The Art & Science of Foodpairing: 10,000 flavour matches that will transform the way you eat

This is not a recipe book at all, it's to expand your repertoire and give you the opportunity to explore and play around with different food pairings. More suited for a professional chef, or someone really into their cooking.

Insanely informative, i originally bought this to develop cocktail recipes - i moved onto dinner instead :)

Bought this as a gift for a friend who is a Chef, he was really pleased with it.

Amazing book. And definitely not a cook book. This is the science of food pairing and an amazing technical book on what goes with what in regards to flavours and spices.

Really well laid out! The graphics are amazing and easy to understand

Covers all the bases

Really boring, not much practical use, loads of food suggested is not very popular like kiwi. How to put kiwi to great use.... I don't even like kiwi.

This is a brilliantly researched, deep and beautifully presented book. The science behind this book is fascinating and the way the authors break it down, explain and diagram it all is phenomenal. Each of the major ingredients is given a huge number of combination choices, explaining which flavour components are complementing which. That said, this book is called "The ART and Science". For me, the 'art' would help showcase the science -- that is, recipes! Here, the recipes are a couple of sentences without any substance...but they all sound *fascinating*: black tea and guava macarons, banana cake with dulce de leche gelato, black garlic gelato with strawberry! I learn through doing and would have loved this book to have helped teach the science that's so beautifully presented here. As it stands, it's a book absolutely worthy of professional chefs looking to put their own twist on recipes but even for pretty competent home cooks, it will whet your appetite at the potential for more innovative pairings and leave you wanting more.

Such informative book. I am a chef, and I use this whenever I need to come up with a new dish for my new menu

Very fast, well packaged, awesome thank you.

Explains the fundamentals of how flavors combine. It does provide quite a few combinations of ingredients that might surprise you. Quite nice to navigate in comparison to most cooking books.

Solo llegó abollado de una esquina del libro

So useful. Highly reccomend. Especially in combination with the flavor bible. Oh and easy to reference too!
