This is not a cookbook in the usual sense. It is not a recipe book. Rather, it is a book about the practice of cooking - a cookery book - meant to be a supplement to recipe books. It is a cooking primer, a source to turn to when you need answers to the many questions about ingredients and cooking methods that are asked every day by every inexperienced cook. It contains: Definitions of Cooking Terms, Information About Ingredients, Description of Cooking Methods and Techniques, Helpful Hints, Suggestions and Cautions. With Additional Sections On: Advice for New Cooks, Recommendations About Cookbooks, Principles of Food Safety, Origins of Food Names, Measurement and Conversion Equivalents.
