Written for the professional as well as the amateur cook, this
is an invitation to the kitchen from a revered chef who combines
traditional techniques and modern sensibility. From the reinvention
of French food through the fine dining revolution in America,
Daniel Boulud has been witness to, and creator of, our contemporary
food culture. A modern man with a classical foundation, who worked
up from scullery boy in Provence to international celebrity, he
speaks with the authority that comes from a lifetime of experience,
and no small amount of passion, about the vocation of creating and
serving food. "Letters to a Young Chef" displays Boulud''s earthy,
expert and encouraging style. Some of the topics addressed are: Why
do you want to be a chef? Posing the fundamental question before
one enters the long years of apprenticeship; Pay your dues. How one
must take one''s time to learn the craft; What is success? What it
takes to really make it, and how to manage your ego and know your
limits; and, The chef of tomorrow. How the global village has
affected cuisine, and the importance of travel in cooking today?
These and many more delights will enlighten chefs of all kinds,
from passionate amateurs to serious professionals. Ranging broadly
in subject matter, these brief, intellectual primers to life are a
stimulating read for anyone who wants to experience the insights,
wisdom and advice of today''s leading minds.
