Here’s a fantastic 19th-century cookbook and collection of practical receipts for the household, health, beauty, business and other fields. It’s actually two-volumes-in-one. The cookery section is the largest portion of the book – more than 300 pages and more than 600 recipes that are bound to leave your mouth watering and your hands itching to get started cooking! Entrees, vegetable dishes, salads, pastries and other desserts, breakfast dishes … mm-mmm! The second part consists of household how-to, family management, manufacturer’s and professional trade secrets – more than 600 in all! How to make beers, wines, brandies, different types of soap and perfume, pharmaceuticals, hints for the home and shop and much, much more. And some of them are truly uncommon (including poisons and – gulp – embalming fluid!)
Combined, this incredible book contains more than 1250 recipes and receipts!
