Quotes

“Umami is a universal taste, and although Japanese cooking has codified the term, chefs across cultures understand the balance and depth it brings to a dish. There is a cultural connection among chefs, one that crosses ethnic boundaries and language barriers, and this book is a perfect example of the connection.”
Thomas Keller, The French Laundry
“Umami is a more complex sensation than the other tastes, and it seems to depend on them to be fully appreciated. But as the following pages make clear, an acquaintance with umami has become essential for the modern professional cook, and for anyone who wants to enjoy food to the fullest.”
Harold McGee
