Description
On the blackboard is a recipe for rice pudding and on the wall is a quote from John Ruskin: “Cookery means the knowledge of Medea and of Circe and of Helen and of the Queen of Sheba. It means the knowledge of all herbs and fruits and balms and spices, and all that is healing and sweet in the fields and groves and savory in meats. It means carefulness and inventiveness and willingness and readiness of appliances. It means the economy of your grandmothers and the science of the modern chemist; it means much testing and no wasting; it means English thoroughness and French art and Arabian hospitality; and, in fine, it means that you are to be perfectly and always ladies (loaf givers) and are to see that everybody has something nice to eat.”
The Educational Alliance was founded on New York's Lower East Side in 1889 as a settlement house to serve East European Jewish immigrants.
