I just bought the French Culinary Institute's "The Fundamental Techniques of Classic Cuisine" from Barnes and Noble. It is easily the best cookbook I've read. Not that I have read it all yet - it is 500 pages of cooking theory, recipes, and pictures. Its pretty expensive (54.00 for members), but worth it for me.

I'm only through like 50 pages so far and have already found 10 or so fundamental mistakes I have been making.

Wow, good to know that there's a book. I was considering paying the big bucks to take the course here in NY. I think I'd rather just read the book!

Note you can pick it up for $47 (plus free delivery i believe) on amazon

Pic is too far away! The most purty colorful food I've seen you make and it's hard to see! I'm sure it was good though.

Is that on the floor or a table? I really like those tiles.

My bad. Go-go-gadget digital-zoom?



Those tiles are our coffee table that serves as a dining-room table. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] The sushi was crab, tuna, and awesome red snapper.

We couldn't quite finish it all; if you want, I'm happy to mail you a piece...

Sounds cool. If you don't mind, what kinds of things are you learning?

Nice! Makis have a little too much rice.
