It takes a lot
of people to create a cookbook: The writers, the recipe testers,
the editor, the copy editor, the production manager, and the designer
to name a few. And even though we all look at every word, we sometimes
miss something. But in the end if something's wrong we take the
blame - our names are on the book. It's unfortunate and we apologize
for any mistakes that made it through.
Uncorrected
proofs (called galleys) are sent to the media before the book is
published. These galleys have many errors that get fixed before
the book is put on sale. Sometimes these uncorrected proofs find
their way into circulation via used book stores and ebay. The best
way to make sure you have a correct recipe is to have an official
copy of the published book.
