He's also very passionate about cooking. This book is like nothing we saw before. It contains everything you could think of (and even what you wouldn't), about a professional kitchen. So complete, well organized and explaining everything clearly. Is a great book for those working in kitchens and also for those who just simply love cooking. I checked the book before giving it to my friend, to make shore is the right thing, and I was amazed. So many things, questions I had, recipes I was looking for everywhere to find the right one, there were just there, all in one book. I can only say one thing: buy it, it worth every penny. If you like to cook, you will fall in love with this book. Review: An Awesome Textbook! - I must admit, this is the first cooking school textbook I've purchased. I see no need in purchasing another as this one pretty much covers all bases. I got the idea after watching "The Freshman Class" on the Cooking Channel. I'm not sure, but this looks like the textbook they use at the Louisiana Culinary Institute in Baton Rouge (where the show is taped). Use it just as you would any textbook. It's for learning, and yes, I take notes. Every page is choked full of useful information which will take you from an "okay" cook to one who truly knows his way around the kitchen. There are a few very classic recipes to help you achieve certain cooking concepts, but do not buy it for the recipes. Buy it to learn how to understand what true cooking and baking is all about. It WILL elevate your cooking abilities to a new level! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 0470197528 | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,306,405 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #287 in Professional Cooking (Books) #11,756 in Culinary Arts & Techniques (Books) #68,785 in Textbooks (Special Features Stores) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (231) | | Dimensions | 8.5 x 1.8 x 10.9 inches | | Edition | 7th | | ISBN-10 | 9780470197523 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0470197523 | | Item Weight | 20.9 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 1120 pages | | Publication date | January 1, 2010 | | Publisher | WILEY | ## Images ![Professional Cooking - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/9175JBEAuuL.jpg) ![Professional Cooking - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/910YVjp7CzL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great investment *by A***E on September 2, 2011* I bought this book as a gift for my friend, who's working as a butcher in a 5* hotels kitchen and is responsible for everything related to meat: planing the meat menus, ordering the meats, seasoning, preparing it in all the ways necessary.

I see no need in purchasing another as this one pretty much covers all bases. I got the idea after watching "The Freshman Class" on the Cooking Channel. I'm not sure, but this looks like the textbook they use at the Louisiana Culinary Institute in Baton Rouge (where the show is taped). Use it just as you would any textbook. It's for learning, and yes, I take notes. Every page is choked full of useful information which will take you from an "okay" cook to one who truly knows his way around the kitchen. There are a few very classic recipes to help you achieve certain cooking concepts, but do not buy it for the recipes. Buy it to learn how to understand what true cooking and baking is all about. It WILL elevate your cooking abilities to a new level! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is not a cookbook, serious chefs only... *by E***1 on January 24, 2011* This is a fantastic compilation of knowledge! I used this book in culinary arts school as the text for 2 separate courses. It is filled with information and should be on the shelves of any chef, aspiring chef and serious self-taught home cook that wants to LEARN. If you are looking for recipes and for a "witty" dialogue with a not so bright or overly cheery housewife author, shop around - this isn't that book. If you are looking for a college text (10th grade reading level...) teeming with information....ding ding ding you picked a winner. The recipes are basic, but suffice to say there is a chapter or more of information leading up to the recipe, if your dish doesn't turn out, you can only blame yourself :) Bon Appetit! ## Frequently Bought Together - Professional Cooking - The New Whole Foods Encyclopedia: A Comprehensive Resource for Healthy Eating --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/3078344-professional-cooking](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/3078344-professional-cooking) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-05-16*
