It arrived today. The new book, *In Search of Perfection* by Heston Blumenthal of The Fat Duck. I have only taken a brief glance at a few of the recipes and stories and come to realize something quite profound. Heston packages techniques, ideas, concepts, and innovations in an approachable box. Yet, if you open the box and look inside, you begin to uncover stuff you should have thought of, techniques you should be using, methods which should be followed. I plan to spend more time reading this book like a novel—I do that with cookbooks—though for now, I want to let others know that this book is certainly worth getting. The food is what you might consider simple. Do not let that fool you.
