Some slight edge wear to top and bottom of largely cream jacket and spine, not price clipped (£25.00), no inscriptions, internally clean tight and square, overall a vg+ copy. 535pp, illustrated. First published in 1845, Eliza Acton's (1799-1859), book was a precursor of Mrs Beeton, which included several recipes plagiarised from Acton's work, and is now considered by many to be the better book. This lost masterpiece sets out the principles of modern domestic cookery and it offers a wealth of timeless recipes for every conceivable food and occasion. With instructions on basic techniques ranging from frying fish to roasting meat and poultry and simple recipes such as Cucumber Soup, Spiced Beef, Venetian Fritters and Compote of Peaches, this book contains the first recipe for brussels sprouts, and the first use in an English cookery book of the word spaghetti, which she spelled sparghetti and 'currie' (I followed her recipe for curried eggs - delicious!). It also contains the first recipe for what Acton called 'Christmas pudding', the dish was normally called plum pudding, recipes for which had appeared previously, although Acton was the first to put the name and recipe together It is packed with wisdom, experience, common sense and delights! It has been admired by British cooks in the second part of the 20th century, and influenced many of them, including Elizabeth David (who wrote the Introduction to an earlier version of this book), Jane Grigson, Delia Smith and Rick Stein et al. Quite a scarce book.…
