Synopses & Reviews
Synopsis:
CHOCOLATE: Arguably the world's favorite thing to eat, the divine bean has in the last twenty years or so been elevated to a culinary stature far above that of our childhood Hershey bars (not that those don't have their charm). This book celebrates the astonishing diversity of chocolate, giving it the same luxury treatment previously afforded wine, scotch, and coffee. We're talking production details, cultural lore, flavor families, tasting notes, gorgeous photos, all quite fitting for this food of the gods.
CONCURRENT PUB: Look for Maricel Presilla's major work on Latin American cooking from Scribner's this Fall. Tremendous tie-in opportunity, obviously. Details to come.
LATIN FLAVORS: The author is a buddy of Doug Rodriguez, and this book ties in quite neatly to the Latin Fusion trend.
CHEFS: In case you haven't noticed, top chefs adore (yes, adore) working with chocolate, and its compatibility with a smashingly good vintage port (say, the 1994 Broadbent or the 1995 Ferreira) is not lost on the world of wine aficionados.
