  • About

I am indebted most of all to the good cooks who have influenced me through the years, some of whom I know only through their writings and recipes. My parents and my grandmothers always shared kitchen wisdom with me. My mother was a great cook; I inherited hundreds of cookbooks from her. What I learned from Thom Tillman and Jane Grigson continues to inspire me. I refer to the books of Elizabeth David, Paula Wolfert, and Bill Neal almost daily.

Karen Hess has set the standard for culinary historians; she has forever been generous, sharing her time and sending me photocopies of rare works and her works in progress, often with discoveries that relate directly to my work.
