Le Cuisinier Durand; Finely Bound
Finely bound early printing of Charles Durand's work on French cuisine. Octavo, bound in three quarters leather over marbled boards, frontispiece portrait of Durand. In good condition.
Gastronomy has historically been a primary factor in defining French regional and national identity, and at the turn of the 20th century, accounts of regional recipes, products, manners and customs penned by local dignitaries became a competitive practice. Le Cuisinier Durand contains an exhaustive selection of recipes including those for sauces, veal, beef, fish, cremes, and confits.
