Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a unique glimpse into the world of Victorian culinary practices, a time when entertaining at home was an art form. The author, a respected figure in the field of cookery, presents a collection of luncheon recipes designed to elevate the midday meal from a simple repast to a sophisticated and enjoyable social occasion. The author meticulously outlines recipes for a variety of dishes, from elegant seafood preparations to rich game and poultry entrees. Throughout the book, the author's voice shines through with practical advice, showcasing a deep understanding of not just ingredients and techniques, but also the social dynamics of hosting and the importance of timing and presentation. The book also reflects a broader cultural shift in Victorian society, as the author underscores the growing interest in lighter, more delicate dishes, departing from the heavier meat-centric approach that was common in previous generations. The author's careful attention to detail and emphasis on the importance of well-balanced, well-executed meals for entertaining offer a valuable perspective on the evolution of culinary trends and the vital role that food plays in social interaction.
