description: A syllabub is a classic English dessert; it was also once the pseudonym of The Observers cookery writer who penned classic columns on food for the culinary-minded in midcentury London. The book predates the era when in season meant twelve months per year and the book is arranged accordingly by month. Wit and sophistication take precedence over ingredient/temperature/time and it is more droll exposition than actual recipe.
