Her book really opens your eyes, it's like I can watch people make food on Instagram and tiktok and immediately see why they've done something and why it works, by dividing into salt fat acid and heat. Even just now, I saw the tomato sandwich people were raving about. Old me would have said that's bland, and a waste of time. But it has fat from the mayo, acid from the tomato, salt is left to dissolve into the tomato to bring out umami and nuanced flavors, you can toast the bread for the maillard reaction. That's why it's delicious, it's a perfect balance of everything your tongue wants to experience. Really powerful knowledge

its so easy to cook and learn to cook with this mentality and knowledge, I want to get her book bad but this is exactly how i taught myself to cook, you master these 4 elements and you can create dishes so easily from random left overs or scraps in your kitchen. Thank you so much for sharing your extensive knowledge with us!

Your book inspired me to cook again after over 10 years of ordering in. Watching your videos really disarmed me and made me more comfortable with starting again. Thanks! You are terrific!

I love your book, am almost done reading it. Now it makes sense, I never knew when I added a few drops of fresh lemon juice to things, they were instantly better. Now i do thanks thanks to you. Also why sometimes i over salted using Mortons instead of Diamond Crystal. another book.
