46401307Paris, , Dépôt de la Librairie et Tresse, , s.d. ; 2 volumes in-8, , demi-veau brun, dos finement décorés de filets et fleurons dorés, pièces de titre en maroquin rouge, tranches jaspées (Reliure moderne dans le style de l’époque). - 2 ff., 440 pp. - 2 ff., 448 pp. - EDITION ORIGINALE de 1838, remise en vente plus tard avec des titres de relai. Elzéar Blaze (frère de Castil Blaze), né à Cavaillon vers 1786 et mort en 1848, quitta l’armée pour se livrer entièrement à l’agriculture et à la chasse dans ses propriétés, à Chennevièress sur Marne. Dans son livre, il parle non seulement de chasse, de chiens et de gibier, mais consacre d’importantes pages à la gastronomie, et cela en vrai gourmand. « Un bon cuisinier, dit-il (p. 306 tome II) c’est le grand consolateur de l’homme civilisé. » Ses références prouvent qu’il a pratiqué la littérature gastronomique. Les pages 294 à 325 du tome II mériteraient de figurer dans les anthologies de la littérature culinaire. Il y préconise une Europe gourmande et pacifique. Selon lui, toutes les nations avec lesquelles la France a guerroyé pendant l’Empire ont fini par faire l paix devant l’excellence de notre cuisine! Au cours du volume, il donne de nombreux conseils et recettes. Celle du lièvre à la broche non écorché est royale car c’est ainsi que Louis XIII voulait qu’on les apprêtât, surveillant lui-même l’opération dans ses cuisines. - Il conseille de châtrer les lapins domestiques, pour en faire des « chapons à 4 pattes », mets incomparable! Une longue digression lui permet de raconter l’histoire des sauces (pp. 388 à 403 du tome I). Thiébaud 99. Bel exemplaire, finement relié, de ce grand classique.
