The most favored Dutch cookbook of the seventeenth century, The Sensible Cook (De Verstandige Kock) had a major impact on the foodways of the Dutch in the Netherlands and in their New World territories.

As a part of the larger work, The Pleasurable Country Life, The Sensible Cook records the foodways of rich middle-class households, the cooking methods and typical dishes they prepared, and the implements and ingredients they employed.

Often the recipes are surprisingly sophisticated. From braising a chicken with orange peel and cinnamon to stuffing pigeons with a mixture of parsley, ginger, sugar, butter, and raisins, many of the dishes are still appealing today. Peter G. Rose has, in fact, adapted some two dozen of the recipes for contemporary use--tempting dishes such as "Shoemaker's Cake," a delicious combination of bread crumbs, butter, eggs, and stewed apples.

Handsomely illustrated with Dutch genre paintings, The Sensible Cook will interest cooks, food historians, students of social and cultural history, and the large number of Dutch descendants in America. Most important, this book will be welcomed by all who enjoy good food.

Inconsistent results for me
It does get thick and goopy. But in order for it to work I have to take 2 teaspoons as opposed to the 1 teaspoon with the other artificial sweetener version. So I’d rather do 2 teaspoons with Stevia. Results, however, for me have been inconsistent. That is not the case for me with the one that contains an artificial sweetener.

Well worth the buy!
Color: Black
Ideal paper towel holder for those small places where Space is limited. Very sturdy and functional! Windex can be placed in the holder for easier access and clean up. Easy to install , very sturdy and stable. The adhesive strength is amazing. I have mine in the bathroom to make cleaning my big mirror a breeze.

SpaceAid Paper towel holder w/spray bottle
Color: Black, Color: Black
The quality of SpaceAid products are without a doubt genius and stylish. This is my second product from them and I have to say that I love each one so far. This towel holder is made of a very strong metal and has a spray bottle that fits right inside the center of it. This makes it easy to grab your paper towel and your cleaner all at once. Saving you time. I like it even more because being disabled I can’t bend down to get the cleaner under the sink sometimes, so having it right where I can grab it is such a convenience. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who likes to have things neat and organized.
