Legendary cook Elizabeth David introduced a dreary post-war Britain to the sun-drenched culinary delights of the Mediterranean; to foods like olive oil and pasta, artichokes and aubergines - foods that have become the staples of our diets today. Now, published for the first time, is this beautifully illustrated collection of her most inspiring and delicious dishes. Never before have her recipes been photographed to showcase the richness and variety of the food that she was so passionate about.
Published to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Elizabeth's first book, At Elizabeth David's Table has twelve chapters guiding the reader from tasty soups and starters, through to meat, fish and desserts. Sections on successful bread making, as well as more extravagant dishes, ensure that this will become the cookery bible that you will turn to, time and time again. Interspersed throughout the book are some of Elizabeth's short essays - from how to cook 'fast and fresh' using storecupboard ingredients, to evocative portraits of French and Italian markets - all previously published in Vogue and the Spectator.
With an introduction by Jill Norman, literary trustee of Elizabeth David's estate, the book also contains tributes from some of today's most popular chefs, like Jamie Oliver, Rose Gray and Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall.
