Product Description

Following the success of the "Gone With The Wind Cook Book", "The Casablanca Cook Book" (the second Abbeville cookery book inspired by a legendary film) presents such delicious creations as "Here's Looking at You, Kid" Champagne cocktail; Ilsa's Honey Almond Gazelle Horns; Yvonne's Spicy Chick Pea Fritters; Play It, Pear Flan; Sam's Cocoa Cinnamon Kisses and Casablanca Couscous Salad. The unforgettable combination of Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman has appealed to film-lovers and romantics for the last half-century. Now, to commemorate the premiere of "Casablanca" fifty years ago and coinciding with the release of the film in cinemas across the country, Abbeville presents "The Casablanca Cook Book", a charming combination of Moroccan recipes and American wit. In the film, Captain Renault orders his forces to "round up the usual suspects". In this cook book, Abbeville has rounded up the unusual salads, appetizers, cookies, desserts, and drinks of Morocco. 50 Moroccan recipes are simplified for the British kitchen, complemented by 15 classic cocktails and tropical beverages which might have been served at Rick's. Easy-to-follow recipes (each with a maximum of ten ingredients and short preparation time) are sprinkled with amusing trivia from the movie, forming the perfect Casablanca party planner.
