This book is an easy to read instruction manual about the common mistakes that family and every day cooks make when they are preparing standard recipes. Over 75 recipes are included, which include the recipe on how to make the dish, and a picture of the perfect sample. Each recipe also includes a picture of how the recipe can go wrong, and points about what the common mistakes are. The introduction includes what equipment you need to have a fully functioning kitchen and basic ingredients that every kitchen should have as well. There are sections on which herbs to buy and a few basics about baking are included. Chapters include Eggs, Breads, Potatoes, Rice Dishes, Meat, Fish, Chicken, Vegetables, Sauces and Baking.
