Culture and Cooking
by Catherine Owen
Publisher: Cassell, Petter, Galpin and Co. 1881
Number of pages: 122
Description:
This is not a cookery book. It makes no attempt to replace a good one; it is rather an effort to fill up the gap between you and your household oracle. But although this is not a cookery book, insomuch as it does not deal chiefly with recipes, I shall yet give a few; but only when they are, or I believe them to be, better than those in general use, or good things little known, or supposed to belong to the domain of a French chef, of which I have introduced a good many.
