Essential Spanish Techniques

The dozen techniques that make a hundred dishes possible. Essential Spanish Techniques is the foundations book in the Spanish Cookbook series — a working handbook of sofrito, frying in olive oil, paella-pan rice, garlic in three forms, and the long Spanish stew. Each technique is taught patiently and then put to work in a benchmark recipe you can return to forever. Written for cooks who want to understand Spanish food, not just follow it.
