Extras

"Clever Cooking, 1896 gives us another way of observing Seattle history. Reading the recipes, menus, advertisements, and essays reveals cooking techniques, such as the use of chafing dishes, and the popularity of certain foods, such as oysters and potatoes. It also shows us that the women who wrote the book as well as its potential readers led a sophisticated life style. And where else but a cookbook would you find out that some Seattleites gave French dinner parties, complete with fine wine?. All of this makes clear, that Seattle grocery stores stocked their shelves with the most up-to-date ingredients. and implements. These are subjects so often missing from history books, and that is why it is so important to preserve and republish cookbooks such as Clever Cooking, 1896. The determination and achievement of the Women's Guild merits both our thanks and admiration. One hundred years later we can enthusiastically agree with the Rubric writer who wrote in September 1896, "it is really one of the very best to be found anywhere." From the Introduction by Jacqueline B. Williams, 2005
