There are a few advotees of quality in the food industry in Australia who stand apart for their absolute dedication to, and their love of the product they spend their lives promoting. Ian "Herbie" Hemphill is one of those few, having spent the best part of his life learning and sourcing the best herbs & spices available. This all adds to the possibility of greater enjoyment of the food we eat.
His previous book Spice Notes is a priceless tome that sits comfortably next to Stephanie's "Cook's Companion" on the must-have bookshelf for any food lover and cook.
His new book Spice Travels tells the story of his quest for the grail of some of the world's finest spices in a relaxed and fireside manner that is as refreshing and entertaining as Ian himself. The love of fine product shines and will add to your own knowledge and love of the spices and their use.
