Thanks to Anna Balasi of Hachette Books, I am giving away up to 3 copies of this book.
Book Dsescription:
Louis Eguaras, a renowned chef at the Le Cordon Bleu Program at the California School of Culinary Arts, provides readers with a terrific overview of what is truly involved in the preparation, cooking, and presentation of meals. He also provides invaluable insights into just what is involved in making this one’s chosen profession.
The book will feature a wide range of illustrated lessons, from how to properly hold a knife… to the history of food… from food preparation and presentation… to restaurant hospitality and management, and much more.
The book will be presented in the distinctive and highly-attractive packaged style of 101 THINGS I LEARNED IN ARCHITECTURE SCHOOL, and will be the perfect gift for anyone who is thinking about entering culinary school, is already enrolled, or even just the casual chef.
The number of entrants to this giveaway will determine how many copies of this book I will giveaway:

This sounds really fun. My husband works for The Chef’s Academy so it would be great for me to find out what they actually learn there. (He is in financial aid, not a chef.)

I’ve been cooking a lot more at home and really need some instruction on the basics… like how to hold and use a knife (17 stitches later!).
