The Bread and Biscuit Baker's and Sugar-Boiler's Assistant: Including a Large Variety of Modern Recipes
Wells, Robert
Baking; Bread; Confectionery
The opportunity has been taken to insert some additional recipes for
the whole-meal and other breads which of late have been so frequently
recommended as substitutes for the white bread in established use,
together with some remarks on the subject by Professors Jago and
Graham; and a few corrections in the text (the necessity for which
escaped notice when the work was first in the press) have also been
made.
