Nora or Devereaux Cannon
*How to Read a French Fry * is a great book about why certain
cooking techniques work. Given the current preoccupation with
Ice Cream, Doughnuts, and Dead Kine, folks might like to strew it
among their own cookbook section. I know that I am a serious
enough cook to benefit from it - and that I have learned a hell
of a lot more chemistry in the kitchen than in somebody else's
lab.
