Mary and Vincent Price's Come into the Kitchen Cook Book by Mary Price, Vincent Price


Mary and Vincent Price's Come into the Kitchen Cook Book by Mary Price, Vincent Price will be released on Nov 16th by Dover Publications
I guess it will be a great cookbook but pity we couldn't see any recipe in the copy sent us but we just read in the various introductions which were the favorite recipes of Mary and Vincent Price and how fabulous they were. The couple published several cook book in fact.

I loved to read the memories of little Victoria Price, daughter of the couple, the love her parents put in the kitchen when she was still a toddler and the importance of kitchen for them all. Victoria thinks that in a family the kitchen is the environment more important of a house and a real symbol of love. Being an interior designer she loves to design beautiful kitchens for all her clients.

She tells with great pleasure of the time she spent with each parent in the various mansions they had when she was little, the adoration for pancakes, and other specialties, like also the big love of her dad for risotto and how, once too old he couldn't prepare it anymore but he was helped by her.

The only upsetting part of this book, considering also the rich introductions, the absence of recipes. It would have made the difference, considering that this one is a cook book.

There are at the end of the book some historical illustrations and some kitchens' pictures.

I thank NetGalley and Dover for this book
