Chili + Umami is pure flavour adrenaline. Hot, savoury, thrilling – and deeply comforting all at once.

This unbeatable pairing hits every pleasure point, firing up your taste buds and lighting up your brain so powerfully that everything else on the plate suddenly feels… a bit boring. It’s no wonder chilli-obsessed cultures around the world have their own signature dishes: Thai pad kra pao, Portuguese piri-piri, Italian-American spicy rigatoni vodka, Korean buldak chicken – and so many more.

In Chili + Umami, you’ll cook bold classics and exciting fusion dishes, and learn how to make flavour-packed condiments that turn everyday food into instant cravings. This is fast, addictive cooking for anyone who wants maximum impact with minimum fuss.
