“This book is for those who love food. If you understand the cultural and ethereal impact of food, if you truly love food, read on.” IACP is the largest and most prestigious international group of food professionals in existence. Not only composed of chefs, other members are food writers, food photographers, culinary historians, marketing professionals, food manufacturers and cooking teachers. How appropriate it is to publish a cookbook featuring a collection of recipes, memoirs and stories from some of the Association’s distinguished chefs. Last year this collection came together featuring the work of thirty-four of the world’s greatest cooks. Such a book cannot be reviewed without listing all of its featured chefs: Sam Arnold & Holly Kinney Lidia Bastianich Rick Bayless Rafih Benjelloun Carol Bloomstrom Margarita Carrillo de Salinas Kaspar Donier Tom Douglas Todd English Susan Feniger & Marysue Milliken Gale Grand Rick Tramonto Chris Hastings Karen Hilliard Louise Lamensdorf Jenifer Lang Edward Lee Benjamin McCallum Sven-Erik Mill Walter Potenza Norma Pouillon Christopher Prosperi Yono Purnomo Charles Ramseyer Miguel Ravago John Shields Shelly Sikora Allen Susser Eurgnia Theodosopoulos Terry Thompson-Anderson Charlie Trotter Julia Usher And a review which featured recipes from each of these chefs would be too long to be a mere review.
