About This Book

A practical manual explains the chemical and physiological principles behind diet and cookery and translates them into methods for preparing wholesome, digestible, and attractive food. It surveys the properties and elements of common foods, digestion and hygiene, proper combinations and proportions, and the role of condiments and variety. It provides science-based guidance on fuels, cooking methods, utensils, kitchen arrangement, and food safety, then applies those principles to numerous recipes and menus, with particular attention to cereals, grains, and simple, healthful preparations for both institutional and household use.

The expense of the menus given will vary somewhat with the locality and the existing market prices. The following analysis of several similar bills of fare used in widely different localities will serve to show something of the average cost. The first of these were taken at random from the daily menus, during the month of January, of a Michigan family of seventeen persons, grown persons and hearty, growing children, none younger than six years. In the estimates made of the cost of material, wherever fractions occurred, the next higher whole number was taken. No butter was used, a small pitcher of cream for each individual supplying its place. The milk used for cooking was not counted, since in this case most of the cream had been removed, and its cost reckoned at the entire cost of the milk itself, or twenty cents a quart, allowing four quarts of milk at five cents a quart for one quart of cream.
