Dufour opens with a discussion of the taxonomy of mushrooms and advocates taking a simpler approach. He then provides some general principles for cooking with edible mushrooms including some basic recipe ideas for meals and for preserving; there are about 30 recipes. Remedies for mushroom poisoning follow, before a detailed examination of the 191 mushrooms plate by plate. Further recipes and culinary instructions are provided for specific mushrooms including truffles.
Dufour was a French botanist and mycologist. After a long career in the field of scientific education he was recognised for his work in mycology as honorary lecturer at the Faculty of Science in Paris. He was named Chevalier de la Légion d'honneur in 1935.
The artist and engraver for the elegant plates are not disclosed.
Scarce. A nice copy.
