Cooking can be simple with the right teaching tool; and where better to find one than through an author who began cooking at age four in her grandmother's Santa Cruz restaurant, then opened her own Greek restaurant followed by a catering service. These professional experiences resulted in Absolute Beginner's Guide To Cooking, a "user friendly" instructional resource which covers all the basics; from stocking a kitchen with tools and basic pantry ingredients to learning about cheeses, herbs, cooking terms and meal preparation times. Charts, recipes, and shopping lists abound.
