[Willard's] insights on the role of food in history, and how its use can reveal profound truths about different cultures, are fresh and thought provoking." --Patricia Fieldsteel, The New York Times "An admiring account of an exotic spice with a long and varied history. . . . A charming little gift for an inquisitive cook." --Kirkus Reviews "A passionate account. . . . This beguiling book could transport you to foreign lands." --Bonnie Walker, San Antonio Express-News
