300 Tested Recipes - edizione con copertina flessibile

Originally produced to raise funds for 'The Training Home for Girls, Kenilworth', Guy's Cliffe, Warwick in 1912, this book contains 300 recipes covering meat, savories and soup; puddings, sweets, and cakes; jams, pickles and chutneys. These were all supplied by many different people who presumably had some connection with the home and this has created a splendid variety of dishes including a recipe for 'A good kitchen soap'. All of the contributors are acknowledged and this adds to the interest. Many of the recipes would not be found in the cookery books popular today and will appeal to amateur and professional cooks alike who are looking to add variety to their menus. When this book was first produced it was the norm to have servants and that is reflected in some of the preparation times. Nevertheless not everybody is looking for the quick fix.
