| Summary | "The Cult of the Chafing Dish" by Frank Schloesser is a culinary treatise written in the early 20th century. It explores the art and versatility of cooking with a chafing dish, emphasizing its practicality and elegance for both bachelors and couples. The book dives into not just the mechanics of using the chafing dish but also reflects on broader themes of food culture, dining etiquette, and the pleasures of creative cooking. The opening of the book introduces the concept with a detailed appreciation of the chafing dish, personified as "Chaffinda." The author humorously extols its virtues while addressing potential critics and kitchen traditionalists. He establishes a tone that combines practical guidance for preparing meals with a lighthearted narrative style, framing the chafing dish as not just a cooking appliance but as an instrument for culinary exploration and social dining experiences. Schloesser’s approach invites readers into a world where inventive, simple dishes can be crafted with elegance, catering to the modest needs of individuals and the social aspirations of gatherings.
