Summary: "Culture and Cooking; Or, Art in the Kitchen" by Catherine Owen is a culinary guide written in the late 19th century. The work seeks to bridge the gap between traditional cookbooks and the culinary aspirations of its readers, emphasizing the art of cooking as accessible to all, regardless of social class. Owen intends to provide not just recipes but also an understanding of cooking principles that elevate the quality of home-cooked meals, illustrating that fine dining is not solely the domain of the wealthy. The opening of the book presents the author's perspective on the significance of cooking in daily life, arguing against the societal notion that cooking is beneath refined individuals. Owen acknowledges the challenges many face with failed recipes and aims to demystify the process of cooking, connecting it back to enjoyment and creativity rather than tedious drudgery. At this stage, she introduces her approach, promising to share a handful of recipes deemed superior or lesser-known, all while championing the idea that cooking is an art form worthy of intellectual pursuit.
