Photo from Amazon.comI bought this from a bookshop near school yesterday. It's loaded with information that will boost anyone's culinary eggheadedness without fail. The entire book covers different oils and vinegars, their history, production, uses and standards of quality, but unfortunately has no recipes, which disappoints me a little.
I love flavored oils and vinegars! My mom gave me a recipe book last year that explains how to make different types of flavored vinegars (with raspberry, citrus, garlic or all kinds of herbs). The way to make each of them differs a little but most are made by getting vinegar to a boil with your ingredient of choice; then let it macerate for a few days, filter and put it in a bottle. Let me know if I can be of any help ;)
