Description
TASCHEN · The Gourmand
A lemon is never just a lemon – it’s a Medici treasure, invisible ink and the star of 60 recipes.
“The Gourmand’s Lemon” is the second volume in the series TASCHEN publishes with the cult London magazine The Gourmand – a hybrid of art book and cookbook. The lemon was the star of the Medici gardens, protected sailors from scurvy and has served as invisible ink since the 7th century. The book follows it through the literature of Joan Didion, F. Scott Fitzgerald and James Joyce and through art from the Old Masters to Picasso, Matisse and Warhol. Add 60 recipes from the world’s kitchens – poultry, sauces, cocktails and desserts – photographed by Bobby Doherty. Foreword: Simon Hopkinson, introduction: Jennifer Higgie. English edition, 272 pages.
