### ⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    More an Art Book than a Cook Book
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 26, 2018*

It’s more an “art” book than a cook book in my opinion. You’ll find a few famous names with beautiful photos but what may worth in this book are the preparations, which are not necessarily easy or fast (some takes weeks). For example, Blumental’s recipe is something not feasible in a home kitchen but may serve to understand why some restaurants will charge you many hundreds of dollars for a single night. If you are looking for recipes and more “hands-on” knowledge “Umami - Unlocking the Secrets of the Fifth Taste” seems to be a more interesting book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Even if you don't cook Japanese food, this book is worth having and learning from
  

*by P***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 21, 2018*

Learn how to use umami in all your cooking -- not just Japanese!
