The woman who elevated food writing to an art is at her best
in this mouthwatering collection of memoirs and recipes. Boldly
confessing her prejudices and her passions, M.F.K Fisher includes
more than 140 recipes in the 17 chapters of this book.
Dishes for every course of every meal can be found here, from the
simplest to the most esoteric: tidbits, appetizers, breads,
pastries, fish, fowl, meats, soups, vegetables, desserts, and
casseroles.
Whether recalling forbidden fruits from her childhood (such as
mashed potatoes with catsup), her mother’s legendary mustard
pickles, or a Caribbean bride singing about peas and rice, each
de*ion is flavored with the eloquence, warmth, and wit that
became Fisher’s hallmark. Among the many admirers Fisher accrued
during her illustrious and varied career was W.H. Auden, who said
of her, “I do not know of anyone in the United States who writes
better prose.”
Praise for M.F.K. Fisher
”[Fisher] writes as one intelligent adult to another—practically,
often profoundly, and always beautifully. If eating means more to
you than steak drowned in bottled sauces, then she’s what you’ve
been looking for.” —The San Francisco Examiner
”If I were still teaching high school English, I’d use Fisher’s
books to show how to write simply, how to enjoy food and drink,
but, most of all, how to enjoy life. Her books are one feast after
another.” —Frank McCourt, author of Angela’s Ashes
