Secrets from the Southern Living Test Kitchens Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a good, informative book, but the title is misleading. It is actually an encyclopedia of general cooking knowledge with a few tips thrown in.
It has 5000 short articles, in alphabetical order, primarily on cooking ingredients and dishes, but also cooking techniques, equipment and a few recipes. The articles are from 2 lines to 1 page with an average of 9 per page. It calls them `secrets', but descriptions of basil and banana pepper are not secrets or tips. However, it does have a few sidebars that qualify as secrets and tips.
It spite of the misleading title, it is a good book and I recommend it. It has useful information for beginner to intermediate cooks. Because it is an encyclopedia, it is not a good choice for a book to just sit down and read or to learn cooking from. For that, try `Cooking' or `I'm Just Here for the Food'. It is most useful when you need to know something specific, such as how to knead bread, what is kosher salt or which knife to use.
