The Literary Cookbooks series started in 2020 with Recipes from the World of Tolkien. In this interview, Robert will talk to us about The Brothers Grimm Cookbook, which has recipes inspired by fairy tales.

​

“It is excellent! … Anyone who might want to teach a course about fairy tales should begin with this film, for it raises many questions and clarifies who the Grimms were and how important they are.”
