About
the Series
Young chefs have been learning about the joy of
cooking with Chef Matthew Locricchio’s
Superchef
series for almost ten years. This updated and expanded second
edition invites a new generation of readers to the kitchen to experience the
satisfactions of preparing authentic international recipes and sharing their
creations with friends and family.
Each book opens with a
region-by-region look at the focused country and their culinary traditions and
contributions to international cuisine. This cultural introduction is followed
with an overview of kitchen safety, food handling, and common sense nutrition,
then on to a wide variety of recipes that range from soups and salads to main
entrées and desserts. In addition to spectacular (and tantalizing)
full-color photos, each book is enhanced with line art demonstrating basic
instructions and tips from the chef, making each recipe easy to
follow.
Praise
for the first edition:
"These books are welcome
additions. Both children and their parents will be cooking like
locals."
