    “99 flavours divided into 16 categories and combined into 4851 pairings - perfect book for creative cooks - or anyone who’s curious about what to put with what. You can search by ingredient or by flavor categories like - roasted and toasted or salty and briny, meaty, green and grassy. I picked this up many years ago and think of it often.”
