Elizabeth David (1913 – 1992) is the woman who changed the face of British cooking. Having travelled widely during the Second World War, she introduced post-war Britain to the sun-drenched delights of the Mediterranean and her recipes brought new flavours and aromas into kitchens across Britain. After her classic first book ‘Mediterranean Food’ followed more bestsellers, including ‘French Country Cooking’, ‘Summer Cooking’, ‘French Provincial Cooking’, ‘Italian Food’, ‘Elizabeth David’s Christmas’ and ‘At Elizabeth David’s Table’.
