Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When The Practice of Cookery first appeared in Edinburgh and London editions in 1829, reviewers hailed it as one of the best cookbooks available. The book was unique not only in being wholly original, but also for its broad culinary influences, incorporating recipes from British North America, the United States, England, Scotland, France, and India. Catherine Emily Callbeck Dalgairns was born in 1788. Though her contemporaries understood her to be a Scottish author, she lived her first twenty-two years in Prince Edward Island. Charlottetown was home for much longer than the twelve years she spent in London or her mere six years' residency in Dundee, Scotland, by the time of the cookbook’s first appearance. In Mrs Dalgairns's Kitchen, Mary Williamson reclaims Dalgairns and her book's Canadian roots. During her youth, the popular cookbook author would have had experience of Acadian, Mi'kmaq, and Scottish Highlands foods and ways of cooking. Her mother had come from Boston, inspiring the cookbook's several American recipes; Dalgairns's brothers-in-law lived in India, reflected in the chapter devoted to curry recipes. Williamson consults the publisher's surviving archives to offer insights into the world of early nineteenth-century publishing, while Elizabeth Baird updates Dalgairns's recipes for the modern kitchen. Both an enticing history of the seminal cookbook and a practical guide for readers and cooks today, Mrs Dalgairns's Kitchen offers an intimate look at the tastes and smells of an early nineteenth-century kitchen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mrs. Clarke's Cook Book: Containing, Over One Thousand of the Best Up-to-Data Recipes for Every Conceivable Need in Kitchen and Other Departments of Housekeeping There is a beautiful legend that tells how Elizabeth of Hungary having been forbidden by her lord to carry food to the poor was met by him one day outside the castle walls as she was bearing a lapful of meat and bread to her pensioners. Louis demanding sternly what she carried in her robe, she was obliged to show him the forbidden burden. "Whereupon," says the chronicler, "the food was miraculously changed for his eyes to a lapful of roses, red and white, and his mind disabused of suspicion, he graciously bade her pass on whithersoever she would. It would be well for some husbands if "their eyes were holden" in such a way that food served them would seem other and better than it really is. But the sense of taste is a rebellious member-especially in the men. It will cry out against the best appearing dish, if its flavor is not of the best There is but one way to sure success. Tho housewife herself must be the angel who casts the spell about the humble board and the lowly fare, and invests them with forms and odors of irresistible attractiveness. This is the true poetry of Domestic Cookery; and blessed is the home where one presides who knows this art, and makes each meal a feast and every guest a glad participant. But things do not always take so happy a form. For instance: there was recently a brutal murder in Troy, N. Y., and a paper, reporting the case, clumsily said: "A poor woman was killed yesterday in her own home, while cooking her husband's breakfast in a shocking manner." Quoting this statement, a contemporary remarked: "There are many women who cook their husbands' breakfasts in a shocking manner, but it is seldom that justice overtakes them so summarily." The subject is a serious one to joke over, but the turn given by the commenting paper is bright and suggestive.
