Thank you for looking! This is a cookbook that makes it easy to cook classic dishes. It includes explanations of tools and terms, which is helpful when looking at other recipes. It's full of photos and has lots of tips, Highly recommended! It's hardly been used, and there are no major stains or tears, but there is some slight rippling at the top and bottom. Please check the photos. If it's difficult to see, I'll retake them, so Please feel free to let me know in the comments! It will be shipped anonymously, so please rest assured. :)
