Book Review: "Food Anatomy" By Julia Rothman

Updated: Dec 30, 2021

ABOUT + INSIGHT


Food Anatomy is a delightfully “scrumptious” book that visualizes the different, but spectacular dishes we eat from all around the world. From all kinds of utensils, burgers, coffees, and ice creams, not to mention Germany’s delicious Fischbrötchen and the Philippines’s well-known Halo-halo. Food Anatomy"is a book for every kitchen and food lover!

Every chapter of the book features a different aspect of the world of food. It first explains the things or dishes used there, shows how to use them, and then give you a great recipe!

I’d highly recommend you go through the whole book to get the best of both the art and the food.

All in all, Food Anatomy is a great and easy read filled with tons of colorful illustrations, real-life dishes and recipes, and a slew of information.

PRAISE The food encyclopedia meets the graphic novel in this knowledgeable basic introduction to all things edible. - Booklist


It's a beautiful thing when food and art come together. Julia Rothman is definitely familiar with this notion. In the third book of her Anatomy series, Rothman enlists the help of James Beard Award-winning journalist Rachel Wharton and illustrates nearly everything there is to know about food. Not only is Food Anatomy easy on the eyes; it's also educational. Within its pages readers can find the percentage of butterfat in different dairy products, how popcorn pops, how to make tofu, short order lingo for egg orders and more. - Food Republic


In 1686, the croissant was invented in Austria. That's a fun fact I'd probably never had known or maybe don't even really need to know, but now I do, thanks to Julia Rothman's Food Anatomy: The Curious Parts & Pieces of Our Edible World. Rothman has an entire series of illustrated Anatomy books, including Nature and Farm, packed with infographics, quirky facts, and maps that you can get lost in for hours--in a fun way, not in a boring textbook way. It makes you wonder why textbooks aren't this fun to read. Can someone look into this? Thanks. - Bon Appetit
