I love flipping through this tome and finding all kinds of fascinating information about all things culinary - from methods of cooking to flavours to the history of the various foods we eat

Miss_Kim I have this one! I used it a lot when I used to write food and restaurant reviews! 8y

A little geeky but lots of great information that has helped me to cook better. Technical insight but also fun insights on food and cooking through time plus practical know-how.
