This will never be "read" :)Much like the The Silver Spoon (but even heavier) it's an impossibly complete and exhaustive encyclopædia of everything related to cooking, and the level at which you cook doesn't really matter, as even the simplest of concepts (and also the most complex one) is explained。 This will never be "read" :)Much like the The Silver Spoon (but even heavier) it's an impossibly complete and exhaustive encyclopædia of everything related to cooking, and the level at which you cook doesn't really matter, as even the simplest of concepts (and also the most complex one) is explained。 。。。more
Prestoni,
What an amazing encyclopaedia of all things culinary。 Amazing reference book for someone like me who is always keen to find out more about food , will be used often, once I build up the muscles to lift it!I've marked it as read, but it will never be completed as it is so massive and so useful it will be referred to forever。 What an amazing encyclopaedia of all things culinary。 Amazing reference book for someone like me who is always keen to find out more about food , will be used often, once I build up the muscles to lift it!I've marked it as read, but it will never be completed as it is so massive and so useful it will be referred to forever。 。。。more

You can never mark this great book as "read" as you will drop back into it time and time again。 Invaluable resource, a must for any decent and half serious cook。 You can never mark this great book as "read" as you will drop back into it time and time again。 Invaluable resource, a must for any decent and half serious cook。 。。。more

The cookery bible - essential reading, though it lends itself more to dipping in at random than cover-to-cover reading, due to it's huge size。 But that's no bad thing。 The cookery bible - essential reading, though it lends itself more to dipping in at random than cover-to-cover reading, due to it's huge size。 But that's no bad thing。 。。。more
