Umami Bomb: 75 Vegetarian Recipes That Explode with Flavor by Raquel Pelzel
2.5
Some very tasty looking recipes, especially if you eat a lot of cheese, but she did a poor job explaining the wide range of vegetarian & vegan sources of umami. And some of the ones she covers are inaccurate in quantities of umami or WHY and HOW that methodology is bringing out umami free amino acids. I really like her writing style, just super wish there were more science-y specifics available somewhere in this book. Or... that I at least felt confident she'd understood it better herself before writing the book.
