With four award-winning restaurants and one set to open in the Savoy in London, Michael Mina is a man with a mission: to bring the best flavor combinations to his diners. Mina knows that as a cook, you like to master one recipe or the way to prepare a main ingredient. But then you'd like to try different flavors with that ingredient. This book allows you to do this; then it offers three different ways to prepare it so you can add variety to your weekly menus. A Crispy Loin of Pork can be served with an Orange/Carrot flavor combination-i.e. Orange-Glazed Carrots, Kumquat Relish, and Carrot Risotto, an Apple/Sage combination, or a Tomato/Corn combination of accompaniments. Also included are classics from Mina's restaurants including: Maine Lobster Pot Pie, Whole Fried Chicken with Truffled Macaroni and Cheese, and for a comforting close to the meal: Root Beer Float with Warm Chcolate Chip Cookies.This book will cause a big buzz in the food world.
