Review: Great resource if you don't mind how American it is - It is very much an American book and it is noticable when you read it... however, as it is not a recipe book you do not face the usual problem of converting American measurements and temperatures into something a bit more UK friendly. I would encourage you to give this book a try even if an American bias is normally a bit annoying for you. This book offers combinations of more than 2 ingredients, explain how to create winning flavour combinations yourself and provide inspiration in the form of quotes from food writers or cooks. It reminds me of The Flavour Thesaurus, which is certainly a better known book where I am, but I find it to be far more educational and entertaining. It has definitely helped me become a more confident cook.
Review: Inspires one to be more creative with food - What was unexpected for me with this book, is that I would go to my fridge, find a few ingredients I have to work with, so off I go to the Flavour book to find out what would compliment my ingredients. By doing this and seeing their suggested meals for using with ingredients, I have been inspired to try creating new dishes I wouldn't have done before. Love this book.
