ELIZABETH DAVID ON EGGS; AND SO MUCH MORE

"I shall try to explain these things, and others connected with the successful manipulation of eggs, for they are well worth the practice needed and the time and money you must spend.  From unsuccessful attempts there is much to be learnt, so one must count an occasional wasted egg or failed soufflĂ© as profit rather than loss."
