Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Hardcover. The restoration of King Charles II in 1660 saw many chefs and servants of the returning nobility back at their stoves cooking as if the Civil War had never occurred. William Rabisha was Master Cook to many honourable Families before and since the wars began; His Broths, Pottages, to the taste and sight, would Esau-like, make some to sell their right. Although little is known about his life and career, he was evidently brought up in the service of a noble household, which spared no cost or charge in his instruction and education. He left Britain during the Commonwealth and evidently worked at the Royal court while it was in exile.The text is a remarkable statement of the art of cookery as it was in the 1660s, and proved to be surprisingly influential over a very long period: there are examples of wholesale borrowing from his recipes as late as the middle of the eighteenth century. Of course, he himself took advantage of recipes from earlier authors as well as using his book for conservative, revivalist ends. Hence his recycling of a treatise on carving that started its life in the fifteenth century, and his printing of an order of feasting from that same period. All this was so that thou maist see what Liberality and Hospitality there was in Antient times amongst our Progenitors: Thus hoping to see Liberality flourish amongst us once more, as in old time. Along with Robert May, Rabisha was important in the development of seventeenth-century English cuisine. Their professional lives and publications reflected their politico-religious affinities and resulted in what Stephen Mennell calls the courtly genre of cooking and recipe selection which catered to an affulent audience as evidenced by the use of expensive ingredients, elaborate preparations, and increased reliance on sauces, and which was often influenced by continental cookery.The book went through five editions and this is a facsimile of the edition printed by George Calvert at the Half-moon, and Ralph Simpson at the Harp, in St. Paul's Churchyard, London, 1682. The work's full title is The whole body of cookery dissected, taught and fully manifested, methodically, artificially, and according to the best tradition of the English, French, Italian, Dutch, &c., or, A sympathy of all varieties in natural compounds in that mystey. The text is a remarkable statement of the art of cookery as it was in the 1660s. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.…
