"A most difficult task is to find just the cook one is looking for .
.
.
It never pays even to interview the 'good plains,' and very seldom the chef-trained or 'equal to chef.
' The first think that, as they call themselves plain cooks, they are entitled to boil everything and to serve it with a garnish of water.
Any sweet above a trifle - there is nothing below - has no place in their repertoire.
On the other hand, the chef-trained cook is quite unable either to roast or to grill meat, though she can send up the most marvellous looking mousses.
It is only by their position on the menu and the fact that they taste vaguely of sugar or salt that you know whether they be made of lobsters or of strawberries.
" The first of five recipe books by Ruth Jeanette Emilie Lowinsky (née Hirsch, 1893-1958); in 1919 she married the painter Thomas Esmond Lowinsky (1892-1947); not without means, they rented Garsington Manor during the Second World War.
