Description: 1912 Antique Swedish Cookbook Hemmets Kokbok. The Home Cookbook. Stockholm, Sweden. Prepared by the Vocational School for Household Economics in Uppsala. Vol 6. Hardcover with antique paper cover. An extraordinary find, this beautiful antique cookbook mainly contains what could be called good home cooking, but also some finer, and of course more expensive, dishes for more festive occasions. The book provides a fascinating introduction to the food and customs of Sweden. A perfect gift for historians and lovers of gastronomy. It was prepared by the Vocational School for Household Economics in Uppsala. “Uppsala enskilda läroverk” (Uppsala Private School) was a women’s vocational school established in 1892 on the initiative of professors J. A. Lundell and Adolf Noreen. In 1895 its school kitchen college was granted independent status under the name of Fackskolan för huslig ekonomi (Vocational School for Household Economics). When the vocational school came under governmental control in 1961 it was named Seminariet för huslig utbildning (College for Household Education), and there have been many other changes since then.
