The recipes, stories, and history in "The Eve of Seven Fishes" will
take you back to the simple days of your youth, from opening
Christmas presents after enjoying the mouthwatering meal of anchovy
spaghetti, fried smelts, and Baccala, to savoring the smell of
garlic and the company of Uncle Tony and Cousin Vinnie.
Author Robert A. Germano entices your taste buds with his
delectably authentic Italian recipes from the Old Country. With
recipes centered around the simple Italian meal prepared on
Christmas Eve, you'll savor the flavor of garlic and basil in
Germano's homemade spaghetti sauce and learn how to make true
Italian biscotti.
The kitchen was the heart of the Italian home. Not only was it a
place to cook, but it was also the entertainment area for gossip,
arguments, solving riddles, and more laughter than your cheeks
could endure.
"The Eve of Seven Fishes" invites you into Germano's kitchen and
introduces you to the peasant cooking of years gone by. But
remember, 'Too many wines spoil the cook."
WARNING: HOME CHEF AT WORK Fine dining at home with family and
friends is one of life's true pleasures, yet the kitchen can be a
dangerous place. Fire, electricity, heat, scalding hot water,
smoke, sharp knives and culinary gizmos and gadgets all present
dangers that would not go unnoticed in any environment other than
the kitchen. Combined with wine and alcohol, it's no wonder that
accidental kitchen fires are the #1 source of home fires and fire
injuries, with cuts, burns, bruises and choking incidents the
leading reasons for hospital emergency room visits. The Home Chef's
Emergency Medical Guide is a useful kitchen companion for every
home chef, whether he or she is toiling over a sizzling saute pan,
wielding a razor-sharp Japanese chopping knife or blowtorching a
creme brulee. While not a substitute for professional medical
treatment, this is a first-line guide to prevention and emergency
care amid the mayhem that often occurs preparing a fine meal at
home. Jack Sholl is a science and medical writer. Illustrations:

Mrs Beeton reigned supreme among the writers of domestic manuals in
the Victorian era. Much more than just a cookery book, or even a
guide to household management, her Book of Household Management is
full of historic and literary anecdotes - she aimed to give her
readers a thorough education. Today it is more than just a
historical curiosity; as well as a great sourcebook for nineteenth
century recipes, it also provides a fascinating insight into the
lives of the people of its time and is a thoroughly entertaining
read. This is a new edition (not a scan) of the 1861 text; it is
unabridged and includes all the original illustrations in black and
white.

This fascinating cookbook is extensively illustrated with text and
full page photographs. It contains a wealth of recipes for leftover
food that are just as pertinent and useful today as they were when
the book was written. An invaluable addition to the cook who is
conscientious about waste's bookshelf. Many of the earliest books,
particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now
extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing
these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions,
using the original text and artwork.

As her children and grandchildren began to launch out on their own,
the author felt urged to record some of the treasured family
recipes and history for posterity. This soon became a delightful
pastime, and resulted in the addition of personal thoughts and
inspirations the author had accumulated through the years. The
large collection of recipes are the result of the generous sharing
of home-loving friends, as well as those garnered while enjoying
their love of travel. The pages are a testimony of the authors love
for God, her family and the simple lifestyle she has lived and
loved for many years.
This is a facsimile of a book first published in 1755 by the owner
of a cookery school in Edinburgh. It is provided with an historical
introduction by Peter Brears who places the work in the context of
what we know about early Scottish cookery literature as well as the
particular context of this book, found in the library of Paxton
House, a mid-18th century Adam mansion in the Scottish borders. It
is a useful marker of the state of Scottish cookery at the time, as
well as full of excellent and enticing recipes. It is published in
collaboration with The Paxton Trust, the present owners of Paxton
House.
