«Fisiología del gusto» is the gastronomy essay by J. A. Brillat-Savarin, published by Editorial Optima in paperback (342 pages, in Spanish).
«Fisiología del gusto» was originally published in 1825 and blends science, history, poetry, anecdotes, recipes, diets, aphorisms and narratives about food. Brillat-Savarin, formed in the spirit of the Enlightenment, aims to found gastronomy as a discipline and provide it with scientific analysis, without renouncing an engaging tone.
This 2001 edition preserves the subtitle «Meditaciones de Gastronomía Trascendente» and includes a foreword by Néstor Luján.
For readers interested in the history of gastronomy, the classic essay and cultural reflection on food.
