The Cooking Manual of Practical Directions for Economical Every-Day Cookery (Classic Reprint)

This book is intended for the use of those housekeepers and cooks who wish to know how to make the most wholesome and palatable dishes at the least possible cost. I ji cookery this fact should be remembered above all others; a good cook never WASTES. It is her pride to make the most of everything in the shape of food entrusted to her care ;and her pleasure to serve it in the most appetizing form. In no other way can she prove her excellence ;for poor cooks are always wasteful and extravagant. Housekeepers can safely make this book a guide for those of their cooks who arc willing to learn new and good methods of cooking familiar foods. Lest it should be said that undue preference is given to foreign ways of cooking, the author begs her readers to remember how much of the success of any dish depends upon its taste; if it is well-flavored, and palatably seasoned, the eaters of it do not closely criticise its component parts.
