'Recipes that teach as they go, full of lightbulb moments that build real confidence in the kitchen. This is how it's done!' â€“ Yotam Ottolenghi 'A cookbook full of not just recipes but an insight into the mind of a chef â€“ tricks and techniques that will make you a better cook.' â€“ Anna Jones 'A valuable resource for all cooks, it is indispensable. I couldn't be more admiring.' â€“ Nigella Lawson Named one of the Best Cookbooks this Winter by FORBES â€“ One of the most important things you can do whilst cooking is to ask why? Why am I adding salt now and not later? Why am I preheating my pan? Why has my chocolate mousse split? Why does this taste so good?! In his debut book, Ben Lippett distils his years of experience as a professional chef in restaurants all over the world to reveal the hows and whys behind everything we do when preparing food. Through over 100 recipes youâ€™ll learn skills and techniques that can be applied to any recipe, enabling you to chop, fold, sautÃ© and whisk your way through this book and gain confidence and competence in the kitchen. Youâ€™ll master the art of temperature control while perfecting the French Omelette, put together peerless pastas with Crab Tagliolini and Sunday Sauce, learn how to butterfly fish like a pro serving up Stuffed Bass with Fregola, â€˜Nduja and Gordal Olives, and find out all you need to know about making wonderfully soft and supple enriched dough when treating yourself to Doughnuts â€˜Myrtilleâ€™. Guided by Benâ€™s expert hand, How I Cook is your new kitchen companion, unlocking really good home cooking, one recipe at a time.
