Why read it?

1 author picked Pepper as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

McFadden zooms in on a single spice. She has researched the subject in-depth, exploring the history, botany, and culinary potential of peppercorns and their spicy relatives.

From Eleanor's list on to spice up your shelves.
