Description
Purported to be the inventor of the recipe for Coronation Chicken (for the coronation of England's Queen Victoria in 1832), Charles Francatelli was one of the Victorian era's most famous chefs. In this 1859 volume, he scales his recipes for the modern home, emphasizing simplicity and economy in cookery, thus making many of the recipes he made for his wealthy patrons accessible to the public.
