Summary:
A multicultural cookbook from the early nineteenth century, supplemented with historical context and modernized recipes, holds treasures to excite today's readers and cooks. When The Practice of Cookery first appeared in Edinburgh and London editions in 1829, reviewers hailed it as one of the best cookbooks available. The book was unique not only in being wholly original, but also for its broad culinary influences, incorporating recipes from British North America, the United States, England, Scotland, France, and India.
