M. HALSKA. WHAT TO EAT TODAY AND HOW TO COOK. SECOND EDITION, REVISED AND EXPANDED. WARSAW 1942, GEBETHNER AND WOLFF. 18x13 cm; p. 211, [1] Cardboard publisher’s binding, slight scuffing on the spine but still in very good condition.
Published during the German occupation, this book—as stated in the introduction— is not a cookbook in the traditional sense of the word, that is, it does not contain a list of dishes and methods of preparing them in a way that guarantees exquisite flavor, satisfies refined tastes, or appeals to the aesthetic sense in presentation, but rather allows one to survive in the reality of the occupation. Hence chapters such as: Substitutes, Ready-Made Items; What Not to Throw Away on the Farm; Saving Fuel—the Leftovers Cooker.
RARE IN SUCH GOOD CONDITION!
