Supper with Mrs. Beeton by Beeton

Supper with Mrs. Beeton by Beeton

This is part of a series of little books, each designed to be a charming gift. The books give both snippets of information from Mrs Beeton's original edition of "Cookery and Household Management" as well as practical ideas for cooking and presenting really special meals. Early in the 19th century, Victorian families often took a late supper before bedtime, having eaten a heavy dinner early in the evening. Later on, Supper Dances, Balls or Receptions became fashionable, and these would consist of an often elaborate cold buffet with a selection of light savouries, pies, cold meats and puddings. Here we have a variety of quick and tasty recipes designed for light refreshment after a visit to the theatre or as an informal evening meal, with many of the traditional recipes, along with ideas on presentation and Mrs Beeton's advice on preparation, cooking methods and short-cuts to make an extra special supper.
