Each book (there are 22 in the series) contains spectacularly detailed food. His animal adventure books are legendary for the descriptions of epic feasts. Readers who have salivated over the sumptuous feasts that feature in Brian Jacques’s books will be delighted to find The Redwall Cookbook. My favorite from this gem of a book Barbaloot’s truffula fruits from The Lorax(strawberries dipped in yogurt.) 3. The recipes are generally on the simple side and meant to be made with children, although one or two take more intensive work. A surprising amount of his rhymes are all about food! Green Eggs and Ham make an appearance, but you’ll find other recipes like Schlopp from Oh, the Thinks You Can Think, tub cake from The Cat in the Hat, pink yink ink drink from One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish, nice lime ice from I Can Read With My Eyes Shut, even who-pudding and who-roast-beast from How the Grinch Stole Christmas. The delicious silliness continues with Green Eggs and Ham Cookbook by Georgeann Brennan.

My favorite recipe Boggis’s chicken from Fantastic Mr. The recipes range from labor-intensive to simple and are a lot of fun.

Twit’s beard food from The Twits, Bogtrotter’s chocolate cake from Matilda, and even mosquito’s toes and wampfish roes most delicately fried from the Centipede’s rhyme in James and the Giant Peach (don’t worry, they’re toast with butter and sesame seeds). There are plenty of recipes from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory of course (lickable wallpaper!) but you’ll also find the Snozzcumbers and Frobscottle from The BFG, bird pie and Mr. We’ll start out with one of the best: Roald Dahl’s Revolting Recipesby Felicity Dahl, recipes by Josie Fison. Like a heavenly mix of all that is good in this world, including chocolate. Here are five fabulous books of cookery based on actual books.
