A lemon cookbook that reads like a magazine you want to keep. The cover is nothing but a single yellow lemon with its leaves on white, and inside the pages move between recipes, essays, paintings, and photographs, all about one fruit.
This is a 272 page hardcover, 7.9 by 11 inches, in the English edition from TASCHEN. Spreads we saw include lemon curd on toast, a towering lemon meringue, creamy lemon pasta, a whole roasted fish, and a cold cocktail over ice, next to still lifes and a chapter on lemon squeezers.
Looking for a cookbook gift? Pick one with a single subject and plenty of pictures. It works on a kitchen counter and on a coffee table, which suits a host who cooks and one who mostly entertains.
Perfect for: hostess gifts, housewarming gifts, bridal shower gifts, birthday gifts for cooks, Mother's Day, and lemon themed brunches.
Set the table to match with our citrus party supplies.
