Book Reviews of Tyler Florence's Real Kitchen: An Indispensable Guide for Anybody Who Likes to Cook

Book Review: know how to cook first
Summary: 3 Stars

Echoing many of the sentiments already stated, I would say that it is almost a must that you have some experience in the kitchen before trying most of these recipes. Some of them are indeed wondeful and tasty, but Tyler's very informal way of communicating ("counts" of oil, no exact times for some preparations: "until it's perfumy") may leave your recipe ruined. For instance, if you don't know before hand that cooking crab cakes in a non-stick skillet (Tyler doesn't specify, he just says "skillet") is an absolute must, your $30 worth of lump crabmeat might just go into the garbage. Given that Tyler is a "celebrity" chef, and purchasers of this book will probably consist of a certain number of novice chefs, the shorthand communication style of the book is a massive oversight.
