In this book, Miss Farmer explores the usage of the chafing dish throughout history, and the variety of foods that can be prepared with it.
Recipes for eggs, seafood, beef, chicken, hotcakes, cheese, vegetables and even candy confections are given, and can be easily adapted for today's kitchens by using a modern chafing dish, or by a double-boiler and suitable non-stick pans.
Fannie Farmer has other cook books available on the iBookstore which you will find gastronomically interesting as well: The Boston Cooking School Cook Book (with a red cover), A Book of Good Dinners for My Friend (with a white cover), A New Book of Cookery (with a blue cover), and Catering for Special Occasions (also with a green cover).
