Synopsis

"This is a truly modern cookbook and a model for all others. It is in perfect synch with the way people enjoy cooking and eating today. From Our Kitchens is simply—and authoritatively—the expression of aggregate good taste." John Marian from the Foreword "Without a doubt, attending The Culinary Institute of America was the most important step I took in building my career. They set the standard in the culinary world and I am pleased to see that they have created a small, portable version of their curriculum. The simplicity, versatility, and most importantly, the ease of duplication of the recipes make From Our Kitchens an absolute pleasure." Ed Brown Executive Chef, Tropica "I am thoroughly delighted that my alma mater, The Culinary Institute of America, has finally unwrapped the secret to their wonderful professional recipes in this book intended for the home cook.

All of the recipes are easy to prepare, provide nutritional analysis, and use standard American measurements. Included are more than 120 recipes that have been adapted from The New Professional Chef™ and The Professional Chef’s Techniques of Healthy Cooking, both of which were nominated for book awards by The James Beard Foundation and the International Association of Culinary Professionals.
