Sunshine in the kitchen.

Responsible for introducing olive oil, aubergines and courgettes to a British audience depressed by wartime austerity, Elizabeth David remains one of the most important food writers of all time. Celebrating regional variety and honest, fresh food David's evocative prose continues to delight conjuring up all the colour and flavour of a good French market or Italian deli. Filled with delicious recipes- a truly inspirational book which makes you want to grab your apron, dust down the casserole dish and fill the house with delicious garlicky smells.

A culinary classic- essential reading for any self-respecting foodie.
