Practical cooking and dinner giving : a treatise containing practical instructions in cooking, in the combination and serving of dishes, and in the fashionable modes of entertaining at breakfast, lunch, and dinner
A cookery treatise by Mary F. Henderson, published in New York by Harper & Brothers in 1877, giving practical instructions for cooking, arranging dishes and entertaining at breakfast, lunch and dinner. The four pictures are plain wood-engraved plate illustrations of finished dishes: a stack of rolled cylinders on a platter, a dish of small pastry pieces, a fish or omelette topped with thin strips, and skewered rolls set on a spit. Their clean line work suits menu cards, food-history graphics or vintage cookbook layouts.
