Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Written early in the last century, this books offers a window into the past. It is surprising how many of the ideas put forward then as proposed changes for better living, are being advocated today. Some are clearly ahead of their time...others miss the mark. Apparently, all hope for the future of Australia lays in it's wines.
It is only in the last 1/4th of the book that the author finally gets to recipes. Like many recipes of that era, a modern cook will have fun trying to decipher amounts and in some cases ingredients: how much is a "fagot" of herbs? Which herbs? If you are comfortable working around these sorts of challenges, then this is worth the download.
I like these books to see old recipes for sauces, condiments, and other such things. In today's world they are mass produced and have lots of additives - being able to make them myself is healthier, cheaper and can be adjusted to suit our tastes.
