 Great recipes and imaginative presentations, 2004-04-02

In comparison to Le Cordon Bleu's Complete Cooking Techniques, there are many more recipes, they are often showy presentations fit for entertaining, and there are many more techniques presented. I agree with others that the small black-and-white pictures are a serious drawback, but in most cases, they are adequate, though not pleasant to work with. In some cases, such as in the instructions for deboning a bird, they are truly not helpful at all. Still, there is so much in the book worth having, that I still give it 5 stars. I bought both books. Le Cordon Bleu's would be better for a novice cook, and PEpin's book would be better for a more accomplished cook wanting to impress their friends.
