BOOK SUMMARY

The inspiration for the world’s great recipes didn’t come from thin air.  Every great dish began as a tiny little whisper from a pantheon of culinary muses who have been guiding the way we eat since time began! These 13 dietary deities (a baker’s dozen!) represent a specific culinary specialty:

  • Limone – she’s the mother goddess and in charge of fruits!
  • Croissantia – wheats & grains
  • Pistachia – nuts, beans & legumes
  • Enoki – mushrooms
  • Nutmeg (Meg!) – spices
  • Licoretia – herbs
  • Kaffeina – coffee, chocolate, Diet Cokes
  • Chou-Chou – above the ground vegetables
  • Gene Shallot  – underground vegetables
  • Abby (a bee!?? lol!) – sugars & honey – all the sweeteners
  • Lactosa – dairy
  • Marshmalia – eggs & gelatin
  • Baconetta – occasional meats
