D.O.M.: Rediscovering Brazilian Ingredients Description
Review
A stunning, page-turning tome. . . nothing short of a feast for the eyes.—
DuJour.comPhaidon strikes again in its continuing effort to reimagine the [cookbook] genre. This time it calls upon Atala, a magical realist of a chef whose D.O.M. restaurant in Sao Paulo is one of the most important culinary outposts in South America, if not the world. He explores 45 Brazilian foodstuffs, and one universal state of nonexistence, in this captivating volume.—
Publishers WeeklyAlex Atala's heartfelt and gorgeous love letter to the people and ingredients behind his modern Brazilian cuisine. . . Atala may very well do for Brazilian ingredients what David Chang did for Korean ones.—
