Synopsis

This book is an extensive collection of practical, valuable 19th-century recipes for home cooking. Published in 1869 and drawing from the author's decades of experience, it is a trove of cooking wisdom, with specific, easy to follow instructions for making everything "from the preparation of the food upon which the people depend for life, health, and comfort to tempting meals, and good dinners." It includes a variety of recipes—from everyday dishes to special occasion meals—and an array of helpful tips and tricks. The book offers insights into the domestic practices and food preparation techniques of the Victorian era. It is a trove of culinary wisdom from a bygone era, but many of its recipes are still applicable and enjoyable in the current century.
