About This Book

A practical household cookbook offering concise, detailed recipes and step-by-step directions for a broad range of fare, including soups, fish, meats and poultry, vegetables, sauces, pickles, pastries, desserts, and tea cakes, along with measurement tables and preservation methods. Instructions assume common kitchen utensils and emphasize clarity, repetition of key steps, and domestic economy to make preparations accessible to ordinary cooks. Special attention is given to dishes suited for the sick or convalescent and to straightforward American adaptations of traditional recipes, prioritizing usable technique and exact procedures over culinary theory.
