The Book of Herb Cookery, first published in 1940, established itself as a popular kitchen copainion, and is now reissued, owning to steady demand and changing times, in a new edition that contains additional recipes and a new chapter on how to convert a maligned leftover into an inspired Creaton. As every cook worthy of the name will tell you, it is the iaginative and unexpected touch that transforms the mundane dish. The proper use of the simple garden herbs creates just that difference. In this day of labor saving, short cut and speed-up and take out, seasoning with herbs is more essential than ever before. The basic yield of freezer, of can, of package of ready-mix -- must be treated and b lended with a magic, yet essentially simple alchemy. This is the function of garden herbs, and this is the book which explains now, when, and why to use them. More than fifty different varieties are listed in a conveniently arranged alphabetical table with commentary. The book is composed of hundreds of recipes, covering all items of the menu, all practical and easy to follow. Size: 5.5 x 8 x 1.25" Weight: 13 oz Pages: 256 Language: English
