Chef
Thomas Keller's first cookbook The French Laundry is a beautiful
book and a must read for any professional cook.While so many
celebrity chefs try to cash in on their fame with a quick restaurant
cookbook, Thomas Keller seems to be trying to do something much
different.His book is more about how cooking "feels" rather
than the actual physical process itself. The recipes are all
very workable for a professional chef but would be difficult
for home cooks to execute. It really doesn't seem to matter
though, because just reading it is enough. The photographs are
wonderful and the "zen like" narratives about food from the
Chef and his support staff are fascinating. His love and respect
for what he does certainly shines through. I think this cookbook
is a definite classic and well worth the price. An absolute
must-read for anyone interested in food. |
