Anyone has this? Kinda looks like a conversation piece with pretty pictures, I'm wondering how much actual insight it gives, compared to other books regarding pizza (which are several hundred times cheaper btw). Obviosuly ignoring the history parta

Also, if you have a google drive link to a pdf, much appreciated

>> No.17258618

~$400
Lol fuck that.
It can’t possibly contain arcane knowledge that will shift the paradigm of pizza as we know it.
If the writers had such knowledge, they wouldn’t put it in a book. They’d open a consulting service.

Other than having a nifty shelf piece that will make people think you have a shitton of disposable income when they look it up on Amazon, there’s no way it has anything to offer which would make it a worthwhile purchase.

their original cookbook set was cool, novel, and had enough breadth to maybe warrant its novelty price

More likely a kid buys it and moves, dies, or goes to college, and the boomer mother sells it at a garage sale without his consent.

Considering I dropped a grand+ for a polyscience sous vide professional and more importantly the time it takes to yield a sous vide dish I consider acceptable, the 600 odd dollars is very much worth it.
600 bucks is chump change compared to the ingredient and time costs for this type and level of cooking.

I bought it when MC first came out. At the time there weren’t really any consumer devices and the Polyscience is basically a full blown small scale commercial unit. It can push A LOT of water and I swear it’s rated for like over 1kW. Results are good but I honestly didn’t use it much because it was a bit of a hassle. I own an Annova Precision Oven and their pro immersion circulator with matching tub now and I cook sous vide much more often. I cook mostly protein, I did like 20 lbs of 37 hour chuck in the last 3 weeks.
