GUINAND, J.-A.- D.

L'Indicateur utile. Payerne : Aigroz, 1846.

Première et unique édition de ce curieux manuel romand, réputé introuvable : seuls deux autres exemplaires sont recensés en institutions publiques (bibliothèque nationale de Berne, bibliothèque de Neuchâtel).



La production de livres culinaires en Suisse romande se borne essentiellement pour le XIXe siècle à un seul autre ouvrage qui est une réimpression de La Cuisinière bourgeoise (Genève, 1798) ; La Bonne cuisinière bourgeoise (Berne, 1853) étant traduite de l'allemand. Si les quelque 270 recettes du Guinand fleurent bon le terroir helvète, elles relèvent toutefois du fonds commun de la cuisine française. La provenance romande ne se trahit que dans le choix de vins proposés : de l'Yvorne pour accompagner les escalopes de lièvre et du Neuchâtel rouge avec le canard rôti. L'illustration offre 13 planches lithographiées. Parmi elles, 24 figures disposées sur 8 planches concernent l'Art de trancher : tête, poitrine et longe de veau ; gigot, épaule et poitrine de mouton ; hure et jambon de porc ; cochon de lait, poule bouillie, pigeon ; poulet, chapon, dinde, oie et canard ; gigot de cerf, lièvre et truite. 5 planches sont consacrées à la Manière de servir à table, figurant un repas “à la française” où les mets sont servis tous en même temps à l'occasion de trois services. Schlup, Menus propos gastronomiques et littéraires des Lumières à la Belle Époque. Neuchâtel, 2004, p. 287.



In-12 (198 x 128 mm). Illustré de 13 planches hors texte (manque le feuillet blanc précédant le faux-titre, trois premiers feuillets brunis, feuillets 162 et 163 en fac similé, déchirure en coin supérieur aux feuillets 142 et 183, taches et piqûres éparses). Reliure de l'époque : cartonnage à la Bradel, dos muet (plats, dos et charnières frottées).



First and unique edition of this very scarce swiss manual: only 2 other copies are known in public institutions.
