Book The Gourmand's Egg in English. Among its pages is hidden the cultural history and culinary history of this curious food, also known for inspiring the artist Dali or for creating a nightmare for the director Hitchcock. This book has been made possible thanks to the collaboration between the publishing house Taschen and the magazine Gourmand, which have decided to join forces to celebrate the close link between art and food, to bring to an end a collection of books called "Original Recipes".
