Mastering
the Art of French Cooking, Volume One
by Julia Child, et al
“Anyone can cook in the French manner anywhere,” wrote Mesdames Beck,
Bertholle, and Child, “with the right instruction.” And here is the book
that, for forty years, has been teaching Americans how.
Mastering the Art of French Cooking is for both seasoned cooks and beginners
who love good food and long to reproduce at home the savory delights of
the classic cuisine, from the historic Gallic masterpieces to the seemingly
artless perfection of a dish of spring-green peas.... The Publisher

Maison Du Chocolat : Transcendent Desserts by the Legendary Chocolatier
by Robert Linxe, et al
Fans of high-end chocolate delights have long flocked to Robert Linxe's
La Maison du Chocolat, a Paris-based confection-boutique "chain." La Maison
du Chocolat, blissfully photo-illustrated in color, offers readers an introduction
to Linxe's art and craft, plus 65 recipes for a wide range of treats, from
candies and cakes to creams, mousses, soufflés, and more. Though not difficult
in themselves, the recipes are sometimes flawed (baking sheets, for example,
are called for when baking pans are required, and dimensions for these
are frequently omitted). Experienced bakers can fill in the blanks, but
the rest of us will probably do best to enjoy the book as a record of one
man's passion and its mouthwatering realization. Beginning with a paean
to Linxe's artisanal skill--he's been called the sorcerer of ganache--the
book then provides an investigation of chocolate bean types, each of which
has its own role in the chocolate-making process, plus a glimpse at Linxe's
exacting candy-making process. The recipes come next, and include such
temptations as Chocolate-Almond Cake with Lemon Cream, Extra-Rich Brownies,
Chocolate Raspberry Mousse, and Bittersweet Chocolate-Nut Candy. A chapter
on frozen desserts and beverages, which includes a definitive hot chocolate
recipe, follows, as does a section on basic preparations and techniques,
like tempering. Interspersed throughout are introductions to the extraordinary
(and wonderfully named) Linxe confections, such as the chocolate-mint Zagora.
These further disable readers already wobbly from the chocolate euphoria
Linxe's candies--and now his book--provide. --Arthur Boehm - Amazon.com
