Welcome to Litsy!

Always fun when a book on your wishlist pops up in your neighborhood Little Free Library! I feel like this will come in handy in those (many) moments when I don‘t really need a recipe but could use a little inspiration re: using up something in my fridge/garden/pantry.

The Flavor Bible (see my previous post) without its dust jacket on. Looks yummy 🤤!

Some friends and I are doing this thing on Facebook where we recommend books we love. I chose this one today because it's one of the best kitchen reference books I've ever seen. If you have an ingredient and you don't know what flavors compliment it, just look it up here. They will give you a list of flavors that compliment and enhance the flavor of your ingredient. I am absolutely evangelical about this one

@whippoorwill815 I thanked you by email, but forgot to post here. Lots of yummy flavors in this box! You have also inspired me with your blank recipe book. Planning to do something with one fir my neice at Christmas.

#GetMovin #Levels

There are levels to being a confident cook, starting with being able to follow a recipe & have it turn out well. The next level is adapting recipes to make them work for your needs or taste even better. The highest level is having the confidence to create your own recipes. Experience & trial & error are what gets you there, but these books on flavor combinations really helped take my confidence in cooking to the next level.🥄📚

An awesome reference for the FoodNetwork amateur to the seasoned chef. The introductory pages on how taste buds work serve as a solid foundation for the flavor pairings. This is an essential book for anyone who likes to play in the kitchen!
