About this item

Welcome to New York City's most popular cooking class -- now in a book!

You'll learn the proper way to handle a chef's knife, cook meat to perfection, create impressive pan sauces, and prepare restaurant-worthy vegetable dishes. Plus, you'll discover which ingredients truly make a difference in a home kitchen (kosher salt, extra-virgin olive oil, and Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, to start) . Each technique chapter includes a collection of flavorful recipes, so you can practice your newfound skills while cooking delicious meals.
