Krátky popis
A compact edition of this stylishly illustrated compendium of over
sixty spices, brilliantly designed by the bestselling author of
Herbarium.Spices have played an intrinsic part in the human story,
running through history, geography, anthropology, politics,
religion, culture, art and design. From alligator pepper seeds
which, in the Yoruba culture, are given to newborn babies to taste
a few minutes after birth, to charoli seeds, which are used in
traditional Indian sweets eaten during the festival of Holi, and
caraway seeds, which were added to medieval love potions, each
spice has its own significance in the lives of the people who use
it. The story of spice is really the stories of human
relationships, from growers and traders to cooks and explorers, all
starting with a tiny seed.The Grammar of Spice is one of the
world’s missing books. It will change the way we understand spices
and the role they play in defining not only our food but also our
place in the world. The essence of each spice is explored in a
brief history peppered with interesting anecdotes and tips, and
accompanied by reproductions of surface decoration from Owen
Jones’s original book, The Grammar of Ornament. The book is
beautiful to look at and hold, packed with well-researched
material, and will change the way a generation appreciates the
incredible world of flavours and tastes that spices open up to us.
