322 pp. "The Dali Cookbook." Designed & illustrated by Salvador Dali. Translated from the French by Captain J. Peter Moore. W/ a stunning gold foil illustrated dj. Illustrated endpapers. Many full-page, full-color illustrations, and more in two-color or b&w. 136 recipes in 12 categories: exotic dishes; eggs & sea food; first course; meats; snails & frogs; fish & shell fish; game & poultry; pork; vegetables; aphrodisiacs; desserts; hors-d' oeuvre. With an introductory section on "Dalinian Gastroethics", and a blunt warning: "We intend to ignore those charts and tables in which chemistry takes the place of gastronomy. If you are a disciple of one of those calorie-counters who turn the joys of eating into a form of punishment, close this book at once; it is too lively, too aggressive and far too impertinent for you." Decadent recipes! [Book ID # 119]
