This book will allow you to eat your words... literally.
There is an indelible connection between food and language, and therefore between food and people. We are social beings, made to interconnect, interact, share share and converse.
we achive this through language and through food or, more specifically, through eating.
According to the authors the words used to describe food contain and evoke meaning. They encapsulate emotion and instil feeling. they are so much more than the letters that form them, just as an exquisitly prepared dish is so much more than just our sense of taste.
Featuring over 200 recipes catring for any occasion, this is a cookbook with a difference.
one word captures the essence of each chapter demonstrating the inherent meaning and evocation of that word. The recipes are easy to replicate, simple to make and, of corse, irresistably edible. and because people eat with their eyes, there is a strong focus on the presentation and styling of each dish, supported by mouth-watering full-colour photography.
