THE SPICE COMPANION
A Guide to the World of Spices
A sumptuous and definitive spice guide by the country’s most sought-after expert, with hundreds of fresh ideas and tips for using pantry spices, 102 never- before-published recipes for spice blends, gorgeous photography, and breathtaking botanical illustrations.
After training at the Institut Paul Bocuse in Lyon, France, Lior Lev Sercarz gained culinary experience at several top-tier restaurants, including serving as the sous chef at Daniel for five years, before founding La Boîte, a spice shop in New York City. Since 2006, Lior has established himself as the go-to source for fresh and unusual spices as well as small-batch custom blends for renowned chefs in New York City and around the world, including Eric Ripert at Le Bernadin.
The Spice Companion communicates Lior’s expertise in a way that will inspire readers to try bold new flavor combinations. For each of the 102 accessible spices, Lior provides the history and origin, information on where to buy and how to store it, five different pairings, three quick suggestions for use (such as adding cardamom to chicken broth), and a unique spice blend recipe and how to use it. Photographs and detailed color illustrations of each spice in different states (whole, crushed, etc.) make this the most desirable spice book on the market.
