The Modern Spice Rack is a comprehensive guide to the most common
spices in our cupboards, and how to best make use of them everyday.
Spices have, historically, been a tricky ingredient. They're prevalent
in everyone's kitchens, but too often are underused, stored badly and
kept years beyond their 'best before date'. There's the perceived
alchemy of making a curry from scratch and the stringent marrying of
certain spices to specific cuisines. This cookbook encourages liberal,
creative and everyday use - a well-timed pinch to elevate a dish, with a
focus on great taste rather than being tethered to tradition. With
colourful introductions give context to lesser-known spices and provide
new insights into more familiar varieties, and accompanying recipes that
are modern, global and taste-led, The Modern Spice Rack will transform
standard groceries into something special.
