What Chefs are Saying

“If you think of spices as what’s in those jars that have been in your pantry for the last decade, think again. With Lior Lev Sercarz’s guide, you’ll want to roast and grind your own—and you’ll wonder why you never did it before! I can practically smell his amazing spice blends just reading this book.”

—Ina Garten

“Spices can often be the unsung heroes of the kitchen. They are given the full orchestra here, and the results are bright and loud. This is a book I’ll be reaching for often.”

—Yotam Ottolenghi
