Author Maria Zizka introduces readers to ideas from color theory and cooking sciences, explaining how to master food styling and cooking techniques to enhance and preserve color, without any artificial additives. But cooking by color isn’t just about looks; it is an approach that draws connections between aesthetics, seasonality, and flavor. Arranged in a gradient, the recipes begin with creamy shades of white—from a coconut cod and rice bowl to a garlicky bean and cauliflower salad. Yellows evoke the bright flavors in Margarita Bars, reds bring forward fiery tastes in dishes like Mapo Ragù with Rice Cakes, and greens highlight fresh and herbal flavors with dishes like Matcha and Mint Ice Cream Sundae or Zhoug-Marinated Feta and Fava Toasts. Blues, purples, and blacks present revelations: a butterfly pea flower boa stuffed with blue oyster mushroom, a classic Italian grape focaccia turned on its head with the addition of purple ube, and elegant black tahini cookies. To tie it all together, Zizka presents a special section of Color Menus, where she teaches readers how to use food to create palettes that evoke a sense of season, theme, or even a place: a Valentine’s menu decorated with red and pink indulgences, a spring menu featuring all fresh flavors and pastel tones, a seafood-focused menu of blue and coral hues to conjure a tropical ocean vibe.\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCook Color\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eis a celebration of eating beautifully and creatively, at any moment and for any occasion.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"expandContent\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"expandContent\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e2023\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Hachette Book Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44506929627440,"sku":"01COO2402","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0051\/1954\/1312\/products\/cookcolor.jpg?v=1676091432","url":"https:\/\/nowservingla.live\/products\/preorder-cook-color-a-rainbow-of-100-recipes-maria-zizka","provider":"Now Serving","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
