The Art of Cookery Made Plain and Easy -
Hannah Glasse
1788 - Printed for J. Rivington and Sons, London - A New Edition, with all the Modern Improvements: And also the Order of a Bill of Fare for each Month, in the Manner of Dishes are to be placed upon the Table, in the present Taste
An early edition of this classic 18th century cookbook, which ‘revolutionised the way the British cook’.
With the large folding ‘Order of a Modern Bill of Fare, for each month’ which is often lacking.
‘She's the first domestic goddess, the queen of the dinner party and the most important cookery writer to know about. No, not Isabella Beeton; not Delia Smith nor Nigella Lawson, but an earlier incarnation of a kitchen trouble-shooter, Hannah Glasse’ - Rose Prince, The Independent (2006).
‘The Art of Cookery has a River Cafe Cookbook quality - in fact her excessive use of butter, which can have a lovely clear flavour, can be likened to the liberal dribbling of olive oil in Rogers' and Gray's recipes. The power of the book, though, is the clarity of the writing. She's authoritative but she is also intimate, treating you as an equal’ – Bee Wilson (food journalist and author).
