About This Item

1750 Confectionary Cookbook MENON French Cuisine Cooking Dessert Candy Recipes

The Menon Cookbook is perhaps one of the most famous 18th-century cookbooks ever published. While the identity of the author is never revealed, he is generally referred to as Menon. While much better known for 'La Cuisiniere Bourgeoise', one of the best-known and oft reprinted cookbooks, he also published a confectionary cookbook, "La Science du maître d'hôtel". This book contains over 600 recipes for jams and jellies, marmalades and preserves, mousse, ice cream, syrups, biscuits and cookies, and much more!

This impressive 1750 first edition was published in Paris by Paulus-du-Mesnil.
