EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and feast your eyes on this stunning 18th century kitchen scene by the renowned illustrator Pauline Baynes. The heart of the home, this kitchen is brimming with an abundance of delicious food, ready to be savored and enjoyed. At the top of the dresser, a Stargazey pie takes center stage, its pastry lid lifted to reveal the fish eyes peering up, a traditional Cornish delicacy that was believed to bring good luck to the fishermen. Next to it, a baked ham is proudly displayed, stuffed with succulent apricots and surrounded by golden brown crackling. Fried apple pasties, gooseberry tansey, and a posset bowl and punch ladle add to the array of mouth-watering treats. The gooseberry tansey, garnished with cinnamon sticks and maidenhair fern, adds a burst of color and fragrance to the scene. Beneath the dresser, an orange flower cream is decorated with intricate designs and topped with angelica and almond blancmanges. Raspberry cream, prunes, and a hedgehog pudding complete the feast, each dish carefully arranged and waiting to be savored. The kitchen itself is a work of art, with a roaring fire crackling in the hearth, casting a warm glow over the scene. The cook, clad in traditional 18th century garb, busily prepares the next dish, adding to the lively and inviting atmosphere. This historical kitchen scene by Pauline Baynes is a testament to the rich culinary traditions of the 18th century, transporting us back in time to an era of delicious food, warm hearths, and the joy of sharing a meal with loved ones.
