Mastering the Art of French Cooking Volume One by Julia
Child, Louisette Bertholle & Simone Beck
— “Anyone can cook in the French manner anywhere,” wrote
Mesdames Beck, Bertholle, and Child, “with the right
instruction.” And here is the book that, for forty years,
has been teaching Americans how.
Mastering the Art of French Cooking is for both
seasoned cooks and beginners who love good food and long to
reproduce at home the savory delights of the classic
cuisine, from the historic Gallic masterpieces to the
seemingly artless perfection of a dish of spring-green peas.
This beautiful book, with more than one hundred instructive
illustrations, is revolutionary in its approach because:
• It leads the cook
infallibly from the buying and handling of raw
ingredients, through each essential step of a recipe, to
the final creation of a delicate confection.
• It breaks down the
classic cuisine into a logical sequence of themes and
variations rather than presenting an endless and diffuse
catalogue of recipes; the focus is on key recipes that
form the backbone of French cookery and lend themselves
to an infinite number of elaborations—bound to increase
anyone’s culinary repertoire.
• It adapts classical
techniques, wherever possible, to modern American
conveniences.
• It shows Americans
how to buy products, from any supermarket in the U.S.A.,
that reproduce the exact taste and texture of the French
ingredients: equivalent meat cuts, for example; the
right beans for a cassoulet; the appropriate fish and
shellfish for a bouillabaisse.
• It offers
suggestions for just the right accompaniment to each
dish, including proper wines.
Since there has never been a
book as instructive and as workable as Mastering the Art
of French Cooking, the techniques learned here can be
applied to recipes in all other French cookbooks, making
them infinitely more usable. In compiling the secrets of
famous cordons bleus, the authors have produced a
magnificent volume that is sure to find the place of honor
in every kitchen in America.

Julia's Kitchen Wisdom : Essential Techniques and Recipes
from a Lifetime of Cooking by Julia Child
— What would you give to see the notes Julia Child keeps in
her handwritten loose-leaf kitchen reference guide? Your
wish is granted! This clever little volume was inspired by
Child's notebook, compiled from her own "trials, remedies,
and errors." Organized by large category and technique, it's
a very handy reference guide for anyone reasonably
comfortable in the kitchen. Each section contains a master
recipe followed by variations. The emphasis is on technique,
so if you occasionally find yourself trying to remember at
what temperature to best roast a duck, the best way to cook
green beans and keep them green, or how to save your
hollandaise, then this is the book for you. And what good is
a reference guide without an index? As always, Child comes
to our rescue with a fantastic, comprehensive index, 19
pages long for 107 pages of text, so we can find the answers
to life's burning questions in a flash.

Eating for Life: Your Guide to Great Health, Fat Loss and
Increased Energy! by Bill Phillips —
Did you truly enjoy the food you ate today? Do you really
like the way you look and feel? Are you consistently
enjoying great health and high energy? Bill Phillips, author
of the #1 New York Times bestseller Body-for-LIFE, believes
your answer to all of the above questions should be, "Yes!"
He feels that food should be a source of pure pleasure. A
source of positive, abundant energy! A "sure thing" in a
world of much uncertainty. Phillips, who's widely regarded
as today's most successful fitness author, has firm beliefs
which go against the grain of today's popular weight-loss
methods. "Diets, all of them, are potentially dangerous,
most always dumb and ultimately a dead-end street!" he
insists. "Eventually, anyone and everyone who's at all
concerned with their health must learn how to feed their
body, not how to starve it." Instead, Phillips encourages a
safe and sound solution which includes eating balanced,
nutrient-rich meals, frequently throughout the day. "This is
what works in the long run," he explains. Rich with common
sense and science, Eating for Life has rhyme and reason. It
is specific. There are very clear dos and don'ts which help
people enjoy food and improve their overall fitness. Bill's
approach, which he calls the "Eating for Lifestyle," has
already helped thousands of people break free from the
dieting dilemma and discover that, contrary to pop-culture
belief, food is friend, not foe. Used intelligently, it
nourishes the body and mind, satisfies the appetite, calms
cravings, renews health and lifts energy.
