Overview
YOUR #1 RESOURCE IN THE KITCHEN
This one-of-a-kind cookbook teaches you how to cook any dish with confidence, whether you’re following a recipe or improvising a late-night meal. You’ll master core techniques, like how to properly hold a knife, tenderly steam vegetables or perfect the reverse sear, through lessons and practice recipes. You’ll also build your intuition with ingredients thanks to in-depth guides noting the distinctions between produce varieties, pantry staples, cuts of meat and seafood—like which onion is best for sautéing vs. featuring raw, or when kosher salt works better than sea salt. Brimming with colorful diagrams and delicious, modern recipes, this is the only cookbook you’ll need to level up from a beginner cook to a confident, capable chef.
