The cookbook mold is about to be broken again with a new book (the first since 2012) from America's most celebrated chef, Thomas Keller--this time focusing on his legendary American fine dining institutions, the French Laundry and Per Se.
A revolution in cooking Sous vide is the culinary innovation that has everyone in the food world talking. In this revolutionary new cookbook, Thomas Keller, America's most respected chef, explains why this foolproof technique, which involves cooking at precise temperatures below simmering, yields results that other culinary methods cannot. For the first time, one can achieve short ribs that are meltingly tender even when cooked medium rare. Fish, which has a small window of doneness, is easier to finesse, and shellfish stays succulent no matter how long it's been on the stove. Fruit and vegetables benefit, too, retaining color and flavor while undergoing remarkable transformations in texture. The secret to sous vide is in discovering the precise amount of heat required to achieve the most sublime results. Through years of trial and error, Keller and his chefs de cuisine have blazed the trail to perfectionand they show the way in this collection of never-before-published recipes from his landmark restaurantsThe French Laundry in Napa Valley and per se in New York. With an introduction by the eminent food-science writer Harold McGee, and artful photography by Deborah Jones, who photographed Keller's best-selling The French Laundry Cookbook, this book will be a must for every culinary professional and anyone who wants to up the ante and experience food at the highest level.
Thomas Keller shares family-style recipes that you can make any or every day.In the book every home cook has been waiting for, the revered Thomas Keller turns his imagination to the American comfort foods closest to his heart-flaky biscuits, chicken pot pies, New England clam bakes, and cherry pies so delicious and redolent of childhood that they give Proust's madeleines a run for their money. Keller, whose restaurants The French Laundry in Yountville, California, and Per Se in New York have revolutionized American haute cuisine, is equally adept at turning out simpler fare. In Ad Hoc at Home-a cookbook inspired by the menu of his casual restaurant Ad Hoc in Yountville-he showcases more than 200 recipes for family-style meals. This is Keller at his most playful, serving up such truck-stop classics as Potato Hash with Bacon and Melted Onions and grilled-cheese sandwiches, and heartier fare including beef Stroganoff and roasted spring leg of lamb. In fun, full-color photographs, the great chef gives step-by-step lessons in kitchen basics- here is Keller teaching how to perfectly shape a basic hamburger, truss a chicken, or dress a salad. Best of all, where Keller's previous best-selling cookbooks were for the ambitious advanced cook, Ad Hoc at Home is filled with quicker and easier recipes that will be embraced by both kitchen novices and more experienced cooks who want the ultimate recipes for American comfort-food classics.
The personal journey of a designer and scientist through the field of fiber-polymer composites. Composites in Structural Engineering and Architecture is about the author's twenty-five-year journey as a pioneer, scientist, designer, and lecturer in the field of fiber-polymer composites as applied to structural engineering and architecture. Composites are construction materials that offer unique properties when compared to conventional materials such as reinforced concrete or steel. In addition to their excellent mechanical properties, their physical properties- including low thermal conductivity, transparency, and color-allow structural building physics and architectural functions to be integrated into individual features of buildings. This merging of functions in buildings, in addition to the modular and hybrid composite construction of bridges, gives rise to novel and compelling solutions regarding structural safety, serviceability, aesthetics, economy, and sustainability. Alongside these opportunities, however, composites may also reveal limitations in their structural application, which can be caused by their anisotropy or viscoelasticity, or in terms of ductility, fatigue, fire resistance, and durability. The monograph first addresses these limitations from a scientific point of view and then demonstrates how they can be overcome through suitable structural and architectural design. Subsequently, it is shown how the opportunities can be explored and the current design space expanded, to allow composites to develop to their full potential in structural engineering and architecture.
Ever wondered how someone can get rid of a spouse only to attract another one with the same problems and then do it again? And again. Ever wondered why you quit one job but the same problems arise in the next job? And the next job. Have you ever told yourself you give and give and give but no one gives to you? Are you fed up with manifesting the same people in different bodies, the same problems at different jobs and the same takers when you tell yourself you're a giver? Then it's time to create CONSCIOUSLY! The Mirror is a simple transformative tool that can be applied to your life every day. The Mirror works, it always works and will always tell you the truth because it is based on the Universal Laws of Correspondence and Mentalism. Universal Laws are impersonal and are always impacting our lives whether we are aware of them or not. By picking up this book you are receiving information that has only been reserved for a chosen few in the past. Now you have the opportunity to master these principles and transform your blind spots, those things that have held you back in the past, and live a life beyond your wildest dreams!
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2005 im Fachbereich Geschichte Europas - Mittelalter, Frühe Neuzeit, Note: 1,3, Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin (Institut für Geschichtswissenschaften), Veranstaltung: Die Reconquista (Proseminar), Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Diese Arbeit geht der Frage nach, inwiefern Reconquista und Ostsiedlung Parallelen aufweisen. Der Autor bezieht sich dabei auf eine These von R. Bartlett, der davon ausgeht, dass diese beiden Vorgänge innerhalb der europäischen Expansion des Hohen und Späten Mittelalters sehr ähnlich gewesen sind und geht der Frage nach, inwieweit diese These verifiziert werden kann und es tatsächlich Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede gibt. Der Autor geht dabei davon aus, dass die Reconquista geregelter und geordneter ablief, als die deutsche Siedlung in Ostmittel- und Osteuropa. Hierzu wird untersucht, welche Rollen Dörfer und Städte hatten und wie die Bevölkerungsstruktur der eroberten Gebiete war.Die Arbeit gibt einen kurzen historischen Überblick über die Ostsiedlung sowie über die Reconquista und Repoblacion. Im Hauptteil wird die Rolle von Dörfern und Städten untersucht. Für die Untersuchung der sogenannten deutschen Ostsiedlung wurde das Gebiet der Mark Brandenburg herangezogen.De Autor kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass Reconquista und deutsche Ostsiedlung durchaus Parallelen aufweisen. In beiden Fällen wurde der Missions- und Kreuzzugsgedanke verwendet, um eine Eroberung zu rechtfertigen oder zu initiieren. Allerdings gab es bei der Besiedlung oder Vergabe von Land gravierende Unterschiede. Mudejares und Moriscos wurden in Spanien nur eine zeitlang geduldet und mussten immer in abgetrennten Stadtvierteln oder Vorstädten leben. Die slawische Bevölkerung hingegen wurde meistens nicht vertrieben, sondern vermischte sich mit Neusiedlern oder lebte gleichberechtigt neben diesen und war nur im Sonderfall der Kietze nicht gleichberechtigt.
Fatigue of Fiber-reinforced Composites describes the fatigue behavior of several types of composite materials. Based on a presentation of experimental results, the chapters demonstrate theoretical models for predicting the fatigue life of composites and cover complete design methodologies.
Contains recipes, essays, profiles, and photography. This work includes one hundred and fifty recipes, which are receipts from the French Laundry kitchen.
