But the pictures! "If I could only watch someone do it!"... says the beginner. "I would like to see how that is done!"... confides the seasoned veteran of many an oven battle ... Well, here they are... hundreds of the finest photographs you ever saw, created by experts in their field.., beautifully reproduced and showing you just what you wanted to see... for you to repeat in your own kitchen!... Not hard, is it?...
