"One of her most readable works--I love this because not only are the recipes classically fabulously Julia Child, but it's also one that I can sit down and read for pleasure. Recipes are not only given, but she goes into what makes the recipe actually work, and what will happen if you leave out thus-and-such, or you can stop here and freeze what you've made thus far and serve it another day, etc. Fabulous illustrations (from the cook's point of view), and much more approachable for the general cook than Mastering vols. I and II--i.e. less technical and perhaps more American in its approach. I still love Mastering, but this is truly a classic. And I appreciate the fact that the French bread recipe is scaled down from 30 pages and an all-day endeavor."
"Dear Julia, Making a crepe on the upturned side of my omelette pan was probably the dumbest thing you told me to do in this whole book. That's ok though, because it's like that one time you dropped the chicken (but really didn't) and served it and said that the benefit of cooking alone in the kitchen is that no one knows what happens. That's right, Julia. That is right."
