Cocinar: Una historia natural de la transformación
by Michael PollanUna magnífica investigación para comprender el poder mágico de transformación de la cocina. «Los cocineros trabajan con materia viva, no solo con teclados y con pantallas, sino con cosas fundamentales como plantas, animales y hongos.

Y a pesar de eso, y aunque tenemos acceso a ingredientes frescos llegados de todos los rincones del mundo, año tras año nos hundimos más y más en las tierras pantanosas de la comida procesada. El maravilloso libro de Michael Pollan es un alegato a favor de las virtudes y los valores de cocinar, una actividad esencial que se remonta a los orígenes de nuestrasculturas, nos define como seres humanos, configura la vida familiar y produce placer. Pollan nos explica los fundamentos de la cocina a partir de los principios más básicos y de los distintos tipos de transformación de la comida a través de los cuatro elementos: agua, fuego, tierra y aire. Cocinar es una divertida invocación a los lectores para que tomen el control de su propio destino, y vuelvan a ser capaces de divertirse con el mágico poder de transformación de la cocina. Porque cocinar puede transformar el modo en el que nos vemos a nosotros mismos y a nuestra familia y amigos.
