5.0 out of 5 stars Why we want to be better cooks AND how to do that, April 26, 2017
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat: Mastering the Elements of Good Cooking (Kindle Edition)
This is a book you'll want to sit down and read....not peruse...but read straight through. Not only are the forward and introduction inspiring, but Part One on SALT had me totally hooked. I knew that salt was important in cooking, but now I understand so much more about what it does to make food taste delicious.

So much more than a collection of recipes, it gets to the heart of cooking. Why we want to be better cooks AND how to do that. I love the fold out on p. 193 "what should I cook" that advises to go back and read the book through before you practice...a brilliant observation that the book is about "the journey, not the destination" as are so many things we pursue and experience.

Samin is a wonderful storyteller and Wendy's illustrations add another layer to this important book. You'll keep this book on your bedside table first...then move it to your kitchen as a reference you'll use for years to come. Don't let this one get away!
