Apartamento's Cookbook #10: Aphrodisiacs invites you to yearn, to confess, to make a mess, and to never apologise for wanting more. Filled with 16 recipes from lovers, ex-lovers, and food lovers from around the world, this volume unravels the obscure, the historical, the deeply personal, and the brand new world of aphrodisiacs.

Forget the clichés—this isn’t your usual chocolate-and-oyster story. Instead, sip a rosewater and cherry cocktail to mend a broken heart, fry up spiced plantains to keep it warm, test your luck with a steamy mussel game for date night, or pull apart a pavlova to divine whether he loves you or loves you not. Romantic, playful, shy, obsessive, enduring—every dish is proof that love never looks the same twice.

Featuring: Alessandro Giannatempo, Anna Archibald & Kevin Serai, Chuck Cruz & Hailee Catalano, Don Cabbage, Flora Manson, Gloria Kabe, Helena Fradera, Jamie Lee, Kitty Coles, Lila Steinkampf, Mehreen Karim, Mia H., Rosie Kellett, Stephanie Stamatis, Sydney Lynn Carlson, and Yukiyasu Kaneko.

Seductively illustrated by Sainte Maria.
