A Cookbook for Poor Poets and Others

“My most cherished cookbook! Here Ann Rogers acknowledges the real challenges of creating beautiful meals on a strict budget (even the cost of cooking fuel) and lays out the essential foundations of great meals, no matter how meager: fresh bread, butter, good wine, and great company. Some of the recipes are weird, and definitely use ingredients that are no longer found on supermarket shelves, but its ethos is timeless.”
