Jagd und Hege Ausbildungsbuch

Wildbiologische Informationen für den Jäger / R. R. Hofmann ; unter Mitarbeit von G. Rietschel [and others].

English manuscript book of medicinal and culinary recipes owned by Grace Carteret, 1st Countess Granville (1654-1744), with ownership inscription on the inside front cover.

The volume is closely associated with the contemporary Ann Fanshawe recipe manuscript held by the Wellcome Library (MS.7113). The Carterets and Fanshawes were family friends, as Ann Fanshawe's memoirs (<a href="http://searcharchives.bl.uk/primo_library/libweb/action/display.do?tabs=detailsTab&ct=display&fn=search&doc=IAMS032-002093082&indx=1&recIds=IAMS032-002093082&recIdxs=0&elementId=0&renderMode=poppedOut&displayMode=full&frbrVersion=&dscnt=1&frbg=&scp.scps=scope%3A%28BL%29&tab=local&dstmp=1414597102823&srt=rank&mode=Basic&dum=true&vl(freeText0)=ann+fanshawe&vid=IAMS_VU2" rel="nofollow"> British Library Add MS 41161</a>) indicate. The families' relationship is reflected in overlaps in content between the recipes in the two volumes, notably the highly unusual early recipe for ice cream at MS.8903, f.9. This is closely related to the famous ice cream recipe at MS.7113, f.158r, and appears to date to before the first English printed ice cream recipe in Mrs. Mary Eale's Receipts (London 1718).

The recipes are undated but the majority are written in a single fair hand dating from the mid to late 17th century, with additional recipes added or inserted in a wide variety of hands dating to around the mid 18th century. There is a clue to dating in the record of butter salting days for June-November 1662 entered at ff.4-5. Given that part of the butter salting record is inserted into gaps in the fair hand recipe text, it seems likely that the former was added into the volume after or at the same time as the initial recipes were entered.

There is a list of apothecary's weights and measures on the inside front cover.

The recipes are arranged as follows:

In the original hand: 
Creams, syllabubs, cream cheeses, ff.5-19 
Preserves, dried fruits, syrups, ff.24-36 
Wines and ales, ff.37-41 
Fish, meat, poultry, game, ff.43-57 (including recipes in later hands at ff.55-57) 
Medicinal recipes, ff.58-69 (including recipes in later hands throughout) 
Pickles, ff.70-71

In mixed later hands: 
Medicinal recipes (interpersed with a few culinary recipes), ff.72-83 
Culinary recipes (interpersed with a few medicinal recipes), ff.84-106

The volume does not contain an integral index or contents list. We are grateful to Gwenneth Heyking of the Herb Society for transcribing the recipe titles as follows:
