Dalla quarta di copertina

"The essential text for any serious cook, this new edition of On Cooking confirms the classic status of the original. At once a culinary encyclopedia, a cooking manual, a professional handbook, a catalogue of ingredients and techniques, a kaleidoscope of glorious food photography, and a comprehensive collection of recipes, On Cooking continues to be the indispensable pillar at the center of anyone's culinary library."
― Andrew Schloss, CCP, President of the International Association of Culinary Professionals and author of numerous cookbooks

"On Cooking is not only a great textbook, it is one of my standard reference tools. It sits on my desk where I can always reach for it to look something up."
― Russ Parsons, Food Editor, Los Angeles Times

"For both the serious home cook and budding professional, this comprehensive work offers a well-rounded culinary education in a single user-friendly volume. Basic ingredients, techniques, procedures, terminologies and recipes are communicated by clear prose and excellent photographs. Seldom have the science and art of food been so well integrated in a manual of instruction that makes learning a joy."
― Betty Fussell, food historian and author of My Kitchen Wars and The Story of Corn

"On Cooking has everything a culinary student or young chef needs―from clear photos to basic butchery, to principles of the bake shop, even marvelous recipes and insights from famous, super-successful chefs. ....It makes you a master of the nitty-gritty problems....Best of all, On Cooking provides all of this priceless information in one single book. I predict that it won't take long for your copy to get that battered, grease-stained, much-used look."
