer to specific foods and dishes. All inspiring chefs will enjoy this. Bon Appeitte!Book Review: Good reference
Summary: 4 Stars
I find the book well worth of four stars. It's an exellent reference book. It shows a variaty of techniques and bunch of recipts. It strenghtens your fundamentals in the kitchen.
I own a bunch cookbooks. All of them given to me or come to my hand for free. This is the first cookbook i buy and i dont regret a single dime. It's different form all cookbooks i know because it teaches you technique not a recipe.

Book Review: Excellent
Summary: 5 Stars
This book has just about everything you need to know about types of food and cooking techniques. We have tried a bunch of the recipes and they have been great. Do not buy this book for the recipes though. This is a text book full of information about cooking. I highly recommend this book for the average chef who wants to know how ingredients interact and how to put together outstanding meals. No chef should be without this book.Book Review: A must read
Summary: 5 Stars
The is the ultimate resource for any understanding of real cooking. It's not really a cookbook as much as a complete guide to the science of cooking and food prep. Its been said that one could simply read this book and know more about cooking than many chefs.
I found the price on Amazon to be the best (lowest)I could find anywhere. And I mean anywhere I spend days searching the internet.
