'The mouthwatering Victorian recipes that made Victorian cook Mrs Crocombe a 21st century phenomenon' Country Life
A sumptuous cookery book and the definitive guide to the life, times and tastes of the world’s favourite Victorian cook, Mrs Crocombe. As seen on English Heritage’s The Victorian Way YouTube series.
This beautifully photographed book features fully tested and modernised recipes along with a transcription of Avis’s original manuscript, plus insights into daily life at Audley End by Dr Annie Gray and Dr Andrew Hann, and a foreword by the face of Mrs Crocombe, Kathy Hipperson. It showcases the best recipes from Mrs Crocombe’s own book, alongside others of the time, brought together so that every reader can put on their own Victorian meal.
A moreish smorgasbord of social history, How to Cook the Victorian Way is an absolute must for fans, foodies and anyone with an appetite for the past.
'Nudge up Nigella and move over Mary Berry, the latest culinary star to hit our screens and our shelves - with her best-selling book piled high in every gift shop - is none other than Victorian country house cook Avis Crocombe’ Daily Mail
