About this book
Soups, fish, meats, pastry, preserves and home-made drinks are all covered in this American cookery manual of 1840, the tenth edition of Eliza Leslie's Directions for Cookery. Her preface, dated Philadelphia, 1837, explains the plan: each receipt, as recipes were then called, is written to stand alone without sending the cook to other pages, and uses only ingredients that could be had in the United States.
Chapters also take in vegetables, eggs, pickling, cakes, bread, and preparations for the sick, with a short section on perfumery near the end.
