Synopsis

Food stylist and home economist Mable Hoffman (1922-2010) had been married a good 30 years when a wedding gift caused her career to take an aromatic detour. They were the recipients of that early 1970s present -- the newly invented electric slow-cooker. But the bridegroom's family owned a publishing company, and he proposed a cookbook featuring the appliance. This resulted in Hoffman’s genre defining “Crockery Cookery”. A prolific and award-winning cookbook writer, Hoffman published 18 cookbooks over 25 years. A year after “Crockery Cookery” came this book, “Crepe Cookery”, which includes 200 tested recipes for every meal; 26 different batters, tantalizing sauces, appetizers, main dishes, desserts. Hoffman starts at the beginning with descriptions of traditional cooking pans and the, at the time, new upside-down pans; she goes onto explain how to make perfect crepe batters; describe techniques of cooking, filling and shaping; how to prepare tasty and delightful fillings for every meal; sauces and toppings to make each serving express your culinary skills. Crepes are fun and economical. Serve class ‘Crepes Suzette’ at a fancy dinner; glorify a Sunday brunch with ‘Bombay Curries Egg Crepes’; borrow Italian elegance with ‘Crepes Cannelloni Style; stretch your budget with ‘Thrifty Beef Stroganoff Crepes’. Explore the recipes in this book and then strike out on your own.
