The Essential Culinary Guide
Dr Chef Soundararajan in his book ‘The Essential Culinary Guide: Back to the Basics‘ really takes you back to the basics of food… right from buying ingredients to storing and cooking them.
For instance, there are several methods of preserving culinary herbs: to keep them fresh, keep the stems in cold water or wrap them in paper towels and refrigerate. If you want to store for three months put them, after washing and drying in a jar or oil or wash, chop and freeze.
While techniques like these are commonly known, this is just the tip of the ice berg, you’ll find over 3000 such techniques starting from simple ones to complex state of the art techniques. Read the article ‘Flavoured with simple details‘ by clicking here, where Chef Soundar talks about his book.
