David, Elizabeth. Cooking with Le Creuset. [FIRST EDITION]
DAVID, Elizabeth [née Gwynne (1913-1992)]
Cooking with Le Creuset
Watford : Cresta Press, 1969. First Edition. Printed by Cresta Press [for Le Creuset].
Quarto (205x170mm) cream stiff card wrappers, printed and illustrated red and black, stapled 16pp. Designed and illustrated by British illustrator, Heather Standring (1928 - ).
Spine lightly rubbed, wrappers age-toned, upper wrapper lightly soiled, lower wrapper moderately soiled; some signs of kitchen use not affecting the charm.
"Some of the very first cooking utensils I ever owned were orange-red cast-iron casseroles lined with white enamel. They took my fancy when I saw them in the window of a shop somewhere in Marseilles during a pre-war trip to the Mediterranean. I bought four or five of them and carried them back with me to London. At the time I was only beginning to learn to cook, and in the passage-kitchen of a basement flat those little French casseroles did much to help me. Everything I cooked seemed to turn out right. They never played me an unwelcome trick" (p.1)
The first and scarcest of several booklets by David on cooking with Le Creuset. Written for a trans-atlantic audience in both sets of measures and listing her books in both editions. Sensible practical advice and recipes which no doubt led to increased sales for Le Creuset. Not mentioned in either of her biographies nor in her compendia of articles "Omelette and a Glass of Wine" and "Is there a Nutmeg?", perhaps because Le Creuset were stocked in Conran's Habitat?
Scarce in any condition. A solid copy.
