Reviews
There’s something to be said for watching a cooking demonstration versus reading a recipe in a book. For one thing, we live in the television/computer world and most of us are used to learning from watching, not from reading. Plus, when demonstrating a dish, a chef will often share tips that would probably never make it into a cookbook…Three volumes of Jacques Pépin Fast Food My Way demonstrates how to create deliciously elegant meals in minutes. – American Fitness Magazine
