Title: Worse than useless
Review: This book is basically ten recipes with 'variations' ("Add walnuts!"). Instead of doing a technique section followed by individual recipies, he went crazy with cut and paste, including the same paragraphs about technique in each recipe on every single page. I don't know if this is because he's a bad writer or if the publisher was trying to pad the length and make the book appear more substantial than it is, but either way it is very annoying. There is no background whatsoever, no nice pictures or interesting sidebars, just page after page of the same recipe in the same format using the exact same sentences. Many of his recipes also produce a bad result (e.g. the green tea recipe) so I have to wonder if anyone actually tried them or if he just had a brainstorm and thoughtlessly wrote it down.Do not buy this book. It's an insult to your intelligence. You would be so much better off with "Everybody Loves Ice Cream", the Williams-Sonoma book, or the Ben & Jerry's book.
