Looks awesome from a skim through. Decent recipes, but a ton of background information on the food science, history, and basic skills.


First up for a try is a simple shrimp dish. Basically marinate shrimp, place half a basil leaf on it, wrap in prosciutto and grill. I'll let you all know how it goes...

Success!





Not the prettiest wrapping job, but they taste pretty good. Freaking prosciutto is expensive though. Is there a domestic product that's basically the same? I figure bacon would work well, but not the same flavor...

Crepes were an epic fail.
