A practical vegetarian cookery manual combines an ethical introduction arguing for abstaining from animal flesh with hands-on household guidance and organized recipes for meatless fare. It offers kitchen and dining-room advice, suggestive comments, and recipe sections covering soups, vegetables and combinations, nut dishes, rice and macaroni, croquettes, timbales and patties, sauces, eggs, cheese, salads, savouries, sandwiches, pastry, breads and desserts, followed by menus and an index. The recipes avoid mimicking meat and emphasize palatable preparation of unadulterated plant-based ingredients, with tips on cooking technique, serving, and menu planning to sustain compassionate, practical vegetarian living.
Having boiled or steamed the required number of potatoes, peel them as expeditiously as possible and break them up in a hot saucepan; mash and then beat them vigorously with a wooden spoon or a fork, add a generous piece of butter, dredge with salt and a little pepper, and beat them until they are light; then moisten slightly with a very little hot milk or cream, beat them for a moment more, and serve very hot.
