From Our Library

A selection from our library of antiquarian cookbooks and household manuals. Your patience may be required while images load.

The current selection is from W. Carew Hazlitt's "Old Cookery Books and Ancient Cuisine" (1886), Part II, Cookery Books, which contains extracts from E. Smith's Compleat Housewife, 1736.
