Welcome to FabulousFusionFood's Francatelli Adams' Illustrations page — This page gives you all the images from the Chapter: Adams' Illustrations for Kitchen Implements from Charles Elmé Francatelli's 1861 volume, The Cook's Guide and Housekeeper's & Butler's Assistant. Each recipe is given here in its original form, with a link underneath to the modern redaction, should you wish to replicate it. This is the first time that Francatelli's book has been made available in its entirety on the internet. Enjoy...

The text presented here is derived directly from Francatelli's book and redacted specifically for this website. Please do not copy or use the content of these pages without first gaining permission.

The final chapters of Francatelli's cookbook contain advertisements. One of these represents images for the wares of William S. Adams and Son, Ironmongers of Haymarket. These images are referred to frequently in the recipe texts and will give you a good indication of typical Victorian kitchen implements.
