Reseña del editor
Excerpt from Home Cookery in War-Time
A charming lady, who is also a good cook and a clear writer, had promised to write for the publisher of this volume a little manual of Home Cookery in War time. The Red Cross called her away before the first page was written and I am bidden to step into the breach. For a man who is one year too old to join anything more important than a Home Defence corps, it is some consolation to try and serve his countrymen in another way. Cuisine c'est médecine, said Michelet; and good cookery is a cure for the mind's as well as the body's ills, besides being cheaper in the end.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. Written against the backdrop of the First World War, this book offers a unique blend of practical cookery advice and insightful social commentary. The author, a man stepping in for a female colleague called away by war duties, addresses the challenges and opportunities presented by wartime conditions, particularly the need for thrift and resourcefulness in the kitchen. The book primarily targets middle-class households, those 'cursed neither by poverty nor by riches,' and encourages a shift away from extravagant pre-war culinary habits. The author emphasizes the importance of adapting to the realities of wartime, advocating for simpler, more sustainable practices while maintaining the pleasures of good food. Rejecting rigid adherence to recipes and scientific food theories, the author champions flexibility and resourcefulness, urging readers to 'plan your dishes with what you have.' He emphasizes the value of fresh, seasonal ingredients and critiques the overreliance on processed or overly concentrated 'fad foods.' The book encourages a return to traditional cooking methods like steaming and braising, promoting the use of casseroles and other tools that facilitate slow, gentle cooking. Ultimately, this book transcends mere cookery instruction, offering a philosophical reflection on food, consumption, and the art of living well amidst challenging circumstances. It serves as a timely reminder that culinary satisfaction and economic prudence can coexist, and that resourcefulness in the kitchen can be a source of both personal and national strength. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781330190913_0
