About This Book

This manual provides practical guidance for building and using fireless cookers and other insulated appliances such as portable insulating pails and refrigerating boxes, explains measuring, proportions, seasoning, and offers tables and menus. It describes principles of retained-heat cookery, suggests constructions and an insulated oven, and addresses household and institutional use, including recipes scaled for small institutions and sick diets. The volume collects some 250 tested recipes—soups, meats, poultry, vegetables, steamed breads and puddings, fruits, and miscellaneous dishes—plus large-quantity instructions, menus, and an appendix of experiments and chemical notes to clarify scientific principles and assure reliable results.
