About this work
Description
Her Booke of Receipts.
A collection of cookery receipts, with a few medical and household receipts.
There are some additions by later 17th and early 18th cent. hands. On the verso of the first leaf is an inscription 'Mrs. Mary Criche', apparently written by the same hand as that of the writer of the title as given above. Inside the upper cover is the date 'in ye yeare of our lord god 1669' by a different hand, and below this 'Gibson ex lib.' by another and later scribe.
