## Customer Reviews

### ⭐ 1.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Not for the home cook
  

*by R***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 February 2010*

The El Bulli restaurant is the stuff of legend, but this book doesn't make its magic more accessible. It is more for food scientists than cooks, and there's no point coming to it in the hope of recipe ideas, but it will tell you why meat goes brown or what Mannitol is. I can't imagine who it's aimed at. The blurb says that the book has suggestions for use of the various things that are defined, but the suggestion is as likely to be to use it as a preservative in canned food, or "in neutraceutical foodstuffs" (entry for "flavonoids", which have "no known use" in restaurants). I daresay someone will have a use for this book, but I can't think who exactly.

    A waste of Money buy Larrousse
  

*by R***M on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 September 2010*

Ferran Adria is a genius.  Herve This has written about and lead a movement that has invigorated food preparation.  Harold McGee educates and makes everybody who cooks think.  I was really hoping that this would be the encylopedia that distilled all that is good in the ideas and works of these (and many other) men.  I'm sorry, but it just doesn't.  It is a thin and weakly compiled i-spy book of ingredients and techniques.  Save your money for "On Food & Cooking".

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    very informative
  

*by Y***! on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 19 March 2010*

This book isn't packed with photo's of pretty dishes but is very informative and gives a great insight into everything you need to know about modern gastronomy
