Great instruction manual!
I finally splurged and got a nice set of knives and the first week I used them my fingers were all sliced up - thought I needed some instruction, and this book caught my eye. I learned a lot from the book about how I'm supposed to be handling my knives to use them properly and safely. All it took was following the instructions and then lots of practice. The book also explains they types of knives and their uses and details the proper way to cut up/slice various meats, fruits and veggies. I found the material extremely helpful and easy to follow. The pictures are very clear and explanatory. I found this book to be a game changer!

Must have
I bought this for my teen for her cooking lessons. The pages are good quality, detailed, and excellent photographs. We love the spiral bound pages. The book stays nice and flat on kitchen counter.

Great content but
I had to cut from bottom to top about 16-20 pages that were folded together AND had to unstick many more pages from the rings area. Tread slowly and it all is good since pages are good quality. Very great content! Ordered another for my son. Hope he is luckier.

I wish I owned a copy when it was first published!
About a year ago I was house-sitting for a friend-of-a-friend and happened to see this book in their kitchen. I've enjoyed cooking for over 50 years (strictly amateur, believe me) but have had my share of compliments from friends, family, etc. Over the years I've owned a wide range of knives, cookbooks, etc. and have learned a few tricks of the trade:This is more like a 1-on-1 tutorial by a master chef than a mere textbook. The pages on cutting onions is worth the price of admission alone. Btw, if you're ever searching for a gift for anyone who likes to cook, well, look no further than this. Winner, winner chicken dinner!

Utile
Per chi ha l'hobby della cucina, ma non ha mai seguito un corso specifico, è un libro utilissimo, se non altro perché spiega come pulire e preparare rapidamente gli alimenti "difficili" da trattare.
