Bradshaw's valuable family jewel. Being a store-house of such curious matters as all ought to be acquainted with, who intend to spend their lives either pleasant or profitable. Containing all that relates to confectionary, cookery, pastry, preserving, pickling, cordials, made wines, brewing, &c. with a great number of other necessary articles not to be met with in any other book: particularly, an excellent method for the management of a beer-cellar: how to keep ale or beer always exceeding fine; and how to restore four beer to its first perfection; which article has been of the utmost service to the purchasers of this book. Likewise, an excellent method to preserve a constant stock of yeast, even in the most scarce seasons. In this book is likewise inserted Mons. Millien's method of preserving metals from rust, such as guns, grates, candle-sticks, &c. for the discovery of which the Royal Academy of Paris gave him 10,000 l. By Mrs. Penelope Bradshaw.
