A wonderful vintage cookbook by Paula Peck, author of The Art of Fine Baking.
Originally copyrighted in 1961, with an additional 1966 copyright, this comprehensive cookbook features 334 recipes and Paula Peck’s distinctive approach to preparing elegant meals.
The book covers a wide variety of international and American dishes, from simple everyday meals to sophisticated entertaining.
Recipes include Béarnaise Sauce, Curried Eggs, Mushrooms Provençale, Madeira Onion Rings, and many others.
Chapters include homemade foods in reserve, first courses, soups, egg dishes, fish, meats, poultry, vegetables, salads, and desserts.
Special bonus: Includes two vintage Cook Book Guild promotional inserts, including an advertisement for Mary Meade’s Modern Homemaker Cook Book.
Condition: Good vintage condition overall. Original illustrated dust jacket shows age-related yellowing, staining, edge wear, and small tears. Brown cloth hardcover appears well preserved. Interior pages show light age toning but appear clean and readable. Please examine all photographs for condition details.
An excellent addition to a collection of vintage cookbooks, culinary literature, or mid-century American cooking.
