Autor

Alice Bradley (1875-1946) was a distinguished figure in the culinary world, recognized for her expertise in the art of cooking and her contributions to domestic science literature. A graduate of the Boston Cooking School, where the famous Fannie Farmer served as principal, Bradley went on to become the principal of Miss Farmer's School of Cookery in 1909. In her role, she focused on teaching the principles of nutrition, meal planning, and food preparation to her students, empowering homemakers with practical and sophisticated techniques for managing their kitchens. Bradley authored the book 'For Luncheon and Supper Guests' (1923), which showcased her culinarian finesse, featuring a collection of recipes that were designed for smaller, less formal meals, challenging the more elaborate conventions of dinner entertaining common to the era. Her particular style balanced simplicity with elegance, allowing for dishes that were both approachable and appetizing. The book highlighted Bradley's dedication to innovative recipes that home cooks could easily replicate. Alice Bradley's influence extended beyond her school as she became a regular presence in American homes through her cooking editor role at 'Woman's Home Companion' and her radio show 'Cooking School of the Air,' broadcast on NBC, affirming her impact on American cuisine and household cooking practices. She left a legacy of culinary education that has informed the practices of generations of home cooks and professional chefs alike.
