About This Book

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.

DEVILLED TOMATOES

Cut in half and broil three or four nice solid tomatoes, and serve them with a sauce made as follows: Take the yolks of 4 hard-boiled eggs and crush them with a fork, add to them a scant teaspoon of dry mustard, 1 heaping saltspoon of salt, and several shakes of paprika, or a dash of cayenne pepper; mix these dry ingredients well together, and then add to them 5 tablespoons of melted butter, 2 tablespoons of vinegar or lemon juice, and heat in a double boiler; when it begins to thicken remove from the fire and stir in 1 well-beaten egg. Chop the whites of the boiled eggs, and put with them 2 teaspoons of chopped parsley, and decorate the centre of each broiled tomato with this before serving.
