4.0 out of 5 stars
Very easy to follow and prepare,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Directions for Cookery, in its Various Branches (Kindle Edition)
I just downloaded this, and have not yet tried the recipes(hence 4 rather than 5 stars), but I know I will like this one. Miss Leslie began her cookbook with an explanation of measurements that are easily followed, and states specifically that she wrote this so that all could use it regardless of their level of cooking and of their economic status in 1840. I do believe their quality of yeast was somewhat less than it is today (I'm not using a wineglass full of yeast to make 12 rolls), but the directions are simple, and most of the ingredients are not difficult to find.
Once I have made a few of these recipes, I will follow with another review. Cheers, and happy cooking!
