The book also tells the largely unknown story of a group of women chefs who fought for recognition in the all-male culinary establishment of the 1970s.

For Karen Blixen var gastronomi en kunst på lige fod med litteratur, musik og maleri. Derfor gik hun til gastronomien med dannelse, selvbevidsthed, passion, ufravigelige kvalitetskrav og høje forventninger. Med en ukuelig vilje lykkedes det Blixen at stable et køkken op på farmen i Afrika. Hendes madlavning gik fra et absolut nulpunkt hvad angik håndelag, udstyr og råvarer og endte med at blive kaldt det afrikanske kontinents svar på Ritz. Da hun blev forfatter lagde hun kogekunsten på hylden - i hvert fald den udførende del.
