After watching her documentary, and reading this book you can’t tell me I don’t work at chez Panisse. If you don’t like her and find her annoying that’s got nothing to do with the books lessons and the basics of cooking. Just your fan behavior to get online and belittle a stranger. When you complain about the illustrations? This isn’t Denny with pictures of Your pancake stacks. If you can’t read just say that.
This book breaks down simply and detailed. I loved reading it. You will improve your cooking.
