Thousands of ingredient entries, organized alphabetically and cross-referenced, provide a treasure trove of spectacular flavor combinations.

 Extremely Disappointed December 27, 2008

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.
