Do you know the Plachutta principle? It can be easily explained: to convey practical cooking in a way that is easy to understand and follow. The overwhelming positive response to Volume 1 prompted Ewald Plachutta, one of Austria's most renowned chefs and cookbook authors, to continue his "Bible of Good Cooking." While the first volume primarily focused on boiled and fried dishes, the new volume emphasizes baked goods. This includes savory casseroles and spicy quiches, as well as a rich selection of delicious cakes and refined pastries. With over 550 new recipes, this book is an essential addition to Cooking School 1. The didactic structure is both clever and simple: for each topic, the most important information is presented at a glance. Basic recipes illustrate what matters most. The details of each step are also explained clearly and understandably.
