There are instructions, but this isn't a manual. Rather, it's an interesting entry point for, say, the food-trending college graduate or the colleague who zaps Lean Cuisine at lunch while eyeing your leftover asparagus risotto—or even seasoned cooks who'd like to clear their counters of gadgets and re-enter a life where the salad is tossed by hand (better to feel the vinaigrette distribution), the biscuits are made with homemade baking powder (beyond easy) and all the mayonnaises are above average. In Alice's world, the Slow Food revolution begins at home.

In the Green Kitchen: Techniques to Learn by Heart
A mother of the sustainable food movement, Waters offers a brief and very readable how-to for creating a green kitchen and cooking from it. You'll find inspiration from her "Green Kitchen Manifesto" which includes things such as "cooking and shopping for food brings rhythm and meaning to our lives" and "setting the table and eating together teaches essential values to our children." The author insists, and I agree, that you need only a basic list of ingredients, a few good techniques, and handful of well-made equipment to enjoy cooking and eating the food you create. She enlists the help of several great chefs to walk the reader through a number of techniques, each accompanied by a few recipes. This book will be quite basic to the experienced cook, but will provide critical knowledge in an easy-to-read format for beginners. And experienced in the kitchen though I may be, I still found good reminders and encouragement in these pages.
