Sumario:"In Tasteful Domesticity, Sarah Walden demonstrates how women used the cookbook as a rhetorical space. Taste discourse engages cultural values as well a physical constraints, and thus serves as a bridge across the contested space of the self and the body, particularly for women in the nineteenth century.
