The Chef's Library

Favorite Cookbooks from the World's Great Kitchens

New Hardback Illustrated

Postscript summary

Jenny Linford asked 70 chefs to choose their favourite cookbook. The result is an international, illustrated survey of contemporary chefs and culinary literature ranging from a medieval Spanish book on food and drink to Sat Bains’ Too Many Chiefs Only One Indian (2012). The second section describes classic and influential works such as Escoffier’s Le Guide Culinaire and Marco Pierre White’s White Heat; and the book ends with directories of general, speciality, historical and world cookbooks.
