CLEAR, IN-DEPTH INSTRUCTION ON CRITICAL COOKING THEORIES AND TECHNIQUES FOR CULINARY STUDENTS
The Tenth Edition of Professional Cooking reflects the changing nature of our understanding of cooking and related fields such as food safety, nutrition, and dietary practices, as well as the latest thinking about how best to teach this material. Chapters include relevant cultural and historical background for international recipes and cooking practices. What has not changed is the core material that focuses on the essentials--the comprehensive understanding of ingredients and basic cooking techniques that are the foundation of success in the kitchen, and the development of fundamental skills to apply this knowledge.
