Leisureguy's Cooking Compendium is not a collection of recipes but rather a book about cooking: tools, ideas, techniques, foods, equipment, nutrition, and the like. In effect, it's "Cooking Deconstructed," with the building blocks of cooking treated separately---defined and discussed, so that the cook can recombine them to create new recipes and his or her own cooking style. Some recipes are included; they are not "amaze your friends" creations but tasty daily cooking. The book is aimed at the novice or experienced cook who wants to build his or her own kitchen repertoire.
