More quotes by Eliza Acton
It is not, in fact, cookery books that we need half so much as cooks really trained to a knowledge of their duties.
Eliza Acton
I love thee as I love the tone Of some soft-breathing flute Whose soul is wak'd for me alone, When all beside is mute.
Eliza Acton
It may be safely averred that good cookery is the best and truest economy, turning to full account every wholesome article of food, and converting into palatable meals what the ignorant either render uneatable or throw away in disdain.
Eliza Acton
