Review On Cooking: Techniques From Expert Chefs, Trade Version (3rd Edition) / Prentice Hall:A virtual encyclopedia of culinary arts, On Cooking spotlights more than 600 delectable recipes-from soups to meats to desserts-presented by 30 of the world's greatest chefs. Richly illustrated with more than 1,250 full-color photographs, the book also features special "heart healthy" recipes, international cooking, and more. On Cooking is a celebration of the culinary arts that will benefit anyone considering cooking as a profession, as well as serious amateur cooks who want to improve their skills-particularly in butchering and charcuterie. Wolfgang Puck, Mark Miller, and Alfred Portale are just 3 of the 30 chefs who share with us their combined wisdom and know-how. This mighty encyclopedia covers a wealth of subjects, including nutrition, food safety, and standardizing a recipe. The book does assume a fair amount of culinary knowledge and expertise when it comes to proper textures, cooking times, and accurately judging "doneness. " There are recipes for more than 700 dishes, including classics such as Turnedos Rossini and Crabcakes Benedict-as well as the basics for making great sauces, stocks, soups, pastry, and so forth. New-style cooking also features prominently, with a delicious recipe for Duck Prosciutto with Fresh Mango being a fine example. On Cooking: Techniques from Expert Chefs is quite an achievement.

Review Favorite Dishes: A Columbian Autograph Souvenir Cookery Book (The Food Series) / University of Illinois Press:"Favorite Dishes" is a celebrity cookbook of autographed recipes, accented by portraits of the distinguished contributors, that was compiled on the occasion of the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago. It is a handsome sourcebook on nineteenth-century cookery as well as a testament to the desire of well-educated, well-placed women to use their position for social good. It is also a prime example of the genre of charitable cookbooks that began after the Civil War and extends to today's Junior League community cookbooks. The world's fair in Chicago was the first event of its kind that offered women a conspicuous and responsible role. A Woman's Building was designed by a woman architect, decorated with the statues and paintings of prominent women artists, and overseen by a Board of Lady Managers, comprised of 115 wives and daughters of prominent political and business leaders from every state and territory. Carrie Shuman approached the president of this unprecedented body, Bertha Honor Palmer, with the idea of producing a charitable cookbook, endorsed and autographed by the Lady Managers, of their prize recipes. The books would be offered to women of limited means-women who dreamed " longingly and hopelessly of the Exposition" - who could sell them to raise money to cover the expense of a visit to the fair. This reissue of "Favorite Dishes" is set off by a pair of new introductions. Reid Badger discusses the phenomenon of world's fairs and the particular success and significance of the 1893 Exposition in Chicago. Bruce Kraig examines the culinary significance of the book and sets it in the context of the era's food standardization, changing cooking technology, recipe book conventions, and social practices.
