I love spending ALL DAY on a spectacular meal with several dishes. If you want to make a full Charlie Trotter meal, with at least three courses, it will take a Thanksgiving Day sort of effort. You'll spend hours reducing beet juice or wine, less than a tablespoon of which will be drizzled around a plate of four or five other components that took the whole day, too. You'll make a stock out of $20 worth of mushrooms where the mushrooms themselves get thrown into the compost. You'll find recipes that call for two of the recipes in the appendix....one of which calls for another recipe in the appendix! You will sit down to that meal aching and hot and proud.If that's your idea of fun as much as it is mine, you will enjoy this book.But the eye-opening part of this book for me was all the techniques for drawing the essence out of vegetables. And the way he will use different preparations of the same ingredient in one dish - fennel upon fennel upon fennel. Though there are several recipes that take a surprisingly short amount of time - someone else mentioned the soups, but there are others - they draw out the flavor of just a few ingredients in unexpected (at least for me) ways.A couple reviews here claim that Trotter calls for expensive, obscure ingredients and doesn't offer substitutions. I find that claim silly. In many of the recipes that call for, say, fresh porcini mushrooms he says to substitute if you want, but just in general, he assumes that the reader is a fairly accomplished home cook who knows that he's laying out a style of cooking to learn from, not a prescription to be followed robotically.That said, the style found here is a little dated. I'm sure if Trotter were writing this (or cooking!) today, he would choose a different arsenal of tricks. Not being a professional chef myself, I struggle to explain what is not modern about these recipes, but I can tell you that I feel like my creativity in the kitchen was expanded for having cooked a few of these meals, and that's plenty for me to recommend a cookbook. And I plan to cook more! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Great book *by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2021* This book goes into detail and talks about about how represent the ingredients that you are using in the best way possible. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars For all Lover's of food. *by B***I on Reviewed in the United States on December 9, 2014* I am a cook from Cleveland, I've been in the field since age 14, I am now 18 years old. I would recommend this book to any aspiring chef. Coming from casual dining, to then 'gourmet' burgers, to casual fine dining, to now 12 course fine dining, I could have related to this book at any point. Mr Trotter is a visionary, and his views are beautifully conveyed in this book. All of these recipes can be practiced at home and come handy is so many real life situations at the restaurant. I now plan on buying Trotter's other cookbooks, this being the general one he also has a book for every division of course, as in a book for seafood, desserts, meat, etc. I bought this use, and recommend you do the same, you will not be disappointed. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/11290099-charlie-trotters-hardcover-november-1-1994](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/11290099-charlie-trotters-hardcover-november-1-1994) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-25*
