Miss Eliza's English Kitchen: A Novel of Victorian Cookery and Friendship by Annabel Abbs

5.0

This is a lovely story loosely inspired by real life that talks about cooking and cooking books back in the 1800s when women weren’t allowed to be cooks and the books had basically no structure to them. So Miss Eliza, an unmarried poet, decides to write a cooking book using a better and more precise language. This is actually pretty interesting, and reminded me a lot of the tv show Downton Abbey. Chapters alternate the point of view of Eliza, and Ann, her apprentice.
