Elizabeth David Classics: Mediterranean Food, French Country Cooking, Summer Cooking

Elizabeth David

4.8

This volume contains three of Elizabeth David's most popular cookery books: 'Mediterranean Food', 'French Country Cooking' and 'Summer Cooking'.

Recommended by Clare Morpurgo, Helena Frith Powell, Jojo Tulloh, and 1 others.

Clare Morpurgo

Lots of cookery books, I find, are concerned with all manner of measurements and making sauces very carefully in double saucepans – and all that kind of stuff. Elizabeth David never talks about that, she just talks about the basic things that you need to make things delicious. [source]

Helena Frith Powell

Eating is fundamental to life and to some extent defines you. You don’t look good if you live off McDonald’s and Diet Coke. [source]

Jojo Tulloh

French Country Cooking has got briefly written recipes that are encouraging but also kind of improving. It makes you feel like you need to try harder, which is a good thing, but then Elizabeth David says something like, ‘The merit of food, all different kinds of food, is less important than the spirit with which cooking is approached.’ As opposed to being determined to do it in a spirit of martyrdom, you see?
