 An Important Reference for the Healthy Kitchen January 27, 2002
17 out of 17 found this review helpful
The wealth of information contained in The Professional Chef's Techniques of Healthy Cooking is "must have" for the dedicated healthy kitchen. Each topic is fully discussed, and a full set of appendices offers quick access to a variety of nutritional and food prep tables. Recipes included in the book prepare large volumes of food in most cases, but they provide good general guidelines, cooking techniques and ideas for the creative cook. First rate photography illustrates the versatility of a healthy diet and adds considerably to the volume's visual appeal. The comprehensive information in this beautiful book is the perfect "go to" reference -- I couldn't recommend it more highly.
 Good for the talented amateur chef July 3, 2001

This book provides a number of helpful suggestions for the knowledgeable amateur who is interested in learning healthier techniques, (ie - poach carrots in orange juice and ginger). The "background" on nutrition, however, is rather elementary.
Healthy Cooking Education April 4, 2000

This book contains an incredible amount of excellent information. It contains everything you need to know for an education in healthy cooking techniques. There are excellent photographs. The recipes are very well explained and each recipe contains a nutritional analysis. Although a basic knowledge of cooking would be helpful for alot of the recipes, a novice cook who is very focused should be able to get quite a bit out of the book.
Excellent Book for the Health Conscious Cook! April 4, 2000
31 out of 31 found this review helpful
This is an excellent resource for over 400 easy and elegant recipes. Not only are the recipes delicious, the author teaches you how to incorporate more fruits, vegetables, legumes and grains into your diet. I have been searching for a cook book that provides delicious meals without sacrificing taste, and this fits the bill! If you are looking to monitor your weight, this book is an wonderful source of fabulous recipes. I definately recommend it!
