Pudding recipes book discovered in house clearance last week in Portsmouth, Hampshire, UK. Most precious as to the way cooking methods are instructed. 'Take a penny white loaf slice.....'; 'put on the fire'; No temperatures - just the 'moderate'. Most enjoyable to read the quaint use of English as well as to explore the wide ranging recipes not seen nowadays. I can imagine a Victorian cook in some stately house ordering her staff as to the tone of the discourse as printed. Few recipes going back to 17th/18th centuries. I am hanging on this book for my granddaughter in Melbourne, Australia and she is only three years old!. Mid brown hardback; 353 pages. No mention of printing reference or edition so I am assuming it is the first edition as 1917 but doubtful as the hardback frontpiece referred to 'Pot Luck' which was printed afterwards 1924??
