Through her books, columns and master-classes Denise Phillips has
gained a reputation as the doyenne of Jewish cookery, and her
enticing and stylish recipes are an original blend of the old and
the new. Now, in her eagerly-awaited new book, she presents over
200 of the best of them from around the world, giving also the
background and rich history of Jewish cuisine and customs over the
centuries through which it has evolved. In this sense, Jewish
cookery is arguably the first example of 'fusion' cooking, being a
melange of the various local food and cooking customs of the
countries that Jews have lived in and travelled through that are
then adapted for Jewish dietary laws, holiday rituals and
symbolism. Whether for entertaining with style, cooking for the
family or providing the traditional dishes for the Jewish
festivals, this book will prove indispensible...and you don't have
to be Jewish to use and enjoy it!
New Orlean's history. Recipe Collection of Mathilda Garrette Smith,
1878-1972, Cajun Cuisine
Part of a striking upheaval in attitudes to food and cooking
between the wars, The Gentle Art of Cookery was published to
immediate success in 1921, providing a level of detail that was
unusual amongst its contemporaries, while inspiring its readers
with its daring recipe selection. With chapters entitled 'Dishes
from the Arabian Nights', 'The Alchemist's Cupboard', and a
collection of startlingly original 'Flower Recipes', in which
renowned herbalist Hilda Leyel and her assistant Olga Hartley
revive the medieval use of flowers for food with recipes such as
Rose Ice Cream, Nasturtium Salad, and Marmalade of Violets, this
book can't help but capture the imagination of even the most jaded
of recipe readers. With its intensely modern focus on vegetables -
six chapters devoted to vegetables, pulses, nuts and grains -
revival of old tastes and suggestions of new ones, this book points
towards the sophisticated work of modern molecular gastronomy and
demonstrates how elegant and innovative British food can be.

This is the fourth of six parts of a facsimile reprint of a
compendium of cookery, gardening, animal husbandry and general
household medicine which was published in two volumes in about
1760, having first been offered to the public in 41 weekly parts in
1756. The author claimed "upwards of Thirty Years Experience" as
housekeeper or cook, possibly in the service of a Lady Hewit, whose
manuscript receipt book - cookery and medicinal - is copied into
the published work. The work is arranged as a calendar discussing
marketing, cooking, preserving, brewing, medicines for men and
animals, and tending the orchard, the herb and vegetable garden and
the pleasure garden, month by month. Among its features are
descriptions of foods bought - spices, sugar, anchovies, olives,
soy sauce - as well as foods grown or cooked. Other hints about
marketing - buying fish, for instance - are more detailed than in
many other manuals of the period, and there are lists of specific
varieties of fruits as they are ready for the table.
