Think “Julia Child meets Marie Curie”!! Elizabeth is the reluctant star of a TV cooking show but she is really a scientist (if her mostly male colleagues will ever accept her as one). Meet Elizabeth Zott – a character in this fabulous debut novel that you will not forget in a hurry. Meet the unconventional, uncompromising Elizabeth Zott. She's daring them to change the status quo. Because as it turns out, Elizabeth Zott isn't just teaching women to cook. But as her following grows, not everyone is happy. Which is why a few years later, Elizabeth Zott finds herself not only a single mother, but the reluctant star of America's most beloved cooking show Supper at Six.Įlizabeth's unusual approach to cooking ('combine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride') proves revolutionary. Except for one - Calvin Evans the lonely, brilliant, Nobel-prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with - of all things - her mind. But it's the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute take a very unscientific view of equality. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing. Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman.
