24 leaves

File contains approximately 35 undated culinary recipes, and 2 medicinal recipes. The file also includes 2 letters addressed to Mrs. Warde. One is from F. M. Coldwell and refers to losing her recipes (letter partially crossed). The second contains a recipe for "gateau de pomme." Another letter with enclosed recipes for nougat, macaroon, and "everlasting cakes" is marked from Mrs. Warde. Some dishes represented in the recipes include: arrowroot blancmange, biscuits, buns, shortcakes, apple wine, porter, lemon cake, marbled beef, and mock oyster sauce. One large bifolium contains multiple recipes addressed to "my sis," including: "good lemmon caudle, at a winter supper," kidney toasts, "to dress a calves chitterling," "to fry calves feet," frigacy calves feet, summer Brawn (calves head), quince cream, "barberry jelly and marmaled," currant jelly, pickle capsicum (with the personal annotation: "Mrs. George Cooke, Mr. Warde's Aunt, a better houswife lived not in her neighbourhood"), lemon jelly, lemon and orange cream, and egg butter. Two loose recipes appear to be medical in nature, including one to treat dropsy.
