Wanna know what people who worked for Vogue Australia in the mid-Eighties thought a glamorous dinner party was? LOOK NO FURTHER. As you already know if you watch Masterchef Australia, the Australians have long been light years ahead of the UK in terms of their competence and general interest in food. This book really hammers that home. Some of the food/dishes in here have aged surprisingly well and the idea of serving sweetbreads at a dainty al fresco lunch is positively BAD ASS, as is deboning and poaching whole chickens and serving them with cardamom [sic] bread sauce. There’s also a dish called Weed Salad, which sadly isn’t Vogue Australia tipping the wink to Alice B. Toklas, it’s just a salad made from weeds.
Publisher/Published: Octopus, 1986 (True First Edition)
Condition: RNTBCHOII. Spotting, creases and things all about the place, but all in all, still in a nice and usable state.
