"Julia Child introduces sixteen of America's great professional cooks and the dishes that they make in their own kitchens, and she edits their recipes for the home cook." - from the front jacket ".Julia Child writes in her Introduction that she's never known a serious cook or chef who didn't say: "Every day I learn something new!" "That point of view," she says, "turns home cooking and the pleasures of the table into a wonderful adventure." So, bon appetit, and enjoy the adventures that this wonderful book provides." - excerpt from the rear jacket flap "The recipes themselves are lessons in contemporary ingredients and combinations, making us aware of what is being cooked today and how food is presented by leading chefs around the country. In spite of their being given to us by professionals, the recipes here are all written expressly for the average serious home cook.The joyful passion that the chefs showed for their chosen profession was what especially impressed me during our television tapings. Every one of our cooks adores and is utterly dedicated to the art, and takes tremendous pride both in its execution and in its teaching. They have a good time, and it shows. Before we began, we said to each of them, 'We don't want show-off cooking like how to cut up a chicken in eleven seconds. We want real teaching. Consider your audience to be your apprentices, and really show us how you do things." - From Julia Child's Introduction. Seller Inventory # 002708
