About this product

Product Information

Sub-titled How to Make the Most of Country Produce and Country Fare , this 1934 book has eight chapters: 'a general survey of storeroom and larder' with hints on how to use 'pickings' and gluts thriftily; chapters about garden and orchard fruits and making use of garden produce (chutney and stuffed peppers); a chapter about milk, cream and butter, one called 'the sportsman's bag' with recipes for pigeon pie; and chapters on herbs and 'hobbies of the country housewife' (eg. dressing rabbit skins). And there are some essential recipes such as 'household bread', potato toast and stewed lettuce. The Country Housewife's Book , which has charming line drawings, would be enjoyed by anyone interested in cooking, in old-fashioned methods of food production or simply in running a house.
