This cookbook was also known to be the very first cookbook devoted specifically to a woman cook. Menon himself said that the title could be read as either 'cuisine' or 'woman cook'. Either way, it answered a real need in France of female home-cooks along with recipes acceptable for the bourgeois. (Willan, 218-225). It was also the only cookbook to be… Read More
