THE ART OF FLAVOR Practices and Principles for Creating Delicious Food

by | Read by John Lescault

Contemporary Culture • 4.75 hrs. • Unabridged • © 2017

Narrator John Lescault's voice is well matched to the task at hand as Daniel Patterson, a Michelin chef and restaurateur, Mandy Aftel, a renowned perfumer, take a deep dive into the concept of flavor, including its aroma components. The writing is articulate, considered, and balanced, but the effort as a whole is a rather pompous and dry treatise. Lescault's narration is as dry and unadorned as the text itself. His genteel, brisk, and clear delivery cannot redeem the thoughtful but yawn-inducing history and discussion of flavor's components and its delicate balancing act. There are points of interest along the way, but for the long haul this is not an enticing listening experience. W.A.G. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2017]
