Kristen Kish Cooking: Recipes and Techniques cookbook is a
gorgeous cookbook. It has beautiful photography throughout. It begins with a quite long introduction
giving you some insight of her life. Then it proceeds to Techniques and terms.
She does a very good job describing various techniques including making
meringue, poaching, smoking, searing etc.
Recipes include Snacks, Beginnings, From the Sea, Pasta and
Grains, Meat, and Sweets. I have to
admit I’m not extremely familiar with these recipes but the ingredients are
easy to find and the recipes are very easy to follow. I haven’t personally fixed anything yet and I’m
not real sure this will be a cookbook that I will keep in my collections.
Although it is very beautiful it probably isn’t the cuisine my family would
eat. There is a recipe for octopus and my family would probably kill over if I
served this to them.
I believe this cookbook would be great for the true foodies
out there which my family and I are not we prefer simple southern food. That being said I can’t say anything negative
about this cookbook. It is very nice quality, full of great information and
recipes, and overall beautifully done.
I received this book from bloggingforbooks.com in exchange
for an honest review. You can get your copy here.
