' Housewives and professors of the gentle art of cookery who deplore the dearth of dainty dishes will find a veritable gold mine in Mrs Johnson's book.' —Pall Mall Gazette. Appeals to us from a totally original standpoint. She has thoroughly and completely investigated native and Anglo-Indian cuisines, and brought away the very be.st specimen.s of their art. Her pillau and kodgree are perfect, in our opinion; curries are scientifically classed ami (^x[ilainofl,aiKl some of the daintiest recipes we have ever seen are given, but the puddings particularly struck our fancy. Puddings as a rule are .so nasty! The pudding that is nourishing is hideously insiiiid, and of the smart pudding it may truly bi; said that its warp is dyspepsia, and its woof indigestion. Mrs Johnson's puddings are Ixjth good to taste and pretty to look at, and the names of some of her native dishes would brighten any menu.
