About This Book

The volume compiles household-tested recipes and practical kitchen guidance drawn from the author’s experience running a tea room, opening with a brief account of its origins and rules for measuring ingredients. It provides clear instructions for soups, stocks and creams; a variety of fish and shellfish preparations including broiling, frying, baking and stuffing; and accompaniments such as sauces, dressings and croûtons.
