Verwandte Artikel zu A Gothic Cookbook: Hauntingly Delicious Recipes Inspired...
Inhaltsangabe
When it comes to food, Gothic literature is loaded with meaning. The sumptuous honeymoon meal of pheasant with hazelnuts and chocolate was the epitome of consumption and indulgence in The Bloody Chamber. The rich aroma of smoky, peppery stew lull’s Dracula’s victims into a false sense of security, while the dripping crumpets and melt-in-the-mouth angel cake served in Rebecca are pawns in a battle for control.
Draw near and join us as our darkly atmospheric meal begins, for the table is set and laden with ravishing recipes from the literary crypt. To start, Mrs Dudley has prepared a spooky souffle to whet the appetite in The Haunting of Hill House. For your main course, enjoy the potted sirloin of beef that comforts Arthur in The Woman in Black, accompanied by a pile of jade green vegetables like those spotted by Dorian Gray during his walk in Covent Garden. The acorns feasted on by Frankenstein’s vegetarian ‘monster’ can make a crumbly, delicately sweetened bread. Delight in Jane Eyre’s fragrant seed cake for dessert, and wash it all down with a Fearless French 75.
These are just a few of the recipes that adorn this delicious literary-inspired cookbook. With knife-sharp analysis, mouth-watering recipes and lavish illustrations, A Gothic Cookbook is the perfect culinary companion for those of you who enjoy a slice of the macabre with your meal.
