Product Description
Great cooking goes beyond following a recipe--it's knowing how to season ingredients to coax the greatest possible flavor from them. Drawing on dozens of leading chefs' combined experience in top restaurants across the country, Karen Page and Andrew Dornenburg present the definitive guide to creating "deliciousness" in any dish. Thousands of ingredient entries, organized alphabetically and cross-referenced, provide a treasure trove of spectacular flavor combinations. Readers will learn to work more intuitively and effectively with ingredients; experiment with temperature and texture; excite the nose and palate with herbs, spices, and other seasonings; and balance the sensual, emotional, and spiritual elements of an extraordinary meal.
Seasoned with tips, anecdotes, and signature dishes from America's most imaginative chefs, THE FLAVOR BIBLE
is an essential reference for every kitchen.
Customer reviews
Extremely Disappointed
by .. Connie Thomas (Cold, cold Minnesota)
I know I would have enjoyed this book(s) if I had ever gotten them. 1 look books never sent me anything: not my books, not an answer to my e-mails(plural), but of course they billed my credit card the day I sent the order. That was 24 Nov. and it is now Dec.27, 2008. My review: I truely liked the book when I took it out of my local library. It was very interesting and had a lot of great ideas in pairing spices and herbs with various foods It wasn't a cookbook but rather a jumping off spot for cooking.
Spice Reference
by .. Sally (Pembroke Pines, FL)
This heavy, almost 400-page tome is a great idea for someone who is already a good cook, but who would like to become a gourmet. It's divided into three sections: Learning the Language of Food, Communicating Via the Language of Food, and The Charts, which focuses on the matchmaking of flavors. It's quite detailed. Why there's ten pages on cheese! It's a culinary reference book for the chef at heart.
as a gift
by .. M. Cameron ()
I gave this book to my mother as a gift. She reports that she just loves it. It does not have any recipes, but all the flavor suggestions are great. They tried bacon and herbs on salmon as directed and loved the flavor.
THE FLAVOR BIBLE - THE BIBLE OF ALL KITCHENS!
by .. J. Hammer (Madison, WI USA)
GET THIS BOOK! I LOVE THIS BOOK! This is the best book I have seen yet! As a personal chef wanna-be, a food network junkie and a lover of food, this will help me to make food taste GREAT! I never know what goes with what and this helps! This goes by alphabetical order so this is an excellent reference book for the most popular room in your house: the kitchen! I can't wait to start using it!
Gift for a cook
by .. M. Massung (Arizona)
I bought this book as a gift for someone that cooks. With its detail on mixing ingredients for different flavors I feel that it will be a great gift.
