**** The recipes marked with an Astrix are currently available on this website, "www.italyrevisited.org," in the categories indicated; the remainder of the recipes from this cookbook will soon be added.

The fourth edition of "Recipes of Italian Cookery" translated and arranged by Maria Gironci was published in 1900 by Gaskill & Webb in London, England. The second edition as noted in openlibrary.org (no ebook is yet available) was published in 1892. www.archive.org does not yet have the book on its website. Any book published prior to 1923 is automatically in the public domain; anyone can reprint them.... Maria Gironci notes in her introduction to the 1900 edition: "From several Italian cookery books and manuscripts I have selected some of the least expensive and complicated recipes, which I have endeavoured to make easy to carry out. The English cookery is good, but somewhat montonous, and at times too substantial. Attention has lately been drawn to the Italian cookery, and in Mr. Montague [Mattieu] Williams' valuable book on the "Chemistry of Cook [Cookery]," mention is made of the want of Italian recipes, especially those with cheese, of which many will be found in this book. Maccaroni is now much more used in England by all classes, and compliants are made of the lack of recipes for cooking it; these will also be found in this book. The origin of maccaroni dates back to one of the old kings of Naples, who constantly taxed the inventive powers of his cook. One day a dish was put on the king's table of which he highly approved, and upon enquiring of the cook and the expense of the new dish, the man mentioned a sum which in those days was thought high, therupon the king exclaimed, "Buoni, maccaroni," "Good, but very dear," hence the name of maccaroni or maccheroni. The stoves now in use facilitating the regulation of the heat required for the various dishes, renders cooking easy. It may also be hoped that in the near future cooking by electricity will be within the means of many, and will lead to the greater variety of light dishes in which English cookery has hitherto been deficient. I conclude with the old Italian proverb. "Chi mangia bene, dorme bene/Who eats well, sleeps well." Maria Gironci.
