 Written on January 9, 2007 Summary: Love it love it loveit! I'm an Alton fan- he made cooking fun, the stuff comes out better, and this book on Stuff to Buy is really well done. Yeah, groan- but it is. I lost my stuff in Katrina New Orleans- so this was actually a nifty guide for a new kitchen. And new ideas for me. He's actually pretty honest in this book about what works and what doesn't, as well as interesting uses for stuff from the hardware store. It's about creative multitasking and a lean kitchen. The stuff on the show now is all about The Deal- but the book is about saving money and when to cheap out. I'm really pleased with it. Written on January 3, 2007 Summary: If you just can't get enough of AB This book isn't bad, though I expected more for the price. It takes the key points from his other 2 books specifically regarding tools of the kitchen and elaborates on them. It's an excellent reference for gadget shopping. It's your own personal hard-bound "W" without the put-downs. You may have noticed that there are no brand labels shown in the later Good Eats episodes for licensing reasons. Not the case with this book. He tells you straight out which brands he prefers. No more late-night Google image searches comparing video footage to actual models. I received this as a gift and I'm very happy to have it. But if you're on a budget... Well, if you're on a budget, don't bother with cook-books! But if you're torn between his cook-book, bake-book, and this gear-book, get the cook-book & bake-book. Written on November 10, 2006 Summary: LOVED IT Alton Brown is THE BEST. This book is useful as well as entertaining. Written on July 11, 2006 Summary: If you have anything in your kitchen cupboards, this is for you First of all, let me say that Alton Brown is my hero, and if he wrote a book about knitting needles I'd probably buy it. That said, this really is a great book that I'd buy no matter who wrote it. Part user's manual, part field guide, and part cookbook, this concise little gem of a book has just tons of great information packed into it. The section on knives alone is worth the book price, IMHO. Shopping for skillets and not sure if you should get anodized or cast aluminum? Wondering what that funny plastic hand-cranked gizmo you found in your Grandma's bottom kitchen drawer is? (It's a bean frencher, by the way.) Not sure of the difference between an orange peel and a pizza peel? If any of these questions apply to you, then get this book. Besides, what other book in existence explains how a Thermos works eight pages after a recipe for Baba Ghanoush? Written on March 1, 2006 Summary: Fun, simple, and very informative Alton Brown's books are the few cooking oriented books I've actually read cover to cover, then refer to again later. He advocates simplicity, explains clearly why he would choose a particular cooking implement over another (often more costly) one, and does it with fun prose. He appeals to me particularly because if told the "why' of something (which he always does), I am much more likely to remember and use the advice. |
