Celebrating a lost era of elegant dining, this beautiful volume is evocative of other times and worlds, with recipes updated for today’s palate. With recipes of glamorous bygone main courses, and packed with culinary history, this lavish cookbook features delicious and sometimes exotic favorites from around the world. Conjuring up the heyday of Hollywood is the classic Brown Derby Cobb Salad. From New York’s Gilded Age comes Delmonico’s Roast Crown of Pork. The old-world elegance of Paris and London is evoked with decadent creations such as Le Grand Vefour’s spectacular Coulibiac of Salmon and Robert Carrier’s Beef Wellington. The seventy-five recipes have been adapted for the home cook and updated for the modern palate. Featured are dishes for meats, poultry and game, fish and shellfish, salads, and hearty vegetarian plates. The Entrées is illustrated with still lifes of these spectacular gastronomic creations that evoke the essence of old-time splendor.
