Download or read book The Complete Cook written by J.M. Sanderson and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in 1843 in Philadelphia, this volume in the American Antiquarian Cookbook Collection is derived from an earlier English work that author J. M. Sanderson heavily adapted for American usage, creating not only a cookbook that combined the best of American and European cooking of the time, but perhaps one of the first “international” cookbooks. James M. Sanderson’s The Complete Cook contains over 700 recipes, including “directions for the choice of meat and poultry; preparations for cooking, making soups and broths; boiling, roasting, baking and frying meats, fish; seasonings, colourings, cooking vegetables; preparing salads, clarifying; making of pastry, puddings, gruels, gravies, garnishes, and, with general directions for making wines.” According to the title page and his introduction, Sanderson clearly states that the majority of his book was copied heavily from a well-known English work, and he is but the adaptor. We now know the uncredited author was W. G. Lewis. Sanderson’s small contributions throughout create an excellent combination of American and English cooking. For example, he provides an American recipe for Pumpkin Pie alongside the English version, comments on cooking in the excessive heat of the West Indies, and refers to a superior English method for boiling meat without contact with the water. There are quite a few American recipes cited with their English counterparts and referred to as “the American mode,” for example, “The American Mode of Dressing Salt Fish.” This edition of The Complete Cook was reproduced by permission from the volume in the collection of the American Antiquarian Society, Worcester, Massachusetts. Founded in 1812 by Isaiah Thomas, a Revolutionary War patriot and successful printer and publisher, the society is a research library documenting the lives of Americans from the colonial era through 1876. The society collects, preserves, and makes available as complete a record as possible of the printed materials from the early American experience. The cookbook collection comprises approximately 1,100 volumes.
Download or read book The Cook s Oracle and Housekeeper s Manual written by William Kitchiner and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume in the American Antiquarian Cookbook Collection, published in New York in 1830, is a new version of a famous recipe collection previously published in London by William Kitchiner, adapted specifically for use by the American public. Dr. William Kitchiner’s The Cook’s Oracle was an enormous best-seller upon publication in London in 1824, and the author developed an international reputation based on his eccentricities and the extravagance of his writing. Unlike most food writers of the day, he cooked the food himself, washed up afterward, and performed all the household tasks he wrote about. He traveled around with a “portable cabinet of taste,” a folding box containing all of his unique mustards and sauces, and he was well known for his invention of the popular Wow-Wow sauce. No wonder that an anonymous American “medical gentleman” (as asserted on the title page of this edition) chose to adapt Kitchiner’s English cookbook for American kitchens. In addition to over 600 recipes that run the full gamut of nineteenth century cookery, the book includes information about etiquette, dinner invitations, weights and measures (one of the first attempts to standardize cookbook measurements), carving, marketing advice, and techniques of boiling, baking, roasting, frying, and broiling.

Download or read book Directions for Cooking by Troops in Camp and Hospital written by Florence Nightingale and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Civil War, this edition of Florence Nightingale’s classic volume on nutrition for the military was published by the Army of Virginia, but the book was also published in the North by order of the surgeon general. The introduction of nutrition into American military food prevented some losses from malnutrition and poor sanitation and could have saved more if Nightingales recommendations had been more widely implemented. Her book contains recipes to maintain health and to feed hospital patients suffering from scarlet fever, typhoid, dysentery, and many medical conditions. It was based on her experience with soldiers in the Crimean War. Her attention to food as being linked to particular ailments and conditions was not a completely new idea, but in the armies, doctors usually assumed that invalids could eat the same ration given to men in the field. A healthy soldier could barely chew the hardtack supplied to troops, so it was impossible for a man suffering from a jaw wound. Nightingale’s recipes took this distinction into account, and they were designed to include specific nutrients she had come to recognize as important during her earlier wartime experiences, emphasizing meat and milk (for protein) and whole grains, fruits, and vegetables (for carbohydrates). Thirty-five years later, essentially similar recommendations would emerge in the first U.S. Family Food Guide (1916). This edition of Directions for Cooking by Troups, in Camp and Hospital was reproduced by permission from the volume in the collection of the American Antiquarian Society, Worcester, Massachusetts. Founded in 1812 by Isaiah Thomas, a Revolutionary War patriot and successful printer and publisher, the society is a research library documenting the lives of Americans from the colonial era through 1876.

Download or read book The Complete Confectioner Pastry Cook and Baker written by Eleanor Parkinson and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in 1846 in Philadelphia, this volume in the American Antiquarian Cookbook Collection contains over 500 recipes for making confections, pastries, and other baked goods by one of the foremost confectioners of the day, whose family is widely credited with establishing ice cream as a national dish. Eleanor and George Parkinson opened a confectionery shop in Philadelphia in 1818 that became a renowned business with an outstanding reputation. Along with their son James, they were among America’s most prominent confectioners. Their ice creams were particularly famous, and few nineteenth century American cookbooks failed to include several recipes for “Philadelphia Ice Cream.” In writing her cookbook, Eleanor clearly states that, after studying both French and English works, she chose Read’s Confectioner, a London publication, as the basis for her cookbook. However, she made many alterations based on her own experience with the “oldest, most extensive and successful confectionery establishment in the country,” and she added recipes that utilized American ingredients. The book contains “directions for making all sorts of preserves, sugar-boiling, comfits, lozenges, ornamental cakes, ices, liqueurs, waters, gum-paste ornaments, syrups, jellies, marmalades, compotes, bread-baking, artificial yeasts, fancy biscuits, cakes, rolls, muffins, tarts, pies, &c. &c." Plus over fifty different recipes for ice cream.

Download or read book The Cook Book of Rare and Valuable Recipes written by An Eminent Physician and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume in the American Antiquarian Cookbook Collection, published in Philadelphia in 1850, is an exhaustive compilation of hundreds of methods, formulas, and recipes for culinary, housekeeping, agricultural, and medical issues of importance in nineteenth century households, assembled by an unknown physician. In his introduction, the “eminent physician” cited as compiler of this fascinating volume states, “There was a time when ladies knew nothing beyond their own family concerns; but in the present day there are many who know nothing about them.” His intention was to supply every possible bit of information about housekeeping, homemaking, farming, and medical care that contemporary women seemed to lack. His work contains hundreds of procedures, advice, and recipes organized in a whimsical hodgepodge without a table of contents or index to guide the reader. For example, a recipe for “an excellent tooth power” is sandwiched in between “a method of cleaning china” and “how to stain paper.” Similarly, “pickling tomatoes” can be found between “means of stopping a runaway horse” and “grafting grapevines.” It makes an engrossing, entertaining read that provides an intriguing portrait of nineteenth century lifestyles. Although many medical entries appear throughout the text, the final 20 percent of the book appears to be an independent and uncredited work entitled The Family Physician—such plagiarism was common in nineteenth century publishing. In fact, the disorganization of the material makes it likely that the entire contents of the book were taken from an existing volume or a number of sources and the “compiler” simply collected other authors' work in this encyclopedic treasury.

Download or read book The National Cook Book written by Hannah Bouvier Peterson and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in 1811 to a prominent Philadelphia Quaker family, Hannah Bouvier was particularly concerned with making her recipes as useful and practical as possible, drawing them up in the “most concise and simple manner,” sacrificing “style to minute detail; not even avoiding repetition where it might render directions more explicit.” She noted correctly that in many contemporary cookbooks, the cook was forced to wade through a “formidable amount of reading before she can learn the process of making a pudding,” and others at the opposite extreme “are so brief in their explanations [they] are ever liable to misconception.” Bouvier’s training in mathematics and popular science advanced her goal of making the recipes as easy to use as possible for American women of the day, utilizing only readily available utensils and ingredients and encompassing only “purely American” cooking. She was also deeply concerned about cooking for the sick and convalescent and included a significant section with recipes prepared according to the directions of an eminent local physician. As might be expected of a scientist, the book is thorough and comprehensive, including recipes for soups, fish, meat, vegetables, sauces, pickles, pastry, sweets, tea cakes, cakes, preserves, and miscellaneous dishes, clearly organized with both a detailed table of contents and index, unlike many contemporary cookbooks that lacked both.

Download or read book The New Hydropathic Cook Book written by Russell Thacher Trall and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With mid-nineteenth century advances in scientific studies of health and nutrition, diet-based cookbooks like Dr. Russell Trall’s proliferated. Trall founded the New York Hydropathic and Physiological School in 1854, and his New Hydropathic Cook Book was one of the first to subscribe to the school’s advocacy of the water cure, using baths and drinking pure water to combat disease and maintain health. The diet proposed in the cookbook consists almost entirely of fruits, grains, and vegetables, with a few animal-based recipes thrown in for those who demanded a wider diet. More than just a list of recipes, the cookbook presents the basis of Trall’s diet—the belief that all nutritive material comes from vegetables, and thus animal foods are inferior because they are derivative and likely to be impure. It also includes a discussion of digestion and an exhaustive catalogue of vegetable foods.

Download or read book My Mother s Cook Book written by Ladies of St. Louis and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The category of “charity cookbook” is a favorite in American culinary history. Funds raised by sales of these cookbooks, with recipes donated by women’s groups and church societies, were used to aid a wide variety of local causes and charities. My Mother’s Cook Book belongs in this category—an excellent example of regional cooking styles of the post-Civil War Midwest. Several hundred recipes compiled by Ladies of St. Louis for the Women’s Christian Home include a complete range of dishes from soup to nuts, tending toward dishes “my mother” used, and handed down from mother to daughter. The ladies’ droll sense of humor is captured in the preface: “The recipes gathered in this priceless volume have been sent from all parts of the known world; several even from New Jersey.” Although the ladies are unnamed, a dedication by Mrs. E. F. Richards and the Misses Glover thanks all the contributors as well as local advertisers who aided the project (ads for merchants selling a wide variety of merchandise, including the “latest gems of fashion,” are included at the front of the book). This edition of My Mother’s Cook Book was reproduced by permission from the volume in the collection of the American Antiquarian Society, Worcester, Massachusetts. Founded in 1812 by Isaiah Thomas, a Revolutionary War patriot and successful printer and publisher, the society is a research library documenting the lives of Americans from the colonial era through 1876.

Download or read book Modern Cookery in All Its Branches written by Eliza Acton and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 439 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eliza Action’s masterpiece set out the fundamentals of domestic English cookery and offered a wealth of dishes for every occasion. The recipes are a model of sensible instruction for preparing food simply but well. This authoritative book was not only a guide to the best English cooking, but unusually for the time, it also contained recipes for German, Indian, and Caribbean dishes. Acton’s book introduced the now-universal practice of listing ingredients and suggested cooking times for each recipe, and it included the first print recipe for Brussels Sprouts. Original illustrations and instructions on basic techniques ranging from frying fish to roasting meat conveyed in Acton’s elegant prose make the book a quintessential tome packed full of wisdom, common sense, and culinary delights. No wonder the doyenne of American woman’s affairs, the editor of the most influential and widely read magazine of the day, Godey’s Lady’s Book, chose to adapt the book for her American readers. In her preface, Sarah Hale gushes that the work is well adapted to the wants of this country at the present time, and that it is so complete she has little to add except regarding preparation of foods that are more strictly American such as Indian Corn, Terrapin, and others. She carefully marked her additional matter in brackets, and she did revise some articles and terms not generally known here. The result is a treasury of international cuisine written by two experts that was published and reprinted for decades. This edition of Modern Cookery, in All Its Branches was reproduced by permission from the volume in the collection of the American Antiquarian Society, Worcester, Massachusetts. Founded in 1812 by Isaiah Thomas, a Revolutionary War patriot and successful printer and publisher, the society is a research library documenting the lives of Americans from the colonial era through 1876.

Download or read book Baker s Guide written by John Weild and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume in the American Antiquarian Cookbook Collection, published in 1870 in Boston, is by a “practical” baker with twenty-seven years of experience in the baking business, and he shares his secrets for making all categories of baked goods for the benefit of professionals and private bakers alike. John Weild states in his preface that he is writing for professional bakers, those who work in hotels, eating houses, and saloons, in order to expand their capabilities from one branch to another, and he claims that his book is the first of its kind for a professional audience. His goal is to help loaf-bread bakers become proficient in cake-making and vice versa. In particular, his recipes are clearly written to achieve his goal of making the book the standard authority for all cake makers, including ladies who bake for their families. Contents include over 200 recipes for loaf-bread baking, cakes, pastry, jellies, ice cream and water ices, pies, crackers, and puddings.
