What is the perfect way to roast a chicken? Julia Child has given us extensive answers to these and other questions in the masterful volumes she has published over the last forty years. But which book do you turn to for which solutions? Moreover, her cooking has been refined over the years and sometimes she has developed new approaches to old problems, using time-saving equipment and more readily available products. So where do you locate her latest findings. Now in this little volume you can find the answers you are seeking. Information is arranged according to type of food and technique, with ample cross-referencing. You've brought home a nice rib steak and you want to know how to cook it. Immediately you will be guided to the quick sautÈ as the best and fastest way. And once you've mastered that recipe, you can apply the same techniques to chops, chicken, or fish, following Julia's careful guidelines. For each technique she offers a brief master recipe, succinctly spelling out all the necessary details. The variations that follow demonstrate how to put theory into practice-and soon you'll be coming up with your own versions of a dish. Equally indispensable information is given about soups, vegetables, eggs, and the secrets to baking good, crusty French bread, flaky tarts, and rich, moist cakes. It's all here waiting for you in this delicious, comforting, essential compendium of Julia's kitchen wisdom-a book you can't do without. Bookseller Inventory # 14997
