I’m Just Here for the Food: Food + Heat = Cooking (Alton Brown)

Product Info

Mr. Brown is the author of ten cookbooks, beginning with this one. He is not a chef. He is not a restauranteur. But blending humor, wisdom, history, pop culture, science and basic cooking knowledge, he has kept his audience amused, interested and coming back for more for over 20 years. Referencing his long-running (16 seasons plus a re-boot) TV show on Food Network, a source says, “Equal parts smart and sardonic, creator and host Alton Brown uses a combination of classroom methods and wacky comedy sketches to explain not just how to whip up an excellent dish, but also why the ingredients interact as they do when you put them all together. Brown has said that the show's inspiration is to combine Julia Child, Mr. Wizard and ‘Monty Python’.” His book is a cooking guide that starts with a “master” recipe for each technique. He provides a vast array of tips and advice related to his food. On offer is a 2002 edition, 11th printing, with no dust jacket. The book is in nearly new condition. (previously owned)
