Larousse Gastronomique Cooking
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.
This book is great for the beginner or novice. It is loaded with every dish you could ever imagine. There are over 8,500 recipes and 1000 illustrations. It also tells how to cure, treat and preserve meat. You will find info on the history of food and the diet and nutrition of food.
The book has been translated into English. You will find this book in every top-notch restaurant. Serious chef's use it as a reference tool but, that does not mean the home cook will not benefit from it, too.
When looking for this book, try to find the 1961 version. It is the best.
Happy cooking!
