The Victorian World Fare Cookbook, Volume 4: Antique Recipes from Around the World by Mimi Riser
This book starts off with notes from the author about the series of recipes.
Each recipe has a title, how to make, no measurements on some. No pictures and NO nutritional information.
for instance one recipe tells you to cut beef into thin slices, cover with a round of potatoes crust which that recipe is also included. Very vague measurements at times if any measurements at all.
Cool to have this very old book, interesting concepts and you should be able to imagine how they can be used in today’s world.
