Synopsis

Canada’s favourite culinary pair creates a one-of-a-kind cookbook that will be everyone’s go-to food and winematching guide

Every great dish has a centre of gravity, a flavour or essence that pulls together other ingredients into a coherent and compelling whole. Indian curry spices, fiery Thai chilis, lemony citrus, smoky barbecue rubs―these are all flavours that we adore and that get our taste buds asking for more. Flavour is, quite simply, what makes us passionate about food and drink. At last, here is a cookbook that focuses on this fundamental concept.

Organized around eleven distinctive tastes, from spicy to tart to bitter and beyond, The Flavour Principle features more than thirty gorgeous menus with complementary―and sometimes surprising―beverage pairings. Covering flavours from all over the world, this cookbookis a journey around the globe. Modern and eclectic in approach, The Flavour Principle has broad appeal to food and wine lovers. Like A Matter of Taste before it, The Flavour Principle sets a new standard in food-and-beverage pairing cookbooks.

BEPPI CROSARIOL has been The Globe and Mail’s wine and spirits columnist for twelve years.

Review:

A good chef will often create from a chart of flavor principles that are attached to their roots. Beppi and Lucy’s inspiring work brilliantly displays this doctrine; while remaining accessible to the home cook. (Daniel Boulud, Chef/Owner, The Dinex Group)
