Sophie Dahl

I have a bone to pick with Gwyneth.

Goop has just released her summer reading cookbook recommendations and I have to admit they’re good ones.  She’s included fun reads and serious cook soon-to-be-classics like A Cook’s Journey to Japan.  I’ve already started Sophie Dahl’s Miss Dahl’s Voluptuous Delights and I love her flowery prose and delightful take-no-prisoners attitude in the kitchen.  She’s exactly the kind of cook you hope to have in your coterie of pals– warm, witty and messy to boot.

And I really, really want a copy of The Flavour Thesaurus.  But flavour books aren’t readily available stateside.  At least not yet.

No fair, Gwyneth.  It’s cruel, really.

Maybe that cardamom cooler will help…

Enjoy!
