Description
Capture the essence of the Regency Season.
There was a time when the afternoon tea tray was the loveliest moment of the day, and the little sandwich, crusts trimmed and cut just so, was the plate everyone reached for first. High Society Sandwiches brings that world back to your kitchen.
Drawn from the treasured recipes of Mrs. Sarah Tyson Rorer, America’s most trusted cooking teacher a century ago, this is a complete collection of the classic tea-table sandwich in its great age: savoury and sweet, dainty canapés and scented fancies, ready to serve at an elegant afternoon tea or as a light supper after an evening’s dancing.
Every recipe is kept in Mrs. Rorer’s own graceful words, then gently annotated for the modern cook: a full ingredient list with metric and cup measures beside her handfuls and cupfuls, a clear step-by-step method, and how many each one makes, so every sandwich works first time.
Inside you will find:
- More than 100 classic afternoon-tea sandwiches, from the plain and savoury to dainty canapés and scented sweet fancies
- Full ingredient lists in metric and cup measures, clear numbered methods, and a yield for every recipe
- Savoury, sweet, rolled and ribbon sandwiches, canapés and little fancies for a tiered stand
- A hostess’s guide to making them ahead and serving them beautifully
- Modern measures and clear instructions throughout, revised and expanded in this Second Edition
Whether you host for the pleasure of it or to set a beautiful table, this is a keepsake collection to return to season after season.
What you’ll receive: the complete book as an instant-download PDF, ready to read on your computer, tablet or phone and to print at home. Nothing is shipped. Your download link appears the moment your order is complete, and the file is yours to keep and return to whenever you like.
