Christianity In The Kitchen - A Physiological Cook Book

de Mary Mann

13,61€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <p> Mary Mann, one of the famous Peabody sisters—reformers and pioneers of modern educational theory—believed that good digestion was synonymous with virtue, and dyspepsia was equated with sin. So the advice and recipes in her cookbook promote good eating habits in accordance with this belief, discouraging the consumption of processed and fatty foods labeling them "death in the pot." In accordance with her temperance beliefs, alcohol should not be used in cooking, and butter or lard, turtle soup, wheat flour, vinegar, and baking soda were all unchristian. "Compounds, like wedding cake, suet plum-puddings, and rich turtle soup, are masses of indigestible material, which should never find their way to any Christian table . . . If asked why I pronounce these and similar dishes <i>unchristian</i>, I answer that health is one of the indispensable conditions of the highest morality and beneficence."

As expressed in his cookbook, originally published in 1813, when Ude was cooking for the Earl of Sefton in Liverpool (whose service he left when the Earl’s son put salt in one of Ude’s soups), his recipes definitely were not meant for everyday meals, but they do represent the epitome of classic French cuisine and food service. The book is peppered liberally with French terms (vocabulary provided) and with elaborate techniques that must have been in use in the most elegant kitchens (but not necessarily beyond the reach of less elite cooks). The word <I>soufflé</I> first appeared in English in Ude’s cookbook.

Acton’s book introduced the now-universal practice of listing ingredients and suggested cooking times for each recipe, and it included the first print recipe for Brussels Sprouts. Original illustrations and instructions on basic techniques ranging from frying fish to roasting meat conveyed in Acton’s elegant prose make the book a quintessential tome packed full of wisdom, common sense, and culinary delights.<DIV><BR>No wonder the doyenne of American woman’s affairs, the editor of the most influential and widely read magazine of the day, <i>Godey’s Lady’s Book</i>, chose to adapt the book for her American readers.

She carefully marked her additional matter in brackets, and she did revise some articles and terms not generally known here.
