Descriptions du produit

From Publishers Weekly

Organized alphabetically from "Acidity" to "Zucchini" this compendium of cooking techniques, ingredient facts and smart tips is comprehensive and prosaic. Each entry is broken down to its "Basics," with "Problem Solvers," "Time Savers," "Flavor Tips" and "Healthy Hints" that can be ignored or pressed into service as necessary. Joachim (Prevention's The Healthy Cook) includes over 1,000 full-blown recipes, mostly American standards like Pot Roast or Classic Macaroni and Cheese, though a few are more adventurous (Indian Ground Meat Kabobs made with lamb, Black Olive Tapenade). Most are quickly and easily executed, and difficult tasks like prepping artichokes are illustrated with simple drawings. Throughout the book, sidebars feature groups of related recipes such as Five Low-Fat Creamy Salad Dressings or Three Quick Dishes Using Frozen Broccoli (soup, pasta and stir-fry). A feature titled "Fascinating Facts" provides historical tidbits about food. (Peppercorns, for instance, "were once more valuable than gold.") Joachim also offers tips on setting up a kitchen, estimating food for a crowd and throwing a party. At the end of the book he includes charts listing measurement conversions, ingredient substitutes, pan sizes and, for cooks truly in crisis, phone numbers for "Holiday Hotlines" such as the Butterball Turkey Talk-Line. Gourmets will scoff at such low-brow touches (and at the general-audience prose), but kitchen novices will find the content usefully arrayed and presented. (July 11)Forecast: Rodale has staked out a middle ground between the IDS Dummies series and lush, upscale guides. Joachim, who makes frequent TV appearances, should bring some name recognition to this title, which, combined with the Rodale brand, will achieve solid sales.

From Booklist

Despite the title's hyperbole, Brilliant Food Tips and Cooking Tricks presents an encyclopedic range of simple and sound advice identifying and describing common ingredients and kitchen techniques. David Joachim offers the confused and questioning cook a helping hand with substitutions and shortcuts such as using pressure cooking to save time or browning meat in a broiler while browning vegetables in a pot before combining them in a braising pot. He also distinguishes bruschetta from crostini. Recipes illustrate specifically the use of some of Joachim's suggestions. Librarians will find this a helpful volume for answering telephone reference questions from panicky cooks. Mark Knoblauch

5.0étoiles sur 5 My favorite and most used cookbook!, Jui 2 2004
Par Andrew Guss (SLC, Ut United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
If I am about to cook something that I am not completely sure about, I will spend a few seconds looking it up in this book first. My cooking has improved dramatically since I have been using this and Bittman's wonderful "How to Cook Everything," which I find to be more exhaustive than this terse treasure. Brilliant is a joy to leaf through, a reliable reference, and a wonderfully instructive kitchen guide. My dining guests are envious of the skills I have gained from this book and I am constantly tempted to try new dishes and old ones prepared in novel ways. I recommend this as the most rewarding cooking reference to reach for first.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Brilliant, indeed, Fév 13 2004
Par Robin Wolfson "Reliza" (Cameron Park, CA USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
How many tablespoons of juice are in a lemon? What size dish is a "two-quart casserole"? For questions like this, you turn to "Brilliant," a truly great reference that belongs on the shelf with "The Joy of Cooking" (if you haven't ordered the latest edition, be sure to; there are lots of new recipes that no one had heard of when my first copy was published in 1963).

"Brilliant" is a pure kitchen reference book that is as useful as any dictionary, encylopedia, or the Internet. Buy it and then browse through it to familiarize yourself with the contents. You'll be amazed at how often you refer to it.

5.0étoiles sur 5 It's brilliant!, Mai 8 2003
Par Un client
I have only three cookbooks that I use regularly and this is one of them. I highly recommend it if you're a good cook who sometimes needs some guidance or suggestions. For example, for a new twist on tuna cakes, the recipe in this book calls for condensed cream of mushroom soup - the cakes were delicious. In fact, everything I've made has been great. The book's format is especially useful when you need to substitute an ingredient (say, you ran out of buttermilk and have only regular milk) or need to use up an ingredient or whip something up on short notice.
