Publishers Text

SERGIOLOGY is an art object-book, not just a traditional cookbook. It's a 360-page black linen-covered book that comes with an audio device, headphones, and USB for a complete audio-visual experience into the sources of inspiration, thought processes, emotions, and creations of Sergio Herman, the three Michelin-starred chef of Oud Sluis restaurant in Sluis, Netherlands. As you look at the stunning photos in the book you can hear extraordinary people talking about their life and work, as if you were visiting an exhibition and given an audio guide with information about the work on display. SERGIOLOGY also contains inspiring stories by creative minds and culinary pioneers such as Heston Blumenthal, Pierre Gagnaire, René Redzepi, Marco Pierre White and Albert Adrià. Readers can use the audio device and headphones supplied with the book to listen to these interviews. Sergio Herman talks about the creative process of the dishes which he devised especially for this book, about what it feels like when you come up with something new and the constant pressure to innovate and be original. But he also discusses his private life: his youth, his children, Ibiza and the Zwin nature reserve. Finally he also elaborates on his much-discussed plans for the future. In addition to the audio interviews SERGIOLOGY contains over 50 recipes, each consisting of four or five separate preparations. The recipes have been made more accessible thanks to diagrams, and have been completed with 60 basic recipes. Readers thus can regale themselves with 250 different preparations, which they can use, in combination or individually, to create their own amazing dishes. In English with a separate booklet of French and German translation.
