The World's Greatest Culinary Encyclopedia
Publication Date: 02/10/2001
Since its first publication in 1938, <b>Larousse Gastronomique</b> has been an unparalleled resource. In one volume, it presents the history of foods, eating, and restaurants; cooking terms; techniques from elementary to advanced; a review of basic ingredients with advice on recognizing, buying, storing, and using them; biographies of important culinary figures; and recommendations for cooking nearly everything.<br /> <br /> The new edition, the first since 1988, expands the book&#8217;s scope from classic continental cuisine to include the contemporary global table, appealing to a whole new audience of internationally conscious cooks. Larousse Gastronomique is still the last word on b&#233;chamel and b&#233;arnaise, Brillat-Savarin and Bordeaux, but now it is also the go-to source on biryani and bok choy, bruschetta and Bhutan rice.<br /> <br /> <b>Larousse Gastronomique</b> is rich with classic and classic-to-be recipes, new ingredients, new terms and techniques, as well as explanations of current food legislation, labeling, and technology. User-friendly design elements create a whole new Larousse for a new generation of food lovers.
