"Desserts and Salads" Overview

Vintage Victorian cookbook with almost a thousand recipes from puddings and ice cream to soufflés and pies. This turn-of-the-century publication is interesting in many ways. The forward is quite severe, urging readers to "read the recipes herein contained carefully and thoughtfully before attempting the making of any of them" and to measure exactly and to keep trying when failure strikes. Finally the author espouses that "You should always bear in mind that honest work is never lost and the reward must come in the end." A fascinating reflection on the times and the food habits of the American household. Originally published in 1892, this is a reprint of the 1918 edition, which added an appendix, and a chapter of "war recipes." Mrs. Lemcke was well known for her lectures and writings on cooking, and was Principal and owner of the Brooklyn and New York Cooking Colleges.
