books by Jacques Pepin     books:       The Short-Cut Cook: Make Simple Meals with Surprisingly Little Effort4 reviews Jacques Pepin William Morrow Cookbooks, 2001 Easy Access to Good Food I began cooking from this book about 12 years ago, when it was first released in hardcover. I did not know Jaques Pepin's reputation, I simply wanted recipes one can do quickly. My bottom line on this book is that it succeeded in delivering on the promise of the book's title. I confess I was a little cynical about Pepin's book at first. Pierre Franey, a chef whose very very impressive pedigree I ...             Julia and Jacques Cooking at Home53 reviews Julia Child, Jacques Pepin Knopf, 1999 Perfect! This book is good for beginners as well as intermediate cooks...since it not only provides basic information about cooking, but gives various tips and methods which intermediate level cooks will appreciate. I loved the recipe for american potato salad that julia gave...it came out exactly like it should! As for the pie/tart dough that Jacques gave, it was heaven;y....crumbly and flaky all at the ...             The Apprentice: My Life in the Kitchen43 reviews Jacques Pepin Houghton Mifflin, 2004 Book for non-cooks too My husband loves to cook, and enjoys Jacques Pepin. While I've watched the show to keep my husband company, I'm not much of a cook, but loved this book. It was interesting, entertaining and even got me to read some recipes (not my thing either!). I've since passed it on to a couple of other people that enjoyed it equally. I'm definitely glad we bought this and it has a permanent place in our ...             La Technique: An Illustrated Guide to the Fundamental Techniques of Cooking3 reviews Jacques Pepin Times Books, 1976 Excellent how to manual for the non phobic This is a fabulous how-to for those who are somewhat handy with kitchen tools, though by no means does it require those with experience. The photographs and instructions are clear and explicit, and the book is written in an easy to read and non pretentious style. The recipes for pastry's and cakes are easy to follow, and WORK. I first came across this book when working as a bakers assistant at a ...             Fast Food My Way52 reviews Jacques Pepin Houghton Mifflin, 2004 easy to prepare, tasty food, easy to understand I can highly recommend this book. If you're a beginner at cooking but you want to impress people then this book is really for you! I'm really a novice when it comes to cooking. Whenever I announced that I wanted to cook at home then suddenly everybody said they would be busy and couldn't come home to eat...Even worse, I'm in love with a boy who is really picky at eating because his mum is really ...             Chez Jacques: Traditions and Rituals of a Cook15 reviews Jacques Pepin Stewart, Tabori & Chang, 2007 Chez Jacques Wonderful, uncomplicated recipes beautiful photographs of dishes. Gorgeous photos of his artwork and graphics. Overall a lovely volume that you will find yourself using again and again.             Jacques Pepin's Complete Techniques39 reviews Jacques Pépin Black Dog & Leventhal Publishers, 2001 Not for beginners This is not a book for beginners. This is a book for people who have some chops, but who want a reference manual. Ignore everybody who complains about the photos: they will never produce meal after meal. They are too busy complaining. This is a master-work.             Jacques Pepin's Simple and Healthy Cooking15 reviews Rodale Books, 1999 My Favorite Cookbook Yet! I am very health conscious, so the title of this cookbook grabbed my attention. I did not even know who Mr. Pepin was. I purchased the cookbook on a whim, and have not been sorry, yet. I did not know healthy cooking could taste so good. As one reviewer said, it is all in the preparation and spices. I simply had no idea! I have made several recipes so far, and have not been disappointed. They are ...             Jacques Pépin More Fast Food My Way3 reviews Jacques Pepin Houghton Mifflin, 2008 I think like this Jacques is my absolute favorite american chef. His recipes, with the shadows of France and Italy, entice me the way few other chefs do. This book is beyond good, it's a continual declaration of Jacques' dedication to his art. His production quality is high, like always, and when you sit back and *read* the book, well, it hits the mark. Which mark? How to make great food on a Tuesday night, ...             La Technique1 review Jacques Pepin Random House Value Publishing, 1986 A photographic strip guide to professional cooking. In this unique manual, black and white photographic strips are used to illustrate fundamental cooking procedures, from holding a knife when slicing an onion to preparing a salmon for gravad lax. Very much a book for those who take delight in discovering how the professional works. And those who do will take delight in this book.             Martin Yan's Feast: The Best of Yan Can Cook15 reviews Martin Yan Bay Books (CA), 2003 Excellent recipes for Asian-American food In response to previous reviewers, this is not authentic Chinese food that Yan is making. That said, in reading this book I never got the impression from Yan that it was. Yan includes recipes for many favorites that you would find in Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, and other asian restaurants in the US. These are very good. I'm not buying General Tso's chicken or Sweet and Sour chicken again in ...             Cuisine Economique3 reviews Jacques Pepin William Morrow & Company, 1992 Good food and good sense Jacques Pepin never fails me, but this book makes me feel somehow more closely connected to him than his other work. I suppose the philosophy of this book feels very true to his roots--seasonal cooking using good technique with a respect for the economics of a home cook, the way his mother probably cooked. I think America may finally be ready for this book--as more and more chefs tout seasonal ...             Sweet Simplicity: Jacques Pepin's Fruit Desserts7 reviews Jacques Pepin Bay Books & Tapes, 1999 Perfect Endings Looking for something different to cap off a dinner party, I was loaned this book by a friend. I've tried several recipes - all work just as described. I especially like the many 'easy' recipes that take little time, and the fact that many recipes are light on fat. It's a lovely book.             Jacques Pepin's Kitchen: Encore With Claudine3 reviews Jacques Pepin Kqed Books, 1998 French Cooking made easy! This is the companion book to the PBS series of the same title, also the "sequel" to "Cooking w/ Claudine", the celebrated French chef Jacques Pepin's first cooking show w/ his daughter. Having seen both shows and read both books, I have to say this is a even better one. Recipes are written w/ clear instructions, each one marks w/ time to prepare, nutrition information, and possible ...             Jacques Pepin Celebrates10 reviews Jacques Pepin Knopf, 2001 Wonderful bread recipes After living overseas and in SanFranciso, I moved to the Southwest and was unable to buy the European breads I was used to eating; then I discovered this book. The bread recipes are very simple to prepare, and my family and friends just love them. If you love wonderful bread and don't have alot of time to bake, these are the recipes for you!             Jacques Pepin's Table: The Complete Today's Gourmet11 reviews Jacques Pepin KQED Books, 1997 This might be the only cookbook you need There are so many things to say about this book that have notyet been said by other reviewers that I almost can't believe it. Firstof all, I love food and have been cooking for family and friends nowfor years and Jacques Pepin's books have been the most helpful to meby far. This particular book is wonderful because it not only providescomplete menus for every season and occasion you might ...             Cooking With Claudine (Jacques Pepin's Kitchen)10 reviews Jacques Pepin KQED Books, 1996 If you want to make esquisite fabulous food, buy this book!
