The Picture Cook And Drink Book for Men
Here is a unique approach to a cookbook. Originally published back in 1950, and recently offered as a reprint by Surrey Books, this humorous look at cooking and drink mixing uses easy to follow pictures to provide simple instructions that even a guy can follow.
In addition to a number of classic cocktail recipes, it also provides some great recipes for things such as Welsh Rabbit, Steak Dinah, Crepes Suzette, and several others.
Here is a sample of how the recipes in the book are provided:
The three bottles shown at the top are Brandy, Italian Vermouth, and Angostura Bitters. Then following the recipe shown in the diagram you see the recipe as:
Delmonico
1 jigger Brandy
3 dashes Angostura Bitters
I2 tsp. Italian Vermouth
Stir with ice, strain into a cocktail glass.
While different then the recipe for the Delmonico that I list in my collection, it does show how fun and interesting this book can be.
