About This Book

A practical vegetarian cookery manual paired with an ethical argument for a bloodless diet, opening with scriptural and moral appeals and a brief preface explaining its purpose. It compiles step-by-step recipes and cooking techniques for breakfasts, eggs, sauces, jellies, breads, desserts, and complete menus, with measurements, timings, and tips for digestibility and economy. The text offers suggested substitutions for animal products, household and kitchen advice, and occasional nutritional commentary, all aimed at helping readers prepare nourishing, inexpensive meals while embracing compassionate dietary choices.
