The Soul of a Chef: The Journey Toward Perfection by Michael Ruhlman

5.0

In my current binge on food-related books, this book conveyed most clearly what it means to have a reverence for food.

At several points in the book, I felt like I was reading a sports commentary as Ruhlman described the process of cooking. Which made me think that cooks are, in a sense, like athletes in their pursuit of perfection.

And I really liked Thomas Keller's take on how one should approach to preparing and eating meat.
