Critics Review
An excellent book for reading, learning, and a bit of nostalgia.
An excellent book for reading, learning, and a bit of nostalgia. –Christian Science Monitor On The New Making of a Cook: “This monumental, professional, thorough, and well-researched book is inspiring. Combining French savoir-faire-Cartesian thinking with American ingenuity, enthusiasm, and unconventionality, Madeleine Kamman has produced a remarkable work that will be edifying for any cook but essential for the serious culinary student.” –Jacques Pepin
Madeleine Kamman
Kamman was born in Paris and educated in modern languages in the French school system.
