About this product

Product Information

The Constance Spry Cookery Book is one of the best known cookery books of all time. It is one of the kitchen bibles, worshipped by millions. Known for its authoritative and comprehensive collection of recipes, it has now been brought up to date in a beautiful new metricated edition containing brand new photographs. This essential addition to any kitchen has withstood the test of time and become an invaluable source of information for every enthusiastic cook. Published in 1956, when both Constance Spry and Rosemary Hume were among the greatest names in cookery writing, it took three years to produce. Their aim was to offer a supremely practical book with chapters covering kitchen processes, soups and sauces, through vegetables, meat, poultry and game to cold dishes and pastry making. In fact everything every cook, or aspiring cook, would need to know. That the book has been so popular for over half a century is a true testament to how successfully they achieved their aim. The Constance Spry Cookbook is now an established classic (and much requested on wedding gift lists) and a timeless treasure which stands the test of time, and is perhaps even more needed today when so many people have not been taught to cook by mothers or at school. Constance Spry was the subject of a major exhibition at London's Design Museum in 2004 and a fascinating biography in 2010.

A true Bible for the kitchen.
This is one of the true classics amongst cook books ... with one of these on your shelf, you'll be equipped to produce the most wonderful food ... but if you need recipes that embrace turning vegetables into foams, or minute blobs of sauce in fancy patterns and homeopathic quantities, or indeed any of the more nonsensical "designer" foods, you don't need this. What this book does is show you how to produce food that is served in the finest Cordon Bleu restaurants.
