Add to basketNeuware - Weil nichts komplexe Zusammenhänge besser veranschaulicht als eine informative Grafik, kommt auch die Küchenliteratur nicht ohne aus. Ob populäres Kochbuch, hauswirtschaftlicher Ratgeber oder ernährungswissenschaftliche Fachlektüre, erst erklärende Abbildungen machen das Genre leicht verdaulich - und manchmal sogar sehr vergnüglich. Dieser Band zeigt die besten und originellsten Infografiken zum Essen, Trinken und Kochen und beantwortet wie ein illustriertes Schotts Sammelsurium auf witzige Weise so ziemlich jede Frage, die man sich je zu Essen und Trinken gestellt haben mag, und viele, auf die man nie gekommen wäre. Was hier nicht drinsteht, ist zum Verzehr auch nicht geeignet. Ein paar Kostproben: Sie wollten schon immer mal wissen, wie Maori kochen und wie man Fugu zubereitet, ohne dabei den Löffel abzugeben Wie viele Käsesorten es gibt und wo sie herkommen Was sich so alles mit Wassermelonen anstellen lässt Wo bei einem Fisch vorne ist Aus welchen Dingen man Speiseöl machen kann Wie man Grillkönig wird Was Ihr Sandwich denkt Wie eine Mikrowelle tickt und was in Ihrem Kühlschrank vorgeht Wann ein Martini wirklich staubtrocken ist Vom altägyptischen Fladenbrot bis zur Molekularküche, von der home made Pizza bis zur Sternekocherei, Food & Drink Infographics behandelt alles mit ironischer Leichtigkeit und bleibt auf seiner bunten und geistreichen Bilderreise durch die Welt der Nahrungsmittel und Gastronomie keine Antwort schuldig. Es gibt Infografiken zu sämtlichen Lebensmittelgruppen, Rezepte galore und jede Menge praktische Tipps für experimentierfreudige Genussmenschen, Küchenhobbyisten und Gourmets. Bon appetit!

Amid our ever-growing consumption of data visualization, nothing makes for tastier morsels than the fine art of food and dining. Ushering the cookbook into the future, this volume gathers together the best infographics of all things eating, drinking, and cuisine, from measurement conversion charts and recipes for cookies and cocktails to stress-free party planning.
A must-have for every 21st-century foodie, this is gastro-guidance at its most visually appealing as much as expert. Want to master sashimi? Know the secret to perfectly grilled steak? Wow guests with your own dry martini? Food & Drink Infographics has all the answers and more, using the best culinary graphics to answer kitchen conundrums in lively, simple, and memorable form.
You’ll find infographics on all the food groups, from grains and pulses to fruit and vegetables, to fish, meat, and poultry. Recipe ideas include soups, sandwiches, snacks, sweet treats, and just-right dressings. Other sections cover flavor pairings, baking, cooking tools and techniques, and alcohols, coffee, and tea.
The book opens with a foreword by cooking author Michael Ruhlman, followed by a historic survey of food imagery examining how and where pictures have been used to enjoy, prepare, and serve food and drink, from Egyptian tomb paintings showing flatbread being made to 19th-century classics such as Mrs Beeton’s Book of Household Management. Slick, smart, and packed full of perfect nuggets of advice, Food & Drink Infographics rounds up a delightful visual exploration of food and dining as much as an indispensable collection of everyday tips, techniques, and temptations.
