This time, our historical housewife Iris is serving bean fritters. The vegetarian dish comes from the little war cookbook, a guide to economical cooking. It was compiled by the women's rights activist, social worker and writer Henriette Fürth on behalf of the food commission of the city of Frankfurt am Main in 1915. The booklet was intended to show housewives how they could follow their usual taste and cook despite all the restrictions in wartime.
