Editorial Review | "If you love mustard as much as I do (okay, maybe that's not possible), then this book is a must. Guzey has unlocked all the secrets of mustard culture and gives us a deeper appreciation of the king of condiments. This little gem is loaded with history, literature, art, and the things that make mustard more than just something we eat. That sweet honey mustard, that nose-tingling Dijon, and that earthy truffle mustard will all taste even better when you devour this excellent book."--Barry Levenson, curator and founder of the National Mustard Museum, Wisconsin |
