Rated 4 out of 5 by from Love Bill Briwa! The professor is easy to understand and always throws in a few extra tricks of the trade or information so I learn something new almost every session. I do miss having access to the recipes as it is hard to replicate a dish without that. His other courses had a course book with the recipes. Hope you'll add just the recipes -- don't need a transcript of the session.
