The first edition of this amazing book appeared before readers in the distant 1861. And it began... "One of the most read books in the 19th century", "culinary bible", "culinary bestseller" - all these definitions refer to the work of Helena Molokhovets, a graduate of Smolny, who seemed to know everything about exemplary housekeeping and economy. By the way, only before the revolution, the author's book had more than 30 editions with a total circulation of about 500,000 copies, and what is worth the observation of Yevgeny Zamyatin that "in the emigration - the two most popular authors: in the first place Elena Molokhovets, the second - Pushkin. This book is not only a manual containing more than four thousand all kinds of culinary tips, recipes and secrets and allows you to become an amazing hostess, but an encyclopedia of life in the XIX century. Molokhovets reads like a novel about a complex interesting life and a novel about the lost past.
