Book Review of The Flavor Bible: The Essential Guide to Culinary Creativity, Based on the Wisdom of America's Most Imaginative Chefs

NewRuth avatar reviewed on


The more I use this book, the more I love it. Who knew lists of flavors that go with various ingredients would be so much fun?

This book helps me make leftovers not so leftover feeling. What flavors go with those leftover beets? Orange & tarragon? OK, "new" beet dish. It helps me figure out how to use that cabbage that looked so good in the store but I didn't have a recipe in mind for. I just matched a few flavors from the lists.

If you want some direction in inventing your own recipes, this book will help.
