The Gourmand's Egg

$50.00

As Dalí’s muse, Hitchcock’s nightmare, and humble ingredient, the eternal egg weaves a fascinating tale back to antiquity. The first volume in the series, sumptuously illustrated with exclusive photography and historic artworks, celebrates the link between food and art through original recipes and stories.

The Gourmand is an award-winning independent food and culture journal, founded in London in 2011 by David Lane and Marina Tweed, that explores art, design, literature, and fashion through the lens of food. This trilogy turns that same idea-driven, unconventional approach to three storied ingredients egg, lemon, and mushroom where the line between food and art happily blurs. Each volume is sumptuously illustrated and filled with original recipes, and the full set is available together.

“Editorially experimental, visually conceptual, but highly accessible because of the sheer wit of its inventive features, The Gourmand offers surprising delicacies.” The Guardian
