Good cooks always compain

Part I. No one ever tells you the things you need to know before you cook. Part II. Don't let yourself be hoodwinked. Part III. Culinary terms

Know your quantities

Declare war on those gadgets

Cooking begins with basics

Not a stockpoit in the house

Fine fish is never boiled

Cheesy-eggy-hammy-topside

Roasters aren't born-they're made

Mince? No, thank you!

Oh that poor spud!

Let your starches breathe

No mystique in these

Be creative with those remnants

Thank you, Lord Sandwich

Shopper's guide.

Notes:

"Bon Viveur is the pen-name of Johnnie and Fanny Cradock, the famous husband and wife team of gastronomes and cooks who, more than anyone else, helped to put cooking this country back on its feet at a time it had almost withered to a grey, unpalatable chore, after years of food shortages, substitutes and rationing"--P. [2].

"First published 1964. Second impression 1964. Third impression 1965."

"Designed and illustrated by William S. McCall."

"The painstaking revision and amendments made by Alison Leach to the original manuscript of this book are acknowledged gratefully by the authors whose spelling and syntax are in perennial need of improvement."
