Food writer legend. Award winning author. Editor at Penguin Publishing. The lady is extraordinary!
Elizabeth David and Jane Grigson. Two names that might not resonate as much with today’s audience as they should, but significantly their food writing in the 60’s & 70’s created the genre that led to everyone from Delia Smith to Nigella Lawson today. They are perhaps the two most important cookbook authors and recipe writers (amongst many other things they did) of post-world war two Britain -and indeed very influential in the English speaking world-, in shaping how modern books about recipes and food are written; how the subject of food is seen as inclusive of many people from diverse backgrounds with the act of cooking and putting food on the table for a family and friends (regardless of social class or level of experience with cooking)
Anyway find out more about her life, and her new book and English food here!
The book is out on November the 4th: https://reaktionbooks.co.uk/work/the-english-table
Music by Pavlos Kapralos:
Much love,
