This is one of the few books on cooking that I continually return to. Making great sauce is an extremely difficult skill, at least for me, yet James Peterson has presented all of the classical sauces in an easy, and accessible, manner. It is a book that I highly recommend to all aspiring chefs. ( ![]() This seems like a good reference book for sauces. Can anyone suggest others that they think are just as good if not better? How and why of any sauce you might need. This is a classic! Very thorough. All you ever needed to know about the basic sauces. This book is the deepest and most comprehensive book on classical sauce making, history and trivia that you can find in a single volume. As Professorx's review says, it is definitely geared toward the professional chef (which is why I love it: it's so hard to find cookbooks for professionals that aren't actually culinary school textboks). Peterson always seems to be on his game no matter the culinary topic, and SAUCES is no exception. With the history and origins of so many sauces explained, this book is as much a literary adventure as it is an instructional manual. As a bonus for the more experimental cooks out there, Peterson includes several recipes and techniques for recreating truly medieval and ancient sauces, from pigeon dressings to gold-plated chickens to Roman garum. As I said though, it is a book on classical sauce-making; though it contains several dozen pages on Asian and Indian sauces, these final chapters lack the depth and polish of the rest of the book (and make no mention at all of Middle Eastern or African sauces). It's probably a matter of space constraints more than anything; these regions have their own incredibly diverse techniques and histories. Perhaps someday Peterson can devote a volume to them exclusively (unless I beat him to it :) Despite those omissions, SAUCES remains a solid 5 out of 5 stars and one of the most useful books in my kitchen. Highly recommended. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
