pity bump

I was underwhelmed by silver spoon, I expected there to be more baked ziti and sunday gravy, and WTF? it was all weird stuff like fish with the head still on it. is this a third world cookbook for third world people? I only eat food that isn't alive when you kill it.

Loving this book, some of the recipes and processes can be rather involved. I've made about 5 or 6 things out of it and the results have been great.

This one is worth buying for the pantry section alone. You can learn how to make world-class stocks and purees there.

Also gonna recommend The French Laundry cookbook for similar reasons. Maybe you won't execute the 3-star dishes, but you are sure to get a idea of how to execute general items at that level.

Also, if anyone would be so kind as to download this one:
http://uploadrocket.net/la5xby2okgld.htm
and rehost it somewhere else (and post in the thread on where), I'd appreciate it. ULR blocks downloads from my geolocation. Filescdn.com would be the site I'd prefer it on, with DailyUploads.net or Suprafiles.co being others that work for me.

Mastering the art of Japanese cooking by morimoto, if you're a casual cook, but interestes in making home style Japanese dishes. I found a lot of useful info even though I do tweak based on my own preferences.

I would disregard the curry rice recipe in it though.
