3.0 out of 5 stars
Background info good, ingredients....??,
By Raymond Chan (Willowdale, on canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Kitchen Conversations: Robust Recipes and Lessons in Flavor from One of America's Most Innovative Chefs (Paperback)
For those who want to know why and how a dish tastes good, balanced, etc. there are snippets of information scattered about the book. This is one of the rare books that EXPLAINS the WHYS instead of showing you just the HOWS. The wine matching sections were particularly informative. Unfortunately a lot of recipes use ingredients which a common home kitchen probably won't have and may have trouble procuring. Read this book for the information but not for the recipes.

how to make meals simple and delicious.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Kitchen Conversations: Robust Recipes and Lessons in Flavor from One of America's Most Innovative Chefs (Paperback)
i saw the quilt/chef show at the oakland art museum, and knew that i had to buy joyce goldstein's book. i love to cook, but can never determine how to just rustle something together with products that i bring home. her book really puts all those things together. she explains how we taste, and, therefore combining ingredients to make it delicious in a very simple way. the section on wine selection will appeal to everyone. if one decides to make a dish, it will explain how to put things together so that the food will taste good.
