David (Elizabeth). Green Pepper Berries, A New Taste, June 1974, one sheet folded twice to form a 4-leaf pamphlet, a few light marks, approx. 140 x 110 mm. An extremely rare piece of Elizabeth David ephemera, describing the fruit of the climbing plant piper nigrum, and detailing two recipes: 'Green Pepper and Cinnamon Butter' and 'Green Peppercorn and Cream Sauce'. Elizabeth David is considered responsible for bringing Mediterranean influences into the British home, thereby changing our attitude to food, and enlivening the British palate. In a Britain worn down by post-war rationing and dull food, she celebrated the regional and rural dishes of places such as French and Italy. When her first book, 'Mediterranean Food', appeared in 1950, it was completely different to anything that had gone before. Not only did it describe little-known ingredients and aromatic dishes, but its style was quite new. Many of the ingredients she used simply weren't available in Britain, where rationing persisted until 1954. In fact, some of the ingredients were unknown when the books were first published, and David had to suggest looking for olive oil in pharmacies where it was sold for treating earache. It was only after publication of her first book that Elizabeth realised the frustration she caused by writing of apricots and figs, olives and wild thyme. But the demand she created was instrumental in persuading suppliers to source these foods. Within a decade, ingredients such as eggplants, saffron and pasta began to appear in shops, thanks in no small part to David's books. David gained fame, respect and high status and advised many chefs and companies. It is to her that we owe the roots of our enthusiasm for the flavours of "those blessed lands of sun and sea and olive trees". (1)
