It was great to be able read the bio of Mrs Beeton and Mrs Marshall and to see the recipes that they used.

...it was interesting to read how Tudor foods are becoming popular again in trendy, pricey restaurants and how you can make these foods at home... I loved the book for the history and (these recipes) would be a great accompaniment to any of the Philippa Gregory books if they are the focus of a book club.

This book was fascinating and the stories covered the historical gamut of how food leads to crime. And these are some darn interesting crimes. We all need food, which is why people with eating disorders struggle to quit more than those trying to quit smoking as no one needs a ciggie to survive! Well crafted and interesting to read, I will recommend it to my foodies, crime fanatics and others who are in search of a good read!

I had never heard of Elizabeth Raffald before and this was a great way of introducing her to the audience. I enjoyed how well Neil Buttery wrote this and how well this was researched. I enjoyed going on this history and am glad I got to read this.
"No, Elizabeth was of different stock – she was a housekeeper and an excellent one at that. She wrote entirely by experience, everything gleaned from her diverse knowledge and the copious written notes and recipes she must have kept with her, both in the shop and in domestic service. ‘Her earnest enthusiasm is all-compelling;'"
