This is a great read I agree. Way more than recipes! I steal, err I mean, cook from it all the time. I consider a reference book on so many levels. GREG

This is really up there on my to-buy list. I've heard so many good things about it, all over food blogs and the Internet, especially about the roast chicken. Thanks for reminding me!

thanks for the review. i've been trying to figure out if i should buy this book or not. sounds like it's worth it, but i'm going to hunt down a second hand copy.

Couldn't agree with you more, Nick – this cookbook is awesome, and the recipe for roast chicken is fantastic. The recipes are involved, though – they really do go on for page after page. It's a very different style of cooking from, say, Cook's Illustrated. I'm still on the fence about whether this is something I'm willing to do regularly at home – it's fun once a week or so, but I can't cook like this every day.
