hi~

can any of you find the isbn number of the book described in the
subject?  i went to amazon and two other places and could not find the
isbn number for this book.  it is a very short book, perhaps 40 or so
pages, but rather large format (over a foot tall) with beautiful
photographs of black colored food.  recipes as well.  i think the
person who started this project was scandinavian in some way.

i think the title of the book was something like "black food" or
"black foods" but i wasnt able to come up with anything that way...  i
guess i would definitely like the search strategy on this one. 
feeling stumped...

thanks in advance

Hi,

I love a challenge!

I searched 
picture book of black colored foods plus recipes

then 
black cookbook
then... well you see the trend

I finally went off the deep end and did a Google search for 
Black black cookbook black 

still no help

so I searched within those results for "the color black" quotes
included.

The Taste of Black (970820)
By Björn Lindberg & Jonas Borssén (In English)
A stunning book about food, art and the color black. The photos,
recipes and spare design are really a knock out. It is a book for
anyone who appreciate culinary and photographic art. The Taste Of
Black was published in Sweden in the fall of 1997.
9 1/2 x 12 inches, 60 pages and full color. Order on line in the web
shop.

I think it's the one you're looking for.

That was fun :-)

wow.  i always wondered if there was some way to do this (successive
filtering) and somehow, all this time this escaped my eyes!

this sentence was definitely worth every cent.

thank you very much for explaining how you did the search and thanks
for finding the book!  it seems like its one of those books that
really truly arent easily available.

thanks again!
