The oldest recipe, aka chicken stew from The Secret of Cooking: Recipes for an Easier Life in the Kitchen (page 363) by Bee Wilson

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Cooked a double quantity to be able to freeze, which led to a 45-minute veg chopping session. It delicious, even made with medium quality chicken, and cooked easily as per the description. My husband felt it was scant on meat and too many carrots. We will repeat and vary.

    This was just fine, albeit very easy. A good base idea to riff off.
