Imperial and Royal Cook: Consisting of the Most Sumptuous Made Dishes, Ragouts, Fricassees, Soups, Gravies, &C. Foreign and English: IncludingPaperback, 21 January 2009
Frederick Nutt is most commonly known as one of the leading
confectioners in Georgian England. Yet his expertise extended to gourmet
cookery as a whole. Consciously not a book intended for everyday,
domestic cookery, this 1809 volume collects recipes intended to be
produced in the most oppulent English and Foreign kitchens for the
entertainment of those who are not so scrupulous with expense. This work
is a fascinating look at the gourmet foods of the Georgian era.
