| Publisher Description: Originally published in 1915, this classic work aims to lay the foundation for skill in cooking by directing the pupil to follow established recipes and to treat the process of cooking as experiments in a scientific study. Recipes and directions for cooking are supplemented by suggestions which assist the pupil to appreciate the significance of each step he takes and to observe the change that is taking place in the substances he is using. This is a fascinating read for anyone studying cookery with much of the information still useful and practical today. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. |
