Todd654 reviewed Cooked by Michael Pollan
Review of 'Cooked' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Michael Pollan is such a good writer and I've read so many of his books, that this seems like a continuation of the dialog with him. He tries to put different types of cooking into categories aligned with the original four elements (fire, water, air, earth) which works for barbecue, cooking with, but is a stretch with baking bread and making beer. Nonetheless, it's quite enjoyable to read and follow as he learns how all these types of cooking used to be done - before they were hijacked by corporate factories. It links well with most of his other books. Highly recommended, but have to rank Omnivore's Dilemma well above it.
