Demonstration. Spend the evening with our CM Cooking School Team, who will walk you through some of Fannie Farmer’s timeless recipes from her 1896 Boston Cooking School cookbook. Bakers understand the importance of precise recipe measurements in order to achieve a consistent desired result and you will enjoy some of the first recipes with standardized measurement from Fannie’s collection paired with a glass of wine. ABOUT FANNIE FARMER Fannie Farmer (1857-1915) came to cooking due to a stroke at the age of sixteen that forced her to remain homebound for over a decade. She took up cooking so thoroughly that she turned her mother’s home into a boardinghouse known for its uncommonly delicious meals. Once she was able to walk again, Farmer attended the Boston Cooking School in the late 1880’s and learned to approach cooking as a domestic science. The cookbook she eventually published under the school’s name in 1896 became unexpectedly famous, thanks to its system of standardized measuring vessels and level measurements. For ages 21 & up.
