The Gourmand's Lemon. A Collection of Stories and Recipes

Bright, bold, and unexpectedly powerful, the lemon takes center stage in the second volume of TASCHEN’s collaboration with The Gourmand. Revered in Renaissance gardens, embedded in literary symbolism, and woven into design history, this radiant fruit carries stories far beyond the kitchen. From Old Master still lifes to modern icons like Picasso and Warhol, from Philippe Starck’s Juicy Salif to the humble lemon stand as a symbol of the American dream, the lemon proves endlessly inspiring. Enriched with essays by Simon Hopkinson and Jennifer Higgie, and featuring over 60 lemon-driven recipes from around the world, this volume is a vibrant celebration of food, art, and culture.
