Author: Elizabeth David
Hard cover with presentation box, "as new" condition.
A Book of Mediterranean Food by Elizabeth David, first published in 1950, is a groundbreaking cookbook that introduced postwar British readers to the vibrant flavors and traditions of Mediterranean cuisine. Drawing on her experiences in France, Italy, Greece, and the Middle East, David presents a rich collection of recipes that emphasize fresh ingredients, simple preparation, and the joy of seasonal eating. More than just a cookbook, it evokes the sunlit landscapes, markets, and kitchens of southern Europe, offering readers a taste of escape and inspiration during a time of rationing and austerity. Her elegant prose and passion for food helped revolutionize modern cookery, establishing her as a pioneering voice in gastronomy.
