I’ve recently gotten into cooking, but have jumped in with both feet. I have been making more than we can eat, just to see how the recipe will come out, and experimenting already.
I want to know the differences between Mr. Gisslen’s 5th, 6th, and 7th (trade) and college editions, and which I should get. I plan on getting the baking volume too.
Been enjoying Child’s and Hazan’s and Mathiot’s books, will Gisslen’s books make them obsolete?
Thanks for any input, Paul.
