This review is from: Professional Charcuterie: Sausage Making, Curing, Terrines and Pates (Hardcover)
The arithmetic is disappointing as very few conversions add up in any system, least of all the metric system. The information contained in this book is not of sufficient depth for such a critical subject as food safety. Some of the recipes are wrong when it comes to the amount or type of Prague powder and generally contain too much pepper and herbs. The Frankfurter recipe is simply inedible. These guys are supposed to be chefs? And when are we going to be told what the European equivalent of Corn Syrup Solids is?

5.0 out of 5 stars Packed full of information., 13 Aug 2001
This review is from: Professional Charcuterie: Sausage Making, Curing, Terrines and Pates (Hardcover)
At first glance this book will look expensive, but there are none of the usual pictures you get in cookbooks, so it is solid information. Although this is a professional guide it is very useful for the home/hobby cook. If you have never made Sausages, terrines or pate before I would not recommend this book to the beginner. Also a lot of the recipes call for smoking the products, so if you don't have access to a smoker you should be aware of this.

All recipes contain temperature guides from smoking which is excellent and measurements are in both US and Metric.

This is a very rich source of information for both professionals and experienced sausage makers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great read!, 12 July 2010
This review is from: Professional Charcuterie: Sausage Making, Curing, Terrines and Pates (Hardcover)
At last I've read this book, I've waited years to receive this book for past birthdays and yet the hints I dropped never sunk in with my family members. I'm a Professional Charcutier myself and yet I learnt a few things from this book once I purchased it myself that is. Excellent for the hobbyist charcutier or beginner to get on the road of culinary success.
