Essential 6 page laminated kitchen-proof guide for both the professional chef and homegrown culinary enthusiast. Chef Jay Weinstein, CIA-trained veteran of America’s finest kitchens, including New York’s Le Bernardin and Boston’s Jasper enumerates the relevant leaves, seeds, barks, buds, resins, and other plant-based seasonings of modern world cuisines sharing techniques such as infusions, herb-oils, rubs, and curries in easy-to-execute tip boxes and charts enabling any cook to make any flavor fast. From aromatic properties to classical and cutting-edge pairings, create flavor profiles of both Western foods and emerging food scenes of Asia, Latin America and beyond. Make marinades truly penetrate, broths genuinely profound, and coax the most essence from every herb and spice. For gardening chefs, the guide enumerates the seven best methods for locking flavor into dried, infused, and otherwise preserved homegrowns. For the aroma-curious, it maps out intriguing spice adventures to enliven everyday meals. For the novice, it defines every herb and spice needed to produce just about any dish they wish to master. This may be the only herb and spice reference a good cook will ever need. 6 page laminated guide includes:DefinitionsHerbs: Fresh or Dried?Cuts, Blends & BundlesCurriesBuying Storing & Preserving Herbs & SpicesDrying HerbsSaltTips & TricksChili PowdersCulinary Herbs Reference TablePhoto of the HerbDescriptionFlavor ProfilePairingsFormsChef’s CommentsCulinary Spices Reference TablePhoto of the SpiceDescriptionFlavor ProfilePairingsFormsChef’s CommentsCoaxing the EssenceGrowing at HomeMarinades & Rubs

Review: An excellent reference for anyone that cooks. It provides much more than uses for herbs and spices. - This is a 6-page laminated guide that would be useful for both experienced as well as novice cooks. If you are anything like me, you probably do research on the internet to find recipes to add to your collection so that dinners don't get boring, not only for the cook but for the people you are cooking for. I am a very experienced cook and most often use recipes only for ideas - I seldom follow a recipe as written since I often feel they need more flavor. I grow quite a few herbs in my basement, but, most often, I'm not sure how to use them or how they can be used together to enhance flavors in foods. The whole idea of using herbs and spices in foods is not so much to flavor them as to enhance the flavors in the foods you are cooking. Unless you have a storehouse of information in your mind of how to use every herb and spice and how to combine them, this 6-page laminated pamphlet is worth more than it's weight in gold. Sure, you can can do internet searches to find out what herbs and spices go with what and which go good together, but this pamphlet has it all without trying to come up with the right search words. I have added pictures of all the pages in this pamphlet, but, hopefully, you can get the idea of the information provided. If I were to describe everything in this pamphlet, this review would be extremely long and boring. I can say it describes quite a few herbs and spices including description, flavor profile, pairings, forms, and additional comments. It also includes a section on how to store and preserve herbs and spices as well as tips on how to grow them at home. There is also a section on how to make marinades and rubs. I noticed one review said the information in this pamphlet was basic, but, to be honest, I haven't found this much information on the subject in books I have bought, and the information in this pamphlet is much easier to find. Personally, I would highly recommend this pamphlet for anyone wanting to experiment with and enhance their cooking experience. I hope this review was helpful for you. I will update my review if my opinion changes.
Review: Great instructional guide - This is a six page laminated guide to different herbs and spices. It gives you the definition of different items that you may hear chefs discuss or see in recipes such as; blend, extract, infusion, marinades and rubs. It also goes into herbs, fresh or dried and it tells you when to add them how to process them and the difference between the two. It also goes into the different type of cuts of herbs, such as chiffonnade, chop and grate. It gives you a good guide of blends and bundles that you can put together and make different flavored items and also gives you storing techniques, drying your herbs, and freezing your herbs so you can use your fresh herbs all year round. Also, it covers refrigerating your herbs and which ones to refrigerate. It’s got different types of salt that you want to read along with bunch of different tips and tricks for you to use. It also lists ton of different herbs and spices that you will want to go through. It gives a description of them the flavor profile the pairings that they go best with the different forms of that herb. The spice section gives you a multitude of different spices that you may have in your pantry right now, but aren’t sure quite how to use them. In addition to the above it also covers growing your herbs at home and recipes for making different marinades and rubs. I highly recommend this guide!
