A keepsake fill-in book for capturing and collecting all the things you love and appreciate about your mother.

Long acknowledged as the inspiration for modern masters like Julia Child & Claudia Roden, A Book of Mediterranean Food is Elizabeth David’s passionate mixture of recipes, culinary lore, & frank talk. First published in 1950, it has been unavailable in hardback since the 1960s, so Grub Street is delighted to restore it in a facsimile edition alongside other Elizabeth David hardbacks. The book features recipes from her time in France, Italy, the Greek Islands & Egypt, showcasing the color & fun of the Mediterranean. Dishes include soupe au pistou, pebronata from Corsica, & skordalia of the Greeks; some are sumptuous, many simple, most sublime. Ingredients are readily available today, often using familiar vegetables, fish & herbs in new ways. David includes interesting sidelights on eating habits, extracts from famous authors, memorable meals, & insights on cookery & eating. Illustrations by John Minton embellish the text.

A delightfully illustrated gift edition with more than seventy-five best-loved rhymes.
