Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat

Right from the cover and illustrations to the passionate elaboration of each topic covered in this book, both my husband and I loved it. He is an aspiring chef and this was a wonderful gift for him.

Good book

Book Content and paper quality both are very good.

The book is great. And the illustrations are so lovely! Watch the show as well. It's the perfect way to cook. The science of cooking well for anyone that cares about food.

Beautiful beautiful informative.. illustrations and explanations very beautifully done..great purchase

Love the book. The content is fabulous, however I find the paper and printing a bit cheap. Could have been a thicker paper and a better print., for the price. However it is a book worth keeping.

The lot.

Had placed an order for this as a gift but the book was delivered in an extremely poor condition. The books binding is off and it has creases on all edges

This is definitely a 5-star book for me. The way everything is written and explained in the book is simply outstanding. The book takes a very scientific approach to cooking and breaks down the elements of good cooking into four simple categories - Salt, Fat, Acid, and Heat. She then goes on to explain each element in detail and how they work together to create the perfect dish. What I particularly loved about the book was the way the author uses stories, anecdotes, and personal experiences to illustrate some points. The book is filled with beautiful illustrations, diagrams, and photographs that make it easy to follow along and understand the concepts she is explaining. Another great thing about the book is that it is not just a recipe book. It's more like a cooking guide that teaches you the principles of good cooking. In conclusion, I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves cooking or wants to improve their cooking skills. It's a beautifully written and illustrated book that will inspire you to become a better cook and to have more fun in the kitchen.

A fantastic book for cooks who want to understand the "chemistry" of combining ingredients for delicious meals. The unexpected bonus was all the beautiful watercolour paintings of ingredients and the food: so refreshingly different from the stock standard food photographs in other cookbooks.

Very good book. A depth presentation of the themes.

Samin Nosrat's Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat series on Netflix brought together four vital elements of good food and in turn good cooking. We take flavour for granted, forget that fat ADDS flavour, acid can help in cooking and in providing taste and heat is a great way of creating flavour too. Since watching this series, I've learned how to combine flavour in ways not thought possible by me, and I particularly love the Buttermilk Chicken!

Certainly! "Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat: The Four Elements of Good Cooking" is a culinary masterpiece that transcends the boundaries of traditional cookbooks. Samin Nosrat's approach to explaining the fundamental elements of good cooking is both enlightening and accessible. The delivery of the book was prompt and well-handled.

The book's layout is user-friendly, with vibrant illustrations that complement the text. The inclusion of personal anecdotes adds a delightful touch, making the reader feel like they are on a culinary journey with the author. What sets this book apart is its emphasis on the science behind cooking. Nosrat breaks down complex concepts into easily digestible information, empowering even novice cooks to understand and experiment in the kitchen. Overall, the delivery experience and the content of "Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat" exceeded my expectations. Whether you're a seasoned chef or a kitchen novice, this book is a must-have, and the seamless delivery process ensures that you can embark on your culinary adventure without a hitch.
