Greetings from Constanza,
In answer to the question from Paul and Jillian Louis on October 30
".............." A Gift to Young Housewives " by Elena Molokhovets
and published in the 1870s. It supposedly contains 4,000 recipies. I
know that I have little hope of ever owning this book, but if there is
a showing of it ANYWHERE please let me know.
Olga"
The books by Elena Molokhovets are listed through the Library of Congress
catalog. You might try interlibrary loan through your local library, The
Library in Baton Rouge,LA has a copy of Joyce Toome's 1992 translation.
Below are 3 of the 6 mentions of the book in the LIbrary of Congress. In
addition there is a book by Anne Volokh called "The Art of Russina Cusine"
published in 1983 ISBN 0-02-038102-6 Ms. Volokh's book contains many of the
recipes from Molokhovets' book and is based upon her book. It also gives
some history of Russian cusine.

I hope this will help. I was able to obtain a copy of Messibugo's Libre Novo
and Banchetti through interlibrary loan, although they are in the original
Italian and I am having to translate them.
