Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
KitchenCUE is a DVD cooking course that teaches you how to cook, rather than how to make a recipe, and this second volume of the instructional DVD series--Soups and Stocks--will help you to easily make homemade stocks and use them to make quick, delicious soups for any meal. The KitchenCUE DVDs teach you how to cook using a powerful, interactive, educational methodology. A distinctly different approach from other recipe based programming; you gain skills that you will use again and again after only the first use. It provides you freedom from the confines of recipes and instills confidence because you better understand how and why things work. A professional culinary instructor and accomplished chef teaches you the secrets to building an innovative and comprehensive approach to cooking, and the instruction incorporates all three learning methods--visual, audio, and kinesthetic--so you better understand and retain the information. This package includes the DVD, 28-page booklet with technique recipes, quick reference guide, common conversions, abbreviations and equivalents and glossary.
Product Description
KitchenCUE is everything you didn’t know about cooking. Finally, a product that does more than simply show me how to make a recipe. You know, great cooks are made, not born. Most people, who aren’t good cooks, aren’t good cooks because they’ve never been taught the insights of cooking. KitchenCUE changes all that by providing an interactive way in understanding how and why things work. Just imagine having your own personal chef show you how to properly use your knife, choose the right herb or spice, use regional ingredients to craft international cuisine, select the right wine to accent flavors, step-by-step cooking techniques, and so much more. As you cook side-by-side in real time you see, do and learn proven chef-techniques. A distinctly different approach to other television and recipe-based programming; KitchenCUE works with you, at your pace, teaching you the easily repeatable steps of the technique. With each volume, you’ll make your recipe books better, enjoy your kitchens more, and once again add variety to your meal routine. In this volume, culinary educator and professional chef Shellie Kark, guides viewers through the processes of Soups and Stocks by revealing their common steps. Then, those steps are reinforced through recipes written to solidify the technique. Tables of ingredients guide you through hundreds of meal options allowing you to cook what you want according to your taste and preference—the way you like it? Learn how to substitute ingredients successfully, set up a cooking station, pick the right equipment, pairing the right food & wine, salting and seasoning tricks, knife sharpening training, and other culinary insights. Includes DVD, 28 page booklet with technique-based recipes, quick reference guide, common conversions, abbreviations and equivalents and an ever so useful glossary. Enrich your life, by becoming a better and more confident cook.

soups and sauces,

This review is from: KitchenCue Instructional DVD, Volume 2, Soups and Stocks (Kitchen)
I have the first two KitchenCue DVD's and I LOVE them. I understand a 3rd one is out very soon. The amazing thing about these instructional DVD's is that Chef Shellie is not the least bit pretentious, is easy to understand and so generous with her knowledge. Quite often you listen to Chef's and they give partial information, you attempt what they have done to complete failure. Not so with Chef Shellie, she really teaches you skills to keep forever and makes you a success. Please try these. You will love them too.

Chnaged me from a bumbling bachelor into a creative cook!,
This review is from: KitchenCue Instructional DVD, Volume 2, Soups and Stocks (Kitchen)
BEFORE: I was an expert at melting cheese on things in the microwave so I was someone who could 'prepare food', but not really cook. Probably as a result, I received these videos as a gift from someone tired of eating with me.
NOW: I understand what it means to prepare and cook things in different ways (i.e. dice, vs slice, bake vs roast) and WHY. With my easily acquired new skills, I can taste things as I cook and I've somehow MAGICALLY developed the ability to diagnose and correct as I go! No more adding hot sauce or cheese to make up for my boring/bland food. I'm really cooking thanks to these videos!

Something for Everyone!,
By Diane (Denver) - See all my reviews
This review is from: KitchenCue Instructional DVD, Volume 2, Soups and Stocks (Kitchen)
I purchased the first DVD--and came back for a second-helping. These are must-have training tools for both novice and experienced cooks. Take the opportunity to learn from one of the most knowledgable, fun, inspirational instructors in the industry. As with Sautes and Pan Sauces, you will get the technique down easily as she walks you through the steps. For me it was the perfect review. Once again she has packed this DVD with all kinds of useful information in an easy-to-use format that will give you the confidence to cook without recipes or give you new inspiration on combining ingredients and spices for pallate pleasing results. A great value!"
