Reviews
"Concise. Informative. Indispensible." -- Anthony Bourdain "...Pépin asks the reader to not treat this as a book, treat it as an apprenticeship. I took that to heart, and, indirectly, Jacques Pépin became my mentor through these techniques." -- Tom Colicchio

    • I am a culinary student at Le Cordon Bleu and I absolutely treasure these old school techniques taught by Jacques Pepin, a true classical master chef

      I am a culinary student at Le Cordon Bleu and to tell you the truth, this book really shows you (in black and white) photos of the actual techniques. It is a must have book, whether you are a novice or practicing professional, of the techniques and practices of old school techniques that are essential in the makings of a professional chef. You will really learn a lot of forgotten techniques with this book, whether you are a student, a homemaker, or a long learned professional. A must have book for your reference library editions.

    • Great examples of cooking techniques to try. Love the French way of cooking.

      Right now I am looking through the books and have not tried the receipts as of yet. The books are step-by-step instruction on everything, and I need that. Detailed pictures so that you can see what the dish will look like. A lot of time, thought and experience has gone in to these books and you can tell by looking. Paula
