Illustrated by
Quentin Blake.
Photographs by
Jan Baldwin.
Inspired by culinary oddities mentioned in Dahl books and following in the vein of the earlier Revolting Recipes, this cookbook shows readers the tricks for making Boiled Slobbages, Spitsizzlers, and Hornets Stewed in Tar. Color photos and Blake's zany cartoons playfully illustrate the creations, which are accompanied by the pertinent Dahl quote and a tongue-in-cheek commentary.
