About the book

In her seminal work, «A New System of Domestic Cookery,» Maria Eliza Ketelby Rundell presents a comprehensive and methodical approach to culinary practices at the turn of the 19th century. Merging practical recipes with a thorough understanding of domestic management, Rundell'Äôs text is distinguished by its clear, accessible style and meticulous attention to detail. The book not only reflects the evolving culinary landscape of her time but also serves as a testament to the changing roles of women in society, emphasizing the importance of domesticity in the Victorian era while advocating for efficiency and economy in the kitchen. Maria Eliza Ketelby Rundell, a prominent figure in early 19th-century culinary literature, was deeply influenced by her own experiences and the socio-economic context of her era. The loss of her husband spurred her to support her family through writing, leading her to publish this pioneering cookbook which quickly became a staple in British households. Rundell's insights into the art of cooking were informed by both popular trends and her own experiments, fostering a legacy that would shape domestic cookery for generations. «A New System of Domestic Cookery» is a remarkable resource for anyone interested in historical cuisine, home economics, or the evolution of women's roles in the culinary sphere. Its practical advice and engaging style make it essential reading for both scholars and home cooks alike, inviting readers to explore the rich tapestry of domestic life in 19th-century England.
