Ad Hoc at Home
friederike from Berlin,
I actually only bought this book around the end of the cookbooker challenge (or maybe even after?), because I read all those raving reviews and figured it must be worth it. And yes, it is a very good book. I love all the step-by-step instructions he provides for several recipes/techniques, and the feeling that you can trust his vast knowledge and experience.
And yet I find the book quite intimidating. It's really not quite the book for normal day-to-day cooking, though it probably could be, if you take the time to get acquainted with it (and preferably stick to some of the simpler recipes).
