Genius! I religiously watch good eats. This book has some great recipes in it. the only issue is you have to read it front ot back to get down all his cooking techniques.
One of my "Go To" cookbooks I have been to pastry school and have at least a hundred cookbooks dedicated strictly to baking but this is one of the books that I pull off the shelf first. The recipes are good basic recipes with solid explanations regarding the methods being used. I absolutely love the chocolate cake recipe in here and the chocolate mousse. The two together make a great special occasion cake. The recipes in here use normal ingredients you have around the house and do not require a lot of fancy equipment.
Awesome...Fascinating...need I say more? If you not only enjoy cooking, but find the science of cooking fascinating, this book is for you. Alton writes just like he talks, which makes this book not only interesting, but fun and enjoyable. I highly recommend it!
Love this! I have watched the Alton Brown show for a while and love the science take on cooking. So to have this book in the kitchen is great. I also purchased Brown's "Cooking (2.0)".
Oh Bother... Huge fan of Alton Brown, but it sounds like a lot of errors in this book (I have only found the "tk" error in his brownie recipie). All the errors are really to bad because I think if it did not have all of the errors Alton may have gotten another nod from the James Beard Foundation. But with that said I would still recommend it to learn the science of baking.
Genius!
Oh Bother...
