In 1973, Salvador Dalí published a cookbook featuring seventy-eight recipes from the dinners he and Gala hosted, illustrated by the man himself and organised into chapters (one of which is devoted entirely to aphrodisiacs, just a friendly heads-up). The book was long a collector's rarity, and Taschen has now reissued it in a revised format that actually fits on a shelf without a mortgage. The recipes are fully doable and utterly ridiculous at the same time. This is the one title in our range that even a completely indifferent visitor picks up out of sheer curiosity. Best used as inspiration or as a prop to flaunt some cultural capital, less so as a safe bet for the first dinner with your in-laws.
