Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I, Deaf Chef, created this cookbook to share my recipes that I have learned over my 25 years in the hospitality industry. What I have learned along the way is that "Fresh" ingredients are the best way to flavor foods. I have been trained by many great Chefs at different properties and I am proud to say that they have taught me well. In this cookbook, you will find many recipes that will give you great flavors in any dishes without any added preservatives and low in sodium. In order to lower the sodium intake, I believe that Sea salt is the best way over Kosher salt or Table salt (iodine) I can teach you how to use natural ingredients that our nature gives us to create a great meal with minimum amount of sodium. During my years in the culinary arts industry, I have gained a vast amount of experience that have taught me how to make fabulous meals from scratch using the freshest ingredients. In this cookbook, you will find all sauces, salad dressings, soups, starch, vegetables, and marinades all derive from fresh nature grown ingredients. All recipes are flexible and can be changed to your preference or substituted due to allergies. This cookbook will be categorized by chapters of food items separately such as; Appetizers, Soups, Salads & Dressings, Sauces, Beef, Poultry, Duck, Pork, Lambs, Veal, Fish, Vegetables, Vegetarian dishes, Starches, Pasta and Casserole dishes. The reason for this is that you will have the flexibility to choose what you want to eat that particular day and choose your favorite pairings to the dish you wish to create to impress your families or friends. Along the way of learning from great Chefs, I have learned that the best way to getting great flavors to foods is to marinate foods overnight. This will allow the herbs to marry into the food. The best way is to plan ahead the day before. In order to accomplish that you have to choose what you want to eat and follow what the recipes says to do. If you happen to forget to plan ahead or you are in a rush, you can always do the dish you want to do, all you have to do is marinate the food items at least 4-8 hours before starting the cooking process. I am confident that I will please you with all my recipes that I have in this cookbook. I am hoping that you will enjoy all the fabulous meal that you will cook for your friends and families and they will go home with a happy stomach. Again, I would like to thank you all for buying my cookbook and I wish you all an "Happy Cookin!!" Sincerely, "Deaf Chef" Paul Hansen
