What Our Customers Say...
Description
Illustrated, Original Binding, Publishers' Original Binding
Revised edition. Illustrated with a portrait frontispiece and one hundred and twenty-five in-text images. The author founded Marshall's School of Cookery in 1883, which taught high end English and French cuisine. This cookery book, intended for students of the school as well as home cooks, includes recipes for soups, roasts, sweets, puddings, cakes and breads, as well as advice for the freezing of ice and ice dishes. Written by Agnes Bertha Marshall, an English culinary entrepreneur, inventor, and celebrity chef. An unusually prominent businesswoman for her time, Marshall was particularly known for her work on ice cream and other frozen desserts, which in Victorian England earned her the moniker "Queen of Ices". With thirty-four leaves of publisher's advertisements to the rear. Dated from the British Library.
