Ottolenghi "Flavor"

I find "his" books more inspirational than formulaic. That said, my ingredient access is stellar.

If you do not have a variety of ethnic markets in your area, be warned. Kefir lime leaves, curry leaves, white miso, gojuchang, mexican chiles, and other less common ingredients play a role in this book. 

 

Though one thing notable about Flavo(u)r is that it draws on a very specific and somewhat edited pantry of unusual ingredients, most of which are practical to stock up on and keep around. To me that's an improvement over his previous books, where each recipe seemed like it had one oddball ingredient that didn't get used anywhere else.
