"Very formative to my style of cooking, this book encourages you to know your ingredients and be confident in your improvisations. It bestows freedom on the cautions cook and opens up a whole new world of cooking from what's in your pantry."
"This isn't a recipe book as much as it is a book on how to prepare food, including choosing the freshest ingredients. From this general information, you can make prepare dishes in any quantity you wish. Definitely ann interesting read for those who like to "read" cookbooks."
"I cherish my original edition of this book highly, yet it lives in the kitchen and is pretty well spattered from numberless consultations near food.
The book does not provide recipes - it simply makes suggestions about combinations you might try, and encourages you to go experiment. There is wisdom about caring for implements, and for the various vegetables and legumes. Full of the spirit of discovery and don't-know of a young Ed Espe Brown, who learned to cook by washing, cutting, chopping, cleaning, and eating."
