For those in the food trade or those who are learning the food trade, Culinary Math has a lot to offer. It is a refresher on on conversions, costing, metric, and much more. This book focuses on they types of math needed to build a standard recipe, convert a recipe, work out total costs and more. As much a workbook as a math text, the exercises are useful in setting these mathematical principles into your mind and is a good preparatory for on line certification in cost control. For those people who have been out of school for awhile and those who are weak in math, this book will be a tremendous help.

This is a must have for anyone in the food preparation business. I am a baker and wanted it for helping me to properly scale my cake formulas to the number of servings and baking pans. However, the information for what I need was very limited, but I was able to share the information with a friend who was in the catering business to help monitor their food cost. It will be priceless when you learn the math. The writer had simple ways for you to remember the equations for the calculations.

Good supplement to any cooking course

Bought this for my son who is a chef. He requested it and as far I know he had used it. My rating is what I suspect he would have given it. He asked for this specific book so he must have known of it.

This was a required textbook for my degree program in Culinary Arts. Good book for culinary math. Concepts and problems were explained well.

Our oldest is planning to head to culinary school in a few years, and we homeschool currently. Culinary Math is a great addition to our high school curriculum. The concepts are complete and well-laid out, and a great option for anyone who wants math, but needs it presented in concrete, real-life applications.

This book was a really big help to me when I was in Culinary School, I would recommend it highly.
