This chapter discusses the gentlewomen's practice of creating and collecting medicinal recipes. It looks at the procedures for making a remedy, which constituted the basis of women's pharmaceutical outlook. This chapter also views recipes as a source for medical knowledge. It argues that a medicinal recipe was not necessarily a remedy.
