About this title

Synopsis

At last, a guide for those cooks who are oppressed by recipes which are often as peremptory and seemingly illogical as barracks room orders. The Cookbook Decoder lets us in on the REASONING behind recipes, what ingredients are vital to success, why some utensils do a better job than others, and which timing sequences are mandatory. And, it goes ahead to provide the reader with a framework for thinking about and modifying recipes with self-assurance. Peppered with over 120 recipes and more than 20 kitchen experiments, the Decoder is an invaluable tool for understanding, appreciating, and working creatively with man's oldest chemical experiment: cooking.

About the Author

After a long adolescence he made his way to Cornell University with the mistaken idea that life would be warmer in upstate New York. He next tried the University of Wisconsin where he acquired 3 mackinaws and a Ph. D. The reputed torrid climate of Montreal beckoned he became a Chemistry Professor at McGill University. He has always been an actor; professionally, most of his life.
