Martha really did a good job describing procedures and tools to make you, the reader, feel confident about trying some of these steps yourself. I've been cooking for years and hadn't seen some these preparations which are quite fascinating.

This book was probably the only thing on my Christmas list. I just graduated from culinary school and I thumbed through this book last December while at Barnes and Noble - I was really so impressed at the step by step details in this book of things that I learned in school - truly, much better than my CIA books. It order to get really good at something you have to learn and practice - this is an incredible book for all levels.

Great book for beginners! How-To's & Recipes provided.1 of 1 people found this review helpful.
This cookbook is wonderful. If you are just learning to cook or even know some basics, you will love it. It is very descriptive with great illustrations and step by step instructions.
As stated in the introduction, "This book has been designed and written as a course of study...which requires the student to master the basics before performing more advanced experiments." There is information on the essential tools and equipment every cook should have as well as learning about the "fundamental ingredients, i.e., onions, garlic, herbs and spices and how they are used to build flavors." There are seven chapters, 1) Stocks and Soups 2) Eggs 3) Meat, Fish & Poultry 4) Vegetables 5) Pasta 6) Dried Beans & Grains and 7) Desserts. Each lesson is followed by a recipe such as stock-making followed by a recipe that calls for the stock.
Martha also encourages you to improvise, such as varying spices in a recipe to suit your own tastes, as you learn to master the skills provided in the book.
I have not yet tried the lessons/recipes since I would like to read through the book first, but I will not be afraid to try since everything is clearly written.
The only thing I would have like to see with each lesson/recipe is a total "prep time" and total "cooking time" as she does on her website. Some of the lesson/recipes are quite time consuming, as I have found out only after reading through them.
I definitely recommend this book!

Martha Does It Again!Review created: 11/07/09
by:
In this huge wonderful book there are answers to questions which one does not even know they have until they have a few goofs in the kitchen. Martha gives clear instructions for the preparation of simple and complicated dishes. Proper tools and methods make for a personal cooking school lesson which one can perform at one's own speed and choice of implement collection. This book and a few simple necessary tools would make a perfect shower gift or wedding p resent for a couple who likes to cook. I have been cooking for decades but love the book because there is always a better way to do things and this book takes out the trial and error. Bought one for myself, my daughter took it so this second one is for my bookshelf!

Martha Stewart Cooking SchoolReview created: 07/07/09
by:
Martha Stewart Cooking School is a simple, easy to understand cooking book for some of the commonly made items. The use of a great amount of pictures further enhance the learning process. While not, perhaps, for the very beginning cook, this book would be excellent for someone with a basic of cooking and the desire to go beyond simple cooking.

I was expecting more recipes, but the book is great for explaining some of the terminology you hear on the food network. It shows you how to do everything from boil an egg to debone chicken. If you are like me and enjoy trying new things in the kitchen -- it is worth checking out.

Check this link out after you read the following.
Just take a couple of minutes and read this. This is very EASY to do! It literally
takes 10 minutes to setup. Simply follow the steps below. I promise you,
this is 100% real. I will answer you on any question! Here is what you
do. Click on the link below, register, pick an account type (referral is
the easiest) and complete just 1 offer (Very important that you complete
the 1 offer otherwise your account will sit in limbo until you do).This
is not like other sites where you need to complete one offer on 2 or 3
different pages!!! And a lot of these offers are FREE trials with
nothing else to buy...No commitments!!!
There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster
online, Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would
regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not use
them to get a free PS3 System or cash (I did the Stamps.com for a 30 day
free trial and it never cost me a penny and I received credit for it the
same day). Look at the offers and choose the one that works for you.
After signing up and completing your one offer, simply refer 8-13 people
(depending on the FREE prize you choose) to do the same under your link
(just post the same thing as I have on eBay, and you'll get your
referrals before the auction even ends.)
Then they will ship your PS3 System or your selected item for free, I
chose the PS3 80gb System. No Joke, 100% REAL!!! The reason these
companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all
the referrals. All you have to do is post it ! They use us as
advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money which goes
toward yours and my free gift. These are legit companies such as
Blockbuster, Netflix, Gamefly etc... You can copy my listing if you
want. You must use your own authentic link though. You will get your own
personal link after your orders placed.
Step 1: Click this link:http://www.YourPS34free.c
Step 2: Sign up and chose an account type (Referral is the easiest and
best).
Step 3: Complete just 1 offer (like Blockbuster or Stamps.com) and refer
up to 13 people to do the same (use eBay OR FORUMS)
Step 4: Receive your PS3 System for FREE!!!!!!!!!! (Even The Shipping Is
Free!!!)
For proof that this is for real, click on the link below. It's the
company that is behind everything.
