Food IQ: 100 Questions, Answers, and Recipes to Raise Your Cooking Smarts by Daniel Holzman, Daniel Holzman, Matt Rodbard, Matt Rodbard

4.0

I received a e-arc from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

What I really want to know, is how did Holzman narrow down all the food related questions to just 100 and make it feel all inclusive at the same time?
The books title: 100 Questions, Answers, and Recipes to Raise Your Cooking Smarts really says it all, but this isn't an instructional manual on cooking. It isn't overly wordy like Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat is either an that is something most will appreciate.
There is a question that covers almost every area of food. From salt, to fermenting, from the basic, to more advanced techniques. The frozen fish question was the best for me because all I can find is frozen fish and well... it's just always that tasty. I do wish there were a few more recipes, but that's just me.
Over all, it's something that I will be purchasing.
