The Library After Dark

Food History

The Gastronomic Regenerator

by Alexis Soyer

Alexis Soyer wrote this in 1846, while he ran the kitchens of the Reform Club, which he had helped to plan, with gas and steam where most kitchens had coal. It holds nearly two thousand recipes for the tables of the rich. His Modern Housewife, beside it, was the cheaper book for everyone else.
