The glutton's glossary : a dictionary of food and drink terms

John Ayto
This is a dictionary of English gastronomic vocabulary. It traces the history of food and drink terms - where they came from, when they entered the language - and combines this with the story of how the foodstuffs and dishes themselves have evolved over the centuries
