Why read it?
1 author picked Taste as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
No book can ever tell you, definitively, what tastes good. This one can tell you why certain things taste good to you, which is a much more interesting subject to dive into.
I found it fascinating to learn just how much all the other senses are involved when it comes to eating and drinking, it really is the most sensory-stimulating activity in our lives. Ok, perhaps the second most.
This book also goes into a subject that's close to my heart: learning to become a better taster. So many people seem to think your skill at this is fixed…
From Anthony's list on cocktail-loving flavour fans.
