I contenuti

A classic bestseller for over a century, the Fannie Farmer 1896 Cook Book contains an incredible offering of hundreds of recipes, from how to boil an egg to how to prepare a calf's head. Farmer's instructions also go beyond recipes to include how to set the table for proper tea, full menu ideas for holiday dinners, housekeeping tips, and so much more. This book is known for pioneering the standardization of measurements in recipe instructions, which made the creation of better meals possible for even the most novice of cooks.

L'Autore

Fannie Farmer (1857-1915) came to cooking due to a stroke at the age of sixteen that forced her to remain homebound for over a decade. She took up cooking so thoroughly that she turned her mother's home into a boardinghouse known for its uncommonly delicious meals. Once she was able to walk again, Farmer attended the Boston Cooking School in the late 1880s and learned to approach cooking as a domestic science, as was popular then. The cookbook she eventually published under the school's name in 1896 became unexpectedly famous, thanks to its system of standardized measuring vessels and level measurements.
