Ever wondered why one flavour works with another? Or lacked inspiration for what to do with a bundle of beetroot? The Flavour Thesaurus is the first book to examine what goes with what, pair by pair. The book is divided into flavour themes including Meaty, Cheesy, Woodland and Floral Fruity. Within these sections it follows the form of Roget's Thesaurus, listing 99 popular ingredients alphabetically, and for each one suggesting flavour matchings that range from the classic to the bizarre. You can expect to find traditional pairings such as pork & apple, lamb & apricot, and cucumber & dill; contemporary favourites like chocolate & chilli, and goat's cheese & beetroot; and interesting but unlikely-sounding couples including black pudding & chocolate, lemon & beef, blueberry & mushroom, and watermelon & oyster. There are nearly a thousand entries in all, with 200 recipes and suggestions embedded in the text. Beautifully packaged, The Flavour Thesaurus is not only a highly useful, and covetable, reference book for cooking - it might keep you up at night reading.

 Lovely Book for Food lovers

Top 10 Books Reviewer

This is a lovely book for anyone who enjoys cooking... or eating. It has an entry for just about every food combination you could possibly think of - from the familiar garlic and basil to the decidedly weird, chocolate and cauliflower. Niki Segnit's descriptions of flavour combinations are wonderful. I particularly like the description of beetroot and watercress.... "Earth and iron. Like a Zola novel with a happy ending. The love of rustic rosy-cheeked beetroot for outspoken watercress is requited" - brilliant!!

The book itself is a lovely thing too. The size of a 'normal' hardback rather than larger cookery type hardbacks. It has very pretty pink-edged pages
