For those who would continue to serve their +households well, and whose allowance for food has not kept pace with +prices, there is only one alternative, and that is, to use more of the +cheaper foods, and to prepare and combine them so skilfully that economy +shall not be a hardship. Good meals depend not so much upon expensive +material as upon care and good judgment in the use of ordinary material. +The time-worn boarding-house jokes about prunes and hash mean simply +that these foods, in themselves excellent, are poorly prepared and too +frequently served. + +It is the plan of this book to include a variety of (1) recipes which +require only a small amount of meat; (2) recipes for vegetable dishes +which can take the place of meat; (3) recipes for the economical use of +cereals, dairy products, and other common inexpensive foods; (4) recipes +for breads, cakes, and desserts requiring only a small amount of butter +and eggs; and (5) recipes for a few relishes, condiments, and other +accessories which lend variety and interest. The General Suggestions for +Economy (Chapter I) are not all new, but are liable, through disuse, to +be forgotten by the present generation. Spasmodic economy counts for +little in the long run; only systematic and continued watchfulness is +really worth while. + +Economy, however, ought not to necessitate the total elimination of +one's favorite cuts of steak, nor all of the little luxuries, because by +the skilful planning of the majority of the meals the occasional use of +these luxuries can be made possible. + +This book is not intended as a complete guide to cookery; it presupposes +an elementary knowledge of the care and preparation of food. + +The study of Tables D and E in the Appendix is especially recommended as +an aid to the better understanding of food values. + + M.

Many +books are published on these subjects, but from the government +publications alone (see page 255) an excellent working knowledge may be +obtained. Only the merest outline can be given here, and this should be +supplemented by further reading. + +Briefly stated, food is divided into three chief classes:[1] +(1) _Protein_, which builds and repairs the tissues.[2] It is furnished +chiefly by meats, fish, cheese, milk, eggs, cereals, and legumes. +(2) _Fats_, which furnish heat and energy, but are chiefly valuable for +storing a reserve supply of fat in the body. They are furnished largely +by butter, cream, olive and similar vegetable oils, bacon and other fat +meats. (3) _Carbohydrates_, which furnish heat and energy. They are +supplied chiefly by potatoes and other vegetables, cereals, fruits, and +sugars. + +People who are eating the proper amount and kind of food should +approximate the normal weight[3] for their sex, age, and height. For the +proper maintenance of the body, a man of average height and weight, of +sedentary life,[4] requires daily food which will yield about 2,500 +calories;[5] a woman of average height and weight, about 2,300 calories +(more or less according to activity). Children between two and five +years require from 1,200 to 1,400 calories; between five and ten years, +from 1,400 to 1,900 calories; and from ten to fourteen years, from 1,900 +to 2,500 calories. Girls between fourteen and seventeen years require +from 2,200 to 2,600 calories; and boys between fourteen and seventeen +years, from 2,500 to 3,000 calories. Of the total number of calories +furnished ten per cent. should be protein, approximately 30 per cent. +fat, and 60 per cent. carbohydrates. + +Before planning meals the consideration of these caloric requirements +and the study of the "Caloric Value of Average Portions of Food" (Table +D, page 245) and of the "Fuel Value of Raw Materials" (Table E, page +250) will help in the selection of foods to yield approximately the +desired amount of nutrition. It is not necessary or desirable that the +exact amount of each class of foods should be reckoned daily; but by the +general study of foods and their nutritive value, and the food +requirements of the body, which vary with age, sex, and conditions, the +housekeeper may serve her family with the kinds and amount of food best +suited to their needs. She should plan to use in a week as large a +variety of food as possible, and to avoid an excess of any one class. +With a definite idea of the needs of the family, she should take account +of the stock in the ice-box and pantry, and see that every bit of food +is utilized to advantage. Meals should be planned in detail at least one +day in advance, and, if possible, outlined for several days ahead; +though these plans must, of course, be varied slightly, at times, +according to the amount of left-over material and the exigencies of +supply and demand. Each day's programme should be plainly written; any +special recipes to be used noted; and a list made of supplies to be +ordered. To have the meals planned well in advance and the order list +ready saves a deal of nervous energy, time, and money. + + +MARKETING + +If possible, attend personally to your marketing and consider carefully +the quality, quantity, and cost of your purchases in relation to the +needs of your purse and your household. Ask for what you want, and try +hard to get it; but in trying to buy supplies at lowest prices be sure +that the time and nervous energy spent are not out of proportion to the +amount of money saved. + + +MEAT + +In considering the price of meat, the amount of bone, fat, gristle, and +so forth should be taken into account. Many of the coarser and cheaper +parts contain as much nutriment as the more expensive cuts, and can, by +proper cooking, be made fully as palatable. See that every bit of +left-over meat is used to advantage and in a variety of ways; the rinds +of bacon and salt pork when cooked with spinach or other greens, or in +soups of peas or beans, add both flavor and richness. + + +THE STOCK POT + +All trimmings and bones, both cooked and uncooked, and any left-over +bits of meat or gravy that are not needed for other dishes, should be +put into the stock pot, covered with cold water, and _simmered_ (_not +boiled_) with soup vegetables and savory herbs for three or four hours. +Almost any left-over vegetable can be added, including macaroni, rice, +and the scrapings of the cereal cooker. If the family is small, the +cereal cooker itself makes an excellent stock pot: to the remnants of +breakfast cereal, add any soup material at hand; cover with cold water; +cook slowly; strain; and, if necessary, add one or two bouillon cubes, +and a few drops of kitchen bouquet. When soup stock is lacking in +richness a small amount of gelatine improves the quality. + +The water in which vegetables, macaroni, rice, or any meats, either +fresh or salt, are cooked contains valuable mineral matter as well as +flavor, and should be added wholly or in part to the stock pot. Order +corned meats lightly salted so that all of the stock may be used. Be +sure that all fat is removed from soup stock before using. Do not serve +greasy soups. When stock must be used before the fat has had time to +harden, skim off as much as possible, and remove what remains with clean +blotting paper, or a lump of ice wrapped in cheesecloth. + + +FISH + +Fresh fish is offered in variety at all seasons of the year, and is a +valuable and comparatively inexpensive food; salted and smoked fish +contain much protein in a concentrated form; the canned varieties are +important, too, especially for the emergency shelf, as they furnish a +substantial, inexpensive food which can be served in many ways at short +notice. + + +GROCERIES + +Groceries in sealed packages are, as a rule, slightly more expensive +than those sold in bulk; but they are cleaner, often fresher, and more +convenient to store and use. + +BUTTER AND OTHER SHORTENING + +To the taste of the average person, there is no real equivalent for the +flavor of fine creamery butter, but, for cooking, excellent results may +be obtained by the use of cheaper shortening, beginning with the common +household fats which are so often discarded. All drippings from the +roasts and fat from boiled meats should be carefully strained and saved; +beef and chicken fat may be used in many recipes, including those for +cookies, cakes, meat sauces, soups, and made dishes; bacon fat is +excellent for corn cake, meat sauces, and soups of peas, beans, or +lentils; sausage fat may be used for gingerbread, cookies, poultry +stuffing, and also for frying potatoes and other vegetables, for in +these the spicy flavoring is not objectionable. Both bacon and sausage +fat and that from soup stock are useful for basting lean roasts, fish, +or meat loaf. Any surplus fat, including that of lamb and mutton, should +be clarified and added to that in the frying kettle. Fat which cannot +be utilized for cooking should be made into kitchen soap. + + +COOKING FATS--OILS + +There are many excellent brands of wholesome cooking fats and oils on +the market, including peanut, corn, and cottonseed oil, and compound +vegetable fats. Almost any of these costs less than butter. + + +OLEOMARGARINE + +The best oleomargarine is wholesome and economical, and much to be +preferred to inferior grades of butter. + + +MILK + +Milk, even at present prices, gives good return in food value. +Unsweetened evaporated milk, which is absolutely sterile and clean, +costs no more, and in some places costs less, than fresh milk, and can +be used to advantage to supplement the supply. Because of its +consistency it is an excellent substitute for cream in frozen desserts. + + +CREAM + +When eggs are relatively cheaper than cream, the stiffly beaten white of +an egg may be used to advantage to mix with beaten cream. Thin cream +whipped with a whip churn is lighter and less expensive than heavy cream +beaten. + + +EGGS + +Unless the winter's supply of eggs has been preserved in water glass, +guaranteed cold storage eggs will be found satisfactory, and much +cheaper than hennery eggs. Only enough for a few days should be bought +at a time, however, and they should be kept in a cold place until used. +Wash eggs before breaking, and save the shells for clearing boiled +coffee, soup, and aspic. For coating croquettes, dilute each beaten egg +with one-fourth cup of water or one-third cup of milk; cover unused +yolks with water to prevent drying, and pour off water before using. +Have both yolk and white of egg cold, so that they may be beaten more +quickly; add a pinch of salt to whites of eggs which are to be beaten +stiff, and beat in a current of air. Soft-boiled or dropped eggs not +used at table should be put back in boiling water, cooked hard, and used +for garnishing, egg sauce, etc. + + +CHEESE + +Cheese is nutritious and, even at present prices, economical, as it +contains a large proportion of protein in concentrated form. It can be +successfully combined with many other foods, and every left-over bit +should be so used; when partly dry it should be put through the food +chopper, using a fine cutter; when very dry it should be grated and used +in sauces, soufflés, soups, and many other dishes. Cheese is more +readily digested if a pinch of baking soda is cooked with it. To keep +cheese moist and fresh, brush the cut surface with melted paraffin. Save +left-over Welsh rarebit for sandwich filling. The shells of Edam or +pineapple cheeses should not be thrown away, but be filled with creamed +macaroni, spaghetti, or rice, covered with crumbs, and baked in a hot +oven. + + +FRESH VEGETABLES + +A variety of vegetables should be served daily, and those which contain +a large amount of protein, such as beans, lentils, and peas, should be +used not only as an accompaniment to meat, but, in combination with +other vegetables, sauces, bacon or other fats, as the substantial dish +of the meal. + + +DRIED VEGETABLES + +Dried vegetables should be soaked in cold water for twelve hours or +longer, and then cooked slowly until tender; dried julienne should be +soaked for twenty-four hours before cooking. + + +MACARONI, NOODLES, RICE, CEREALS + +Macaroni, noodles and similar pastas, rice, and the cereals furnish much +nutriment at low cost; oatmeal and corn meal are among our cheapest +foods. + +Ready cooked cereals, though they are convenient and give variety to the +diet, are more expensive than raw cereals well cooked; not only do they +yield less food value, but, being dry, they require more cream or milk +to make them palatable. + + +LEFT-OVER VEGETABLES + +Left-over vegetables and cereals, even in small quantities, should be +saved for use in entrées, desserts, salads, sauces, and soups. Celery +tops should be saved for flavoring and garnishing, the root stalk +chopped and added to the stock pot, and the outside stalks stewed, +creamed, or used for cream soup. The outside leaves of lettuce should be +shredded for salad, or, for any large quantity, cooked the same as +spinach. + + +CANNED VEGETABLES + +The flavor of canned vegetables is improved if, before being cooked, +they are rinsed with cold water and exposed to the air. Parsley and +chives may be kept growing in pots in the kitchen window to be used as +needed. + + +SALADS + +Salads should be freely used at all seasons, and be made light or +nourishing according to the foods served with them. They offer an +opportunity to the housekeeper to exercise her ingenuity in combining +various vegetables, meats, and fruits, especially left-over bits. Crisp +white cabbage, shredded, may be used in place of celery. + + +SALAD DRESSINGS + +Salad dressings need not necessarily be made of olive oil, for there are +other good and less expensive vegetable oils well worth using, and many +of the cooked salad dressings without oil are excellent. + + +BREAD + +Various kinds of bread should be freely used, especially whole wheat and +other cereal breads, and those containing raisins, dates, and prunes. +Watch the bread-box, and see that every bit of bread is used in some +way; the unused crusts should be dried, rolled, sifted, and kept in a +covered jar for stuffing, crumbing croquettes, brown bread, puddings, or +other dishes in which the color is not objectionable; cold toast or cut +slices should be made into croutons, or used for canapés or French +toast; other pieces should be used for croustades, or made into crumbs, +both coarse and fine, for use in fondues, griddle cakes, omelets, +sauces, and soups. Bits of crackers should be dried, rolled, and used +the same as bread crumbs. + +None of the recipes for cake require more than two eggs; many, only one; +and some, none at all. Water may always be used in place of milk, and +any clean, fresh shortening may be substituted for butter, especially in +the recipes which include molasses and spices. These cakes will not keep +moist like richer cakes, however, and should be used soon after making. + +Slices of stale cake and crumbs should be utilized in making other +desserts in combination with custards, ices, preserves, etc. + + +BAKING POWDER + +Do not use more baking powder than is necessary for good results; two +_level_ teaspoons to each cup of flour is the usual allowance, but one +and one-half teaspoons each to each cup will be sufficient if the +muffins, biscuits, or cake are quickly and lightly handled and properly +baked. + + +FLAVORING EXTRACTS + +When volatile flavoring extracts are used in cake, much of their +strength is wasted during baking; grated rind or spices could well be +used in their place, or only the icing or filling flavored. All +desserts, whenever practicable, should be flavored when cold. + + +COLORING + +The small package of red coloring which comes with gelatine is useful +for coloring cakes, icings, and other desserts as well as jellies. + + +FRUITS + +Fruits, either fresh, dried, or preserved, should be served at least +once a day; dried fruits, such as apricots, peaches, and prunes, should +be soaked in cold water for twelve hours or longer and then cooked +slowly until tender. Raisins, dates, and figs yield a large food value +at comparatively low cost. Bananas, which contain more nutriment than +most fresh fruits, should be used for salads or desserts when the other +courses are light. In cooking acid fruits, such as cranberries, plums, +and cherries, less sugar is required if added after cooking. Parings and +cores from quinces and apples can be made into excellent jelly; the +rinds of watermelons are the foundation of a delicious sweet pickle; +orange and grape fruit peel, when candied, are well worth the trouble of +making. Surplus orange, lemon, and grape fruit peels, when dried, are +not only useful for flavoring, but make an interesting and aromatic fuel +for the fire-place; the nut meat found in prune stones tastes much like +that of bitter almonds and can be used in place of them. + +When making jelly remember that the pulp of the fruit after the juice +has dripped from it may be made into excellent marmalade: cover with +water, heat to boiling point, press through a sieve, add three-quarters +of the amount of sugar, and cook until thick. + + +CANDIES + +In spite of its cost, candy is now classed by many with the necessities +rather than with the luxuries. After a little practice even the most +elaborate candies can be successfully made at home, and the difference +between the cost of a pound of the best ready-made candy and the cost of +the raw materials is astonishing. For those who can spare the time, +candy-making will prove both fascinating and economical. Recipes for a +few after-dinner candies are given. + + +CONDIMENTS + +A small supply of condiments and relishes, including kitchen bouquet, +ketchup, and sweet herbs, and one or two table sauces, should be kept in +stock, as they make possible a greater variety of flavors. Many +home-made sauces and relishes can be easily and quickly prepared and are +usually much cheaper than the ready-made varieties. + + +CANDLE STUBS + +Candle stubs should be melted, strained through cheesecloth, and used +for sealing ketchup, jellies, and preserves. + + +GARNISHINGS + +Any dish, attractively garnished and served, pleases the eye, stimulates +the appetite, and often lifts a simple meal out of the commonplace. +Parsley, mint, celery tops, red and green peppers, olives, pickles, +capers, cooked beets and carrots, hard-cooked egg, lemon cut in various +shapes, nuts, cherries, and other small fruits are all effective if not +too lavishly used. + + +UTENSILS + +A reasonable equipment of kitchen utensils and a convenient, systematic +arrangement of them will save time and strength. Kitchen scales are +almost indispensable, and a cooking thermometer eliminates guesswork, +especially in boiling sugar and heating fat for frying. Pans, molds, and +cutters of various shapes prevent monotony; suitable baking dishes and +covered casserole dishes simplify both cooking and serving; and food +cooked or served in individual dishes is often more attractive. When +the cogs of the egg beater slip, do not discard it, but tighten the +rivet; keep knives well sharpened. Cream jars, jugs, bottles, or any +other containers for which a charge is made, should be promptly returned +to be credited. + + +FUEL + +Do not waste fuel; concentrate your cooking; when a hot oven is needed +for roasting meat or baking bread, plan to cook at the same time other +things which require a high temperature; potatoes can be cooked in the +pan with the meat; other vegetables and fruits can be cooked in the +oven; and if a coal fire is used, a variety of food can be cooked in a +steamer on top of the range without extra fuel. + +Have the ashes sifted and save the _cinders_, which yield a quick top +heat. + +Economize _gas_ by using the minimum amount necessary to keep food +cooking at the desired temperature. When the boiling point is reached a +small supply of gas will maintain the temperature. + +_Fireless cookers_ save much fuel and unnecessary heat, and are +especially useful for any food which requires long, slow cooking, or for +those foods of strong odor which so often scent up the whole house. + +FOOTNOTES: + +[1] Water and mineral salts are also necessary for the proper +maintenance of the body, but these are yielded chiefly in combination +with the other foods. + +[2] Protein can also furnish energy, but this is more easily and cheaply +supplied by the fats and carbohydrates. + +[3] See Table F, page 253. + +[4] People of sedentary life require daily approximately sixteen +calories for each pound of their weight. So if the normal weight of such +persons is multiplied by sixteen, the result will be the approximate +number of calories needed. + +[5] A Calorie is the amount of heat required to raise one kilogram of +water 1° Centigrade or one pound of water 4° Fahrenheit. + + + + +SPECIAL NOTICE + + +All ingredients in these recipes should be measured level, and the +standard teaspoon, tablespoon, and half-pint measuring cup should be +used. + +Unless otherwise stated, one apple, onion, orange, etc., means one of +medium size. + +Sift flour before measuring, and fill cup lightly. Use pastry flour, +unless otherwise directed, for thickening soups and sauces, and in all +recipes where baking powder is used; use bread flour in all recipes +where yeast is used. + +The majority of these recipes are planned to serve four persons; those +for chowders and other dishes which form the substantial part of the +meal are sufficient for second helpings; those for cakes, muffins, and +other breads are large enough to be served more than once. + + + + +CHAPTER II + +COMMON WAYS OF COOKING FOOD + + +_Baking_ is cooking in confined heat in the oven. Examples: bread, cake, +meat. This method when applied to meat is commonly called roasting. +Before baking, see that the oven is clean and heated to the desired +temperature. + +_Boiling_ is cooking by immersion in water at 212° F. Examples: +potatoes, cabbage, macaroni. + +_Braising_ is a combination of stewing on the top of the range, and +baking in the oven, with or without vegetables. Examples: tough meats, +fowl, whole liver. + +_Broiling or Grilling_ is cooking over or under direct heat, as over +glowing coals or under a gas flame. Examples: steak, chops. + +_Fricasseeing_ is commonly a combination of stewing and sautéing. +Examples: fowl, forequarter of lamb or veal. + +_Frying_ is cooking by immersion in hot deep fat. Examples: doughnuts, +croquettes. + +_Pan-baking or Pan-broiling_ is cooking in a lightly greased or +ungreased hot frying pan or griddle. Examples: steak, English muffins, +griddle cakes. + +_Pot Roasting_ is cooking in an iron kettle or earthen pot in a small +amount of water, after meat has been quickly browned in a small amount +of fat in the frying pan or kettle. Cook slowly until very tender, with +or without vegetables. + +_Roasting_ is cooking before an open fire. This method is seldom used in +small households, although the baking of meats is commonly called +roasting. + +_Sautéing_ is cooking in a small amount of fat in a shallow pan on top +of range. Examples: sliced fish, meat, potatoes, eggs. + +_Simmering_ is cooking in liquid at 185° F. The bubbles should always be +below the surface. Examples: ham, corned beef, soups. + +_Steaming._ _Dry Steaming_ is cooking by heat of steam, as in double +boiler or tin, over or surrounded by boiling water. Examples: rice, +brown bread. _Moist Steaming_ is cooking by direct contact with steam as +in a steamer or colander, over boiling water, closely covered. Examples: +fowl, puddings, dumplings. + +_Stewing_ is cooking slowly in a small amount of water (about 160° F.) +until food is very tender. Examples: beef, lamb, vegetables. + + + + +CHAPTER III + +APPETIZERS AND RELISHES + + +1.--COCKTAIL SAUCE + + 1/4 cup tomato ketchup 1/2 teaspoon salt + 1 tablespoon bottled horseradish 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce + 2 tablespoons vinegar Dash of cayenne + +Mix, and serve in four small glasses or lemon shells, with six small +clams or oysters in each.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive +Foundation + +The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit +501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the +state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal +Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification +number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at +https://pglaf.org/fundraising.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. diff --git a/34509-8.zip b/34509-8.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..2324257 --- /dev/null +++ b/34509-8.zip diff --git a/34509-h.zip b/34509-h.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..ff2dc5d --- /dev/null +++ b/34509-h.zip diff --git a/34509-h/34509-h.htm b/34509-h/34509-h.htm new file mode 100644 index 0000000..0a1ed2f --- /dev/null +++ b/34509-h/34509-h.htm @@ -0,0 +1,12156 @@ +<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" + "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> + +<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> + <head> + <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=iso-8859-1" /> + <title> + The Project Gutenberg eBook of Better Meals For Less Money, by Mary Green. + </title> + <style type="text/css"> +/*<![CDATA[ XML blockout */ +<!-- + p { margin-top: .75em; + text-align: justify; + margin-bottom: .75em; + } + h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6 { + text-align: center; /* all headings centered */ + clear: both; + } + hr { width: 33%; + margin-top: 2em; + margin-bottom: 2em; + margin-left: auto; + margin-right: auto; + clear: both; + } + + table {margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;} + + body{margin-left: 10%; + margin-right: 10%; + } + + .pagenum { /* uncomment the next line for invisible page numbers */ + /* visibility: hidden; */ + position: absolute; + left: 92%; + font-size: smaller; + text-align: right; + } /* page numbers */ + + .blockquot{margin-left: 5%; margin-right: 10%;} + + .center {text-align: center;} + .smcap {font-variant: small-caps;} + + .figcenter {margin: auto; text-align: center;} + + .footnotes {border: dashed 1px;} + .footnote {margin-left: 10%; margin-right: 10%; font-size: 0.9em;} + .fnanchor {vertical-align: super; font-size: .8em; text-decoration: none;} + + /* XML end ]]>*/ + </style> + </head> +<body> + + +<pre> + +The Project Gutenberg EBook of Better Meals for Less Money, by Mary Green + +This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with +almost no restrictions whatsoever.

For those who would continue to serve their +households well, and whose allowance for food has not kept pace with +prices, there is only one alternative, and that is, to use more of the +cheaper foods, and to prepare and combine them so skilfully that economy +shall not be a hardship. Good meals depend not so much upon expensive +material as upon care and good judgment in the use of ordinary material. +The time-worn boarding-house jokes about prunes and hash mean simply +that these foods, in themselves excellent, are poorly prepared and too +frequently served.</p> + +<p>It is the plan of this book to include a variety of (1) recipes +which require only a small amount of meat; (2) recipes for +vegetable dishes which can take the place of meat; (3) recipes for the +economical use of cereals, dairy products, and other common inexpensive +foods; (4) recipes for breads, cakes, and desserts requiring only a +small amount of butter and eggs; and (5) recipes for a few relishes, +condiments, and other accessories which lend variety and interest. The +General Suggestions for Economy (Chapter I) are not all new, but are +liable, through disuse, to be forgotten by the present generation. +Spasmodic economy counts for little in the long run; only systematic +and continued watchfulness is really worth while.</p> + +<p>Economy, however, ought not to necessitate the total elimination of +one's favorite cuts of steak, nor all of the little luxuries, because by +the skilful planning of the majority of the meals the occasional use of +these luxuries can be made possible.</p> + +<p>This book is not intended as a complete guide to cookery; it presupposes +an elementary knowledge of the care and preparation of food.</p> + +<p>The study of Tables D and E in the Appendix is especially recommended as +an aid to the better understanding of food values.</p> + +<p> +<span style="margin-left: 34em;">M.

MEALS</h4> + +<p>In order to buy, prepare, and serve food to the best possible advantage, +an elementary knowledge of the composition and nutritive value of foods, +and the necessary food requirement of the family, is essential. Many +books are published on these subjects, but from the government +publications alone (see page 255) an excellent working knowledge may be +obtained. Only the merest outline can be given here, and this should be +supplemented by further reading.</p> + +<p>Briefly stated, food is divided into three chief classes:<a name="FNanchor_1_1" id="FNanchor_1_1"></a><a href="#Footnote_1_1" class="fnanchor">[1]</a> +(1) <i>Protein</i>, which builds and repairs the tissues.<a name="FNanchor_2_2" id="FNanchor_2_2"></a><a href="#Footnote_2_2" class="fnanchor">[2]</a> It is +furnished chiefly by meats, fish, cheese, milk, eggs, cereals, and +legumes. (2) <i>Fats</i>, which furnish heat and energy, but are chiefly +valuable for storing a reserve supply of fat in the body. They are +furnished largely by butter, cream, olive and similar vegetable oils, +bacon and other fat meats. (3) <i>Carbohydrates</i>, which furnish heat and +energy. They<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_2" id="Page_2">[Pg 2]</a></span> are supplied chiefly by potatoes and other vegetables, +cereals, fruits, and sugars.</p> + +<p>People who are eating the proper amount and kind of food should +approximate the normal weight<a name="FNanchor_3_3" id="FNanchor_3_3"></a><a href="#Footnote_3_3" class="fnanchor">[3]</a> for their sex, age, and height. For the +proper maintenance of the body, a man of average height and weight, of +sedentary life,<a name="FNanchor_4_4" id="FNanchor_4_4"></a><a href="#Footnote_4_4" class="fnanchor">[4]</a> requires daily food which will yield about 2,500 +calories;<a name="FNanchor_5_5" id="FNanchor_5_5"></a><a href="#Footnote_5_5" class="fnanchor">[5]</a> a woman of average height and weight, about 2,300 calories +(more or less according to activity). Children between two and five +years require from 1,200 to 1,400 calories; between five and ten years, +from 1,400 to 1,900 calories; and from ten to fourteen years, from 1,900 +to 2,500 calories. Girls between fourteen and seventeen years require +from 2,200 to 2,600 calories; and boys between fourteen and seventeen +years, from 2,500 to 3,000 calories. Of the total number of calories +furnished ten per cent. should be protein, approximately 30 per cent. +fat, and 60 per cent. carbohydrates.</p> + +<p>Before planning meals the consideration of these caloric requirements +and the study of the "Caloric Value of Average Portions of Food" (Table +D, page 245) and of the "Fuel Value of Raw Materials" (Table E, page +250) will help in the selection of foods to yield approximately the +desired amount of nutrition. It is not necessary or desirable that the +exact amount of each class of foods should be reckoned daily; but by the +general study of foods and their nutritive value, and the food +requirements of the<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_3" id="Page_3">[Pg 3]</a></span> body, which vary with age, sex, and conditions, the +housekeeper may serve her family with the kinds and amount of food best +suited to their needs. She should plan to use in a week as large a +variety of food as possible, and to avoid an excess of any one class. +With a definite idea of the needs of the family, she should take account +of the stock in the ice-box and pantry, and see that every bit of food +is utilized to advantage. Meals should be planned in detail at least one +day in advance, and, if possible, outlined for several days ahead; +though these plans must, of course, be varied slightly, at times, +according to the amount of left-over material and the exigencies of +supply and demand. Each day's programme should be plainly written; any +special recipes to be used noted; and a list made of supplies to be +ordered. To have the meals planned well in advance and the order list +ready saves a deal of nervous energy, time, and money.</p> + +<h4>MARKETING</h4> + +<p>If possible, attend personally to your marketing and consider carefully +the quality, quantity, and cost of your purchases in relation to the +needs of your purse and your household. Ask for what you want, and try +hard to get it; but in trying to buy supplies at lowest prices be sure +that the time and nervous energy spent are not out of proportion to the +amount of money saved.</p> + +<h4>MEAT</h4> + +<p>In considering the price of meat, the amount of bone, fat, gristle, and +so forth should be taken into account. Many of the coarser and cheaper +parts contain as much<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_4" id="Page_4">[Pg 4]</a></span> nutriment as the more expensive cuts, and can, by +proper cooking, be made fully as palatable. See that every bit of +left-over meat is used to advantage and in a variety of ways; the rinds +of bacon and salt pork when cooked with spinach or other greens, or in +soups of peas or beans, add both flavor and richness.</p> + +<h4>THE STOCK POT</h4> + +<p>All trimmings and bones, both cooked and uncooked, and any left-over +bits of meat or gravy that are not needed for other dishes, should be +put into the stock pot, covered with cold water, and <i>simmered</i> (<i>not +boiled</i>) with soup vegetables and savory herbs for three or four hours. +Almost any left-over vegetable can be added, including macaroni, rice, +and the scrapings of the cereal cooker. If the family is small, the +cereal cooker itself makes an excellent stock pot: to the remnants of +breakfast cereal, add any soup material at hand; cover with cold water; +cook slowly; strain; and, if necessary, add one or two bouillon cubes, +and a few drops of kitchen bouquet. When soup stock is lacking in +richness a small amount of gelatine improves the quality.</p> + +<p>The water in which vegetables, macaroni, rice, or any meats, either +fresh or salt, are cooked contains valuable mineral matter as well as +flavor, and should be added wholly or in part to the stock pot. Order +corned meats lightly salted so that all of the stock may be used. Be +sure that all fat is removed from soup stock before using. Do not serve +greasy soups. When stock must be used before the fat has had time to +harden, skim off as much as possible, and remove what remains with clean +blotting paper, or a lump of ice wrapped in cheesecloth.<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_5" id="Page_5">[Pg 5]</a></span></p> + +<h4>FISH</h4> + +<p>Fresh fish is offered in variety at all seasons of the year, and is a +valuable and comparatively inexpensive food; salted and smoked fish +contain much protein in a concentrated form; the canned varieties are +important, too, especially for the emergency shelf, as they furnish a +substantial, inexpensive food which can be served in many ways at short +notice.</p> + +<h4>GROCERIES</h4> + +<p>Groceries in sealed packages are, as a rule, slightly more expensive +than those sold in bulk; but they are cleaner, often fresher, and more +convenient to store and use.</p> + +<h4>BUTTER AND OTHER SHORTENING</h4> + +<p>To the taste of the average person, there is no real equivalent for the +flavor of fine creamery butter, but, for cooking, excellent results may +be obtained by the use of cheaper shortening, beginning with the common +household fats which are so often discarded. All drippings from the +roasts and fat from boiled meats should be carefully strained and saved; +beef and chicken fat may be used in many recipes, including those for +cookies, cakes, meat sauces, soups, and made dishes; bacon fat is +excellent for corn cake, meat sauces, and soups of peas, beans, or +lentils; sausage fat may be used for gingerbread, cookies, poultry +stuffing, and also for frying potatoes and other vegetables, for in +these the spicy flavoring is not objectionable. Both bacon and sausage +fat and that from soup stock are useful for basting lean roasts, fish, +or meat loaf. Any surplus fat, including that of lamb and mutton, should +be clarified and added to that in the frying kettle.<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_6" id="Page_6">[Pg 6]</a></span> Fat which cannot +be utilized for cooking should be made into kitchen soap.</p> + +<h4>COOKING FATS—OILS</h4> + +<p>There are many excellent brands of wholesome cooking fats and oils on +the market, including peanut, corn, and cottonseed oil, and compound +vegetable fats. Almost any of these costs less than butter.</p> + +<h4>OLEOMARGARINE</h4> + +<p>The best oleomargarine is wholesome and economical, and much to be +preferred to inferior grades of butter.</p> + +<h4>MILK</h4> + +<p>Milk, even at present prices, gives good return in food value. +Unsweetened evaporated milk, which is absolutely sterile and clean, +costs no more, and in some places costs less, than fresh milk, and can +be used to advantage to supplement the supply. Because of its +consistency it is an excellent substitute for cream in frozen desserts.</p> + +<h4>CREAM</h4> + +<p>When eggs are relatively cheaper than cream, the stiffly beaten white of +an egg may be used to advantage to mix with beaten cream. Thin cream +whipped with a whip churn is lighter and less expensive than heavy cream +beaten.</p> + +<h4>EGGS</h4> + +<p>Unless the winter's supply of eggs has been preserved in water glass, +guaranteed cold storage eggs will be found satisfactory, and much +cheaper than hennery eggs. Only<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_7" id="Page_7">[Pg 7]</a></span> enough for a few days should be bought +at a time, however, and they should be kept in a cold place until used. +Wash eggs before breaking, and save the shells for clearing boiled +coffee, soup, and aspic. For coating croquettes, dilute each beaten egg +with one-fourth cup of water or one-third cup of milk; cover unused +yolks with water to prevent drying, and pour off water before using. +Have both yolk and white of egg cold, so that they may be beaten more +quickly; add a pinch of salt to whites of eggs which are to be beaten +stiff, and beat in a current of air. Soft-boiled or dropped eggs not +used at table should be put back in boiling water, cooked hard, and used +for garnishing, egg sauce, etc.</p> + +<h4>CHEESE</h4> + +<p>Cheese is nutritious and, even at present prices, economical, as it +contains a large proportion of protein in concentrated form. It can be +successfully combined with many other foods, and every left-over bit +should be so used; when partly dry it should be put through the food +chopper, using a fine cutter; when very dry it should be grated and used +in sauces, soufflés, soups, and many other dishes. Cheese is more +readily digested if a pinch of baking soda is cooked with it. To keep +cheese moist and fresh, brush the cut surface with melted paraffin. Save +left-over Welsh rarebit for sandwich filling. The shells of Edam or +pineapple cheeses should not be thrown away, but be filled with creamed +macaroni, spaghetti, or rice, covered with crumbs, and baked in a hot +oven.</p> + +<h4>FRESH VEGETABLES</h4> + +<p>A variety of vegetables should be served daily, and those which contain +a large amount of protein, such as beans,<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_8" id="Page_8">[Pg 8]</a></span> lentils, and peas, should be +used not only as an accompaniment to meat, but, in combination with +other vegetables, sauces, bacon or other fats, as the substantial dish +of the meal.</p> + +<h4>DRIED VEGETABLES</h4> + +<p>Dried vegetables should be soaked in cold water for twelve hours or +longer, and then cooked slowly until tender; dried julienne should be +soaked for twenty-four hours before cooking.</p> + +<h4>MACARONI, NOODLES, RICE, CEREALS</h4> + +<p>Macaroni, noodles and similar pastas, rice, and the cereals furnish much +nutriment at low cost; oatmeal and corn meal are among our cheapest +foods.</p> + +<p>Ready cooked cereals, though they are convenient and give variety to the +diet, are more expensive than raw cereals well cooked; not only do they +yield less food value, but, being dry, they require more cream or milk +to make them palatable.</p> + +<h4>LEFT-OVER VEGETABLES</h4> + +<p>Left-over vegetables and cereals, even in small quantities, should be +saved for use in entrées, desserts, salads, sauces, and soups. Celery +tops should be saved for flavoring and garnishing, the root stalk +chopped and added to the stock pot, and the outside stalks stewed, +creamed, or used for cream soup. The outside leaves of lettuce should be +shredded for salad, or, for any large quantity, cooked the same as +spinach.</p> + +<h4>CANNED VEGETABLES</h4> + +<p>The flavor of canned vegetables is improved if, before being cooked, +they are rinsed with cold water and exposed<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_9" id="Page_9">[Pg 9]</a></span> to the air. Parsley and +chives may be kept growing in pots in the kitchen window to be used as +needed.</p> + +<h4>SALADS</h4> + +<p>Salads should be freely used at all seasons, and be made light or +nourishing according to the foods served with them. They offer an +opportunity to the housekeeper to exercise her ingenuity in combining +various vegetables, meats, and fruits, especially left-over bits. Crisp +white cabbage, shredded, may be used in place of celery.</p> + +<h4>SALAD DRESSINGS</h4> + +<p>Salad dressings need not necessarily be made of olive oil, for there are +other good and less expensive vegetable oils well worth using, and many +of the cooked salad dressings without oil are excellent.</p> + +<h4>BREAD</h4> + +<p>Various kinds of bread should be freely used, especially whole wheat and +other cereal breads, and those containing raisins, dates, and prunes. +Watch the bread-box, and see that every bit of bread is used in some +way; the unused crusts should be dried, rolled, sifted, and kept in a +covered jar for stuffing, crumbing croquettes, brown bread, puddings, or +other dishes in which the color is not objectionable; cold toast or cut +slices should be made into croutons, or used for canapés or French +toast; other pieces should be used for croustades, or made into crumbs, +both coarse and fine, for use in fondues, griddle cakes, omelets, +sauces, and soups. Bits of crackers should be dried, rolled, and used +the same as bread crumbs.<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_10" id="Page_10">[Pg 10]</a></span></p> + +<h4>CAKE</h4> + +<p>None of the recipes for cake require more than two eggs; many, only one; +and some, none at all. Water may always be used in place of milk, and +any clean, fresh shortening may be substituted for butter, especially in +the recipes which include molasses and spices. These cakes will not keep +moist like richer cakes, however, and should be used soon after making.</p> + +<p>Slices of stale cake and crumbs should be utilized in making other +desserts in combination with custards, ices, preserves, etc.</p> + +<h4>BAKING POWDER</h4> + +<p>Do not use more baking powder than is necessary for good results; two +<i>level</i> teaspoons to each cup of flour is the usual allowance, but one +and one-half teaspoons each to each cup will be sufficient if the +muffins, biscuits, or cake are quickly and lightly handled and properly +baked.</p> + +<h4>FLAVORING EXTRACTS</h4> + +<p>When volatile flavoring extracts are used in cake, much of their +strength is wasted during baking; grated rind or spices could well be +used in their place, or only the icing or filling flavored. All +desserts, whenever practicable, should be flavored when cold.</p> + +<h4>COLORING</h4> + +<p>The small package of red coloring which comes with gelatine is useful +for coloring cakes, icings, and other desserts as well as jellies.</p> + +<h4>FRUITS</h4> + +<p>Fruits, either fresh, dried, or preserved, should be served at least +once a day; dried fruits, such as apricots,<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_11" id="Page_11">[Pg 11]</a></span> peaches, and prunes, should +be soaked in cold water for twelve hours or longer and then cooked +slowly until tender. Raisins, dates, and figs yield a large food value +at comparatively low cost. Bananas, which contain more nutriment than +most fresh fruits, should be used for salads or desserts when the other +courses are light. In cooking acid fruits, such as cranberries, plums, +and cherries, less sugar is required if added after cooking. Parings and +cores from quinces and apples can be made into excellent jelly; the +rinds of watermelons are the foundation of a delicious sweet pickle; +orange and grape fruit peel, when candied, are well worth the trouble of +making. Surplus orange, lemon, and grape fruit peels, when dried, are +not only useful for flavoring, but make an interesting and aromatic fuel +for the fire-place; the nut meat found in prune stones tastes much like +that of bitter almonds and can be used in place of them.</p> + +<p>When making jelly remember that the pulp of the fruit after the juice +has dripped from it may be made into excellent marmalade: cover with +water, heat to boiling point, press through a sieve, add three-quarters +of the amount of sugar, and cook until thick.</p> + +<h4>CANDIES</h4> + +<p>In spite of its cost, candy is now classed by many with the necessities +rather than with the luxuries. After a little practice even the most +elaborate candies can be successfully made at home, and the difference +between the cost of a pound of the best ready-made candy and the cost of +the raw materials is astonishing. For those who can spare the time, +candy-making will prove both fascinating<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_12" id="Page_12">[Pg 12]</a></span> and economical. Recipes for a +few after-dinner candies are given.</p> + +<h4>CONDIMENTS</h4> + +<p>A small supply of condiments and relishes, including kitchen bouquet, +ketchup, and sweet herbs, and one or two table sauces, should be kept in +stock, as they make possible a greater variety of flavors. Many +home-made sauces and relishes can be easily and quickly prepared and are +usually much cheaper than the ready-made varieties.</p> + +<h4>CANDLE STUBS</h4> + +<p>Candle stubs should be melted, strained through cheesecloth, and used +for sealing ketchup, jellies, and preserves.</p> + +<h4>GARNISHINGS</h4> + +<p>Any dish, attractively garnished and served, pleases the eye, stimulates +the appetite, and often lifts a simple meal out of the commonplace. +Parsley, mint, celery tops, red and green peppers, olives, pickles, +capers, cooked beets and carrots, hard-cooked egg, lemon cut in various +shapes, nuts, cherries, and other small fruits are all effective if not +too lavishly used.</p> + +<h4>UTENSILS</h4> + +<p>A reasonable equipment of kitchen utensils and a convenient, systematic +arrangement of them will save time and strength. Kitchen scales are +almost indispensable, and a cooking thermometer eliminates guesswork, +especially in boiling sugar and heating fat for frying. Pans, molds, and +cutters of various shapes prevent monotony; suitable baking dishes and +covered casserole dishes simplify both cooking and serving; and food +cooked or served in individual<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_13" id="Page_13">[Pg 13]</a></span> dishes is often more attractive. When +the cogs of the egg beater slip, do not discard it, but tighten the +rivet; keep knives well sharpened. Cream jars, jugs, bottles, or any +other containers for which a charge is made, should be promptly returned +to be credited.</p> + +<h4>FUEL</h4> + +<p>Do not waste fuel; concentrate your cooking; when a hot oven is needed +for roasting meat or baking bread, plan to cook at the same time other +things which require a high temperature; potatoes can be cooked in the +pan with the meat; other vegetables and fruits can be cooked in the +oven; and if a coal fire is used, a variety of food can be cooked in a +steamer on top of the range without extra fuel.</p> + +<p>Have the ashes sifted and save the <i>cinders</i>, which yield a quick top +heat.</p> + +<p>Economize <i>gas</i> by using the minimum amount necessary to keep food +cooking at the desired temperature. When the boiling point is reached a +small supply of gas will maintain the temperature.</p> + +<p><i>Fireless cookers</i> save much fuel and unnecessary heat, and are +especially useful for any food which requires long, slow cooking, or for +those foods of strong odor which so often scent up the whole house.</p> + +<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_14" id="Page_14">[Pg 14]</a></span></p> + +<hr style="width: 65%;" /> +<h2>SPECIAL NOTICE</h2> + +<p>All ingredients in these recipes should be measured level, and the +standard teaspoon, tablespoon, and half-pint measuring cup should be +used.</p> + +<p>Unless otherwise stated, one apple, onion, orange, etc., means one of +medium size.</p> + +<p>Sift flour before measuring, and fill cup lightly. Use pastry flour, +unless otherwise directed, for thickening soups and sauces, and in all +recipes where baking powder is used; use bread flour in all recipes +where yeast is used.</p> + +<p>The majority of these recipes are planned to serve four persons; those +for chowders and other dishes which form the substantial part of the +meal are sufficient for second helpings; those for cakes, muffins, and +other breads are large enough to be served more than once.<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_15" id="Page_15">[Pg 15]</a></span></p> + +<hr style="width: 65%;" /> +<h2><a name="CHAPTER_II" id="CHAPTER_II"></a>CHAPTER II</h2> + +<h3>COMMON WAYS OF COOKING FOOD</h3> + +<p><i>Baking</i> is cooking in confined heat in the oven. Examples: bread, cake, +meat. This method when applied to meat is commonly called roasting. +Before baking, see that the oven is clean and heated to the desired +temperature.</p> + +<p><i>Boiling</i> is cooking by immersion in water at 212° F. Examples: +potatoes, cabbage, macaroni.</p> + +<p><i>Braising</i> is a combination of stewing on the top of the range, and +baking in the oven, with or without vegetables. Examples: tough meats, +fowl, whole liver.</p> + +<p><i>Broiling or Grilling</i> is cooking over or under direct heat, as over +glowing coals or under a gas flame. Examples: steak, chops.</p> + +<p><i>Fricasseeing</i> is commonly a combination of stewing and sautéing. +Examples: fowl, forequarter of lamb or veal.</p> + +<p><i>Frying</i> is cooking by immersion in hot deep fat. Examples: doughnuts, +croquettes.</p> + +<p><i>Pan-baking or Pan-broiling</i> is cooking in a lightly greased or +ungreased hot frying pan or griddle. Examples: steak, English muffins, +griddle cakes.</p> + +<p><i>Pot Roasting</i> is cooking in an iron kettle or earthen pot in a small +amount of water, after meat has been quickly browned in a small amount +of fat in the frying pan<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_16" id="Page_16">[Pg 16]</a></span> or kettle. Cook slowly until very tender, with +or without vegetables.</p> + +<p><i>Roasting</i> is cooking before an open fire. This method is seldom used in +small households, although the baking of meats is commonly called +roasting.</p> + +<p><i>Sautéing</i> is cooking in a small amount of fat in a shallow pan on top +of range. Examples: sliced fish, meat, potatoes, eggs.</p> + +<p><i>Simmering</i> is cooking in liquid at 185° F. The bubbles should always be +below the surface. Examples: ham, corned beef, soups.</p> + +<p><i>Steaming.</i> <i>Dry Steaming</i> is cooking by heat of steam, as in double +boiler or tin, over or surrounded by boiling water. Examples: rice, +brown bread. <i>Moist Steaming</i> is cooking by direct contact with steam as +in a steamer or colander, over boiling water, closely covered. Examples: +fowl, puddings, dumplings.</p> + +<p><i>Stewing</i> is cooking slowly in a small amount of water (about 160° F.) +until food is very tender. Examples: beef, lamb, vegetables.<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_17" id="Page_17">[Pg 17]</a></span></p> + +<hr style="width: 65%;" /> +<h2><a name="CHAPTER_III" id="CHAPTER_III"></a>CHAPTER III</h2> + +<h3>APPETIZERS AND RELISHES</h3> + +<h4>1.—COCKTAIL SAUCE</h4> + +<div class='center'> +<table border="0" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" summary=""> +<tr><td align='left'>¼ cup tomato ketchup</td><td align='left'>½ teaspoon salt</td></tr> +<tr><td align='left'>1 tablespoon bottled horseradish</td><td align='left'>1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce</td></tr> +<tr><td align='left'>2 tablespoons vinegar</td><td align='left'>Dash of cayenne</td></tr> +</table></div> + +<p>Mix, and serve in four small glasses or lemon shells, with six small +clams or oysters in each.

For those who would continue to serve their +households well, and whose allowance for food has not kept pace with +prices, there is only one alternative, and that is, to use more of the +cheaper foods, and to prepare and combine them so skilfully that economy +shall not be a hardship. Good meals depend not so much upon expensive +material as upon care and good judgment in the use of ordinary material. +The time-worn boarding-house jokes about prunes and hash mean simply +that these foods, in themselves excellent, are poorly prepared and too +frequently served. + +It is the plan of this book to include a variety of (1) recipes which +require only a small amount of meat; (2) recipes for vegetable dishes +which can take the place of meat; (3) recipes for the economical use of +cereals, dairy products, and other common inexpensive foods; (4) recipes +for breads, cakes, and desserts requiring only a small amount of butter +and eggs; and (5) recipes for a few relishes, condiments, and other +accessories which lend variety and interest. The General Suggestions for +Economy (Chapter I) are not all new, but are liable, through disuse, to +be forgotten by the present generation. Spasmodic economy counts for +little in the long run; only systematic and continued watchfulness is +really worth while. + +Economy, however, ought not to necessitate the total elimination of +one's favorite cuts of steak, nor all of the little luxuries, because by +the skilful planning of the majority of the meals the occasional use of +these luxuries can be made possible. + +This book is not intended as a complete guide to cookery; it presupposes +an elementary knowledge of the care and preparation of food. + +The study of Tables D and E in the Appendix is especially recommended as +an aid to the better understanding of food values. + + M.

Many +books are published on these subjects, but from the government +publications alone (see page 255) an excellent working knowledge may be +obtained. Only the merest outline can be given here, and this should be +supplemented by further reading. + +Briefly stated, food is divided into three chief classes:[1] +(1) _Protein_, which builds and repairs the tissues.[2] It is furnished +chiefly by meats, fish, cheese, milk, eggs, cereals, and legumes. +(2) _Fats_, which furnish heat and energy, but are chiefly valuable for +storing a reserve supply of fat in the body. They are furnished largely +by butter, cream, olive and similar vegetable oils, bacon and other fat +meats. (3) _Carbohydrates_, which furnish heat and energy. They are +supplied chiefly by potatoes and other vegetables, cereals, fruits, and +sugars. + +People who are eating the proper amount and kind of food should +approximate the normal weight[3] for their sex, age, and height. For the +proper maintenance of the body, a man of average height and weight, of +sedentary life,[4] requires daily food which will yield about 2,500 +calories;[5] a woman of average height and weight, about 2,300 calories +(more or less according to activity). Children between two and five +years require from 1,200 to 1,400 calories; between five and ten years, +from 1,400 to 1,900 calories; and from ten to fourteen years, from 1,900 +to 2,500 calories. Girls between fourteen and seventeen years require +from 2,200 to 2,600 calories; and boys between fourteen and seventeen +years, from 2,500 to 3,000 calories. Of the total number of calories +furnished ten per cent. should be protein, approximately 30 per cent. +fat, and 60 per cent. carbohydrates. + +Before planning meals the consideration of these caloric requirements +and the study of the "Caloric Value of Average Portions of Food" (Table +D, page 245) and of the "Fuel Value of Raw Materials" (Table E, page +250) will help in the selection of foods to yield approximately the +desired amount of nutrition. It is not necessary or desirable that the +exact amount of each class of foods should be reckoned daily; but by the +general study of foods and their nutritive value, and the food +requirements of the body, which vary with age, sex, and conditions, the +housekeeper may serve her family with the kinds and amount of food best +suited to their needs. She should plan to use in a week as large a +variety of food as possible, and to avoid an excess of any one class. +With a definite idea of the needs of the family, she should take account +of the stock in the ice-box and pantry, and see that every bit of food +is utilized to advantage. Meals should be planned in detail at least one +day in advance, and, if possible, outlined for several days ahead; +though these plans must, of course, be varied slightly, at times, +according to the amount of left-over material and the exigencies of +supply and demand. Each day's programme should be plainly written; any +special recipes to be used noted; and a list made of supplies to be +ordered. To have the meals planned well in advance and the order list +ready saves a deal of nervous energy, time, and money. + + +MARKETING + +If possible, attend personally to your marketing and consider carefully +the quality, quantity, and cost of your purchases in relation to the +needs of your purse and your household. Ask for what you want, and try +hard to get it; but in trying to buy supplies at lowest prices be sure +that the time and nervous energy spent are not out of proportion to the +amount of money saved. + + +MEAT + +In considering the price of meat, the amount of bone, fat, gristle, and +so forth should be taken into account. Many of the coarser and cheaper +parts contain as much nutriment as the more expensive cuts, and can, by +proper cooking, be made fully as palatable. See that every bit of +left-over meat is used to advantage and in a variety of ways; the rinds +of bacon and salt pork when cooked with spinach or other greens, or in +soups of peas or beans, add both flavor and richness. + + +THE STOCK POT + +All trimmings and bones, both cooked and uncooked, and any left-over +bits of meat or gravy that are not needed for other dishes, should be +put into the stock pot, covered with cold water, and _simmered_ (_not +boiled_) with soup vegetables and savory herbs for three or four hours. +Almost any left-over vegetable can be added, including macaroni, rice, +and the scrapings of the cereal cooker. If the family is small, the +cereal cooker itself makes an excellent stock pot: to the remnants of +breakfast cereal, add any soup material at hand; cover with cold water; +cook slowly; strain; and, if necessary, add one or two bouillon cubes, +and a few drops of kitchen bouquet. When soup stock is lacking in +richness a small amount of gelatine improves the quality. + +The water in which vegetables, macaroni, rice, or any meats, either +fresh or salt, are cooked contains valuable mineral matter as well as +flavor, and should be added wholly or in part to the stock pot. Order +corned meats lightly salted so that all of the stock may be used. Be +sure that all fat is removed from soup stock before using. Do not serve +greasy soups. When stock must be used before the fat has had time to +harden, skim off as much as possible, and remove what remains with clean +blotting paper, or a lump of ice wrapped in cheesecloth. + + +FISH + +Fresh fish is offered in variety at all seasons of the year, and is a +valuable and comparatively inexpensive food; salted and smoked fish +contain much protein in a concentrated form; the canned varieties are +important, too, especially for the emergency shelf, as they furnish a +substantial, inexpensive food which can be served in many ways at short +notice. + + +GROCERIES + +Groceries in sealed packages are, as a rule, slightly more expensive +than those sold in bulk; but they are cleaner, often fresher, and more +convenient to store and use. + +BUTTER AND OTHER SHORTENING + +To the taste of the average person, there is no real equivalent for the +flavor of fine creamery butter, but, for cooking, excellent results may +be obtained by the use of cheaper shortening, beginning with the common +household fats which are so often discarded. All drippings from the +roasts and fat from boiled meats should be carefully strained and saved; +beef and chicken fat may be used in many recipes, including those for +cookies, cakes, meat sauces, soups, and made dishes; bacon fat is +excellent for corn cake, meat sauces, and soups of peas, beans, or +lentils; sausage fat may be used for gingerbread, cookies, poultry +stuffing, and also for frying potatoes and other vegetables, for in +these the spicy flavoring is not objectionable. Both bacon and sausage +fat and that from soup stock are useful for basting lean roasts, fish, +or meat loaf. Any surplus fat, including that of lamb and mutton, should +be clarified and added to that in the frying kettle. Fat which cannot +be utilized for cooking should be made into kitchen soap. + + +COOKING FATS--OILS + +There are many excellent brands of wholesome cooking fats and oils on +the market, including peanut, corn, and cottonseed oil, and compound +vegetable fats. Almost any of these costs less than butter. + + +OLEOMARGARINE + +The best oleomargarine is wholesome and economical, and much to be +preferred to inferior grades of butter. + + +MILK + +Milk, even at present prices, gives good return in food value. +Unsweetened evaporated milk, which is absolutely sterile and clean, +costs no more, and in some places costs less, than fresh milk, and can +be used to advantage to supplement the supply. Because of its +consistency it is an excellent substitute for cream in frozen desserts. + + +CREAM + +When eggs are relatively cheaper than cream, the stiffly beaten white of +an egg may be used to advantage to mix with beaten cream. Thin cream +whipped with a whip churn is lighter and less expensive than heavy cream +beaten. + + +EGGS + +Unless the winter's supply of eggs has been preserved in water glass, +guaranteed cold storage eggs will be found satisfactory, and much +cheaper than hennery eggs. Only enough for a few days should be bought +at a time, however, and they should be kept in a cold place until used. +Wash eggs before breaking, and save the shells for clearing boiled +coffee, soup, and aspic. For coating croquettes, dilute each beaten egg +with one-fourth cup of water or one-third cup of milk; cover unused +yolks with water to prevent drying, and pour off water before using. +Have both yolk and white of egg cold, so that they may be beaten more +quickly; add a pinch of salt to whites of eggs which are to be beaten +stiff, and beat in a current of air. Soft-boiled or dropped eggs not +used at table should be put back in boiling water, cooked hard, and used +for garnishing, egg sauce, etc. + + +CHEESE + +Cheese is nutritious and, even at present prices, economical, as it +contains a large proportion of protein in concentrated form. It can be +successfully combined with many other foods, and every left-over bit +should be so used; when partly dry it should be put through the food +chopper, using a fine cutter; when very dry it should be grated and used +in sauces, souffles, soups, and many other dishes. Cheese is more +readily digested if a pinch of baking soda is cooked with it. To keep +cheese moist and fresh, brush the cut surface with melted paraffin. Save +left-over Welsh rarebit for sandwich filling. The shells of Edam or +pineapple cheeses should not be thrown away, but be filled with creamed +macaroni, spaghetti, or rice, covered with crumbs, and baked in a hot +oven. + + +FRESH VEGETABLES + +A variety of vegetables should be served daily, and those which contain +a large amount of protein, such as beans, lentils, and peas, should be +used not only as an accompaniment to meat, but, in combination with +other vegetables, sauces, bacon or other fats, as the substantial dish +of the meal. + + +DRIED VEGETABLES + +Dried vegetables should be soaked in cold water for twelve hours or +longer, and then cooked slowly until tender; dried julienne should be +soaked for twenty-four hours before cooking. + + +MACARONI, NOODLES, RICE, CEREALS + +Macaroni, noodles and similar pastas, rice, and the cereals furnish much +nutriment at low cost; oatmeal and corn meal are among our cheapest +foods. + +Ready cooked cereals, though they are convenient and give variety to the +diet, are more expensive than raw cereals well cooked; not only do they +yield less food value, but, being dry, they require more cream or milk +to make them palatable. + + +LEFT-OVER VEGETABLES + +Left-over vegetables and cereals, even in small quantities, should be +saved for use in entrees, desserts, salads, sauces, and soups. Celery +tops should be saved for flavoring and garnishing, the root stalk +chopped and added to the stock pot, and the outside stalks stewed, +creamed, or used for cream soup. The outside leaves of lettuce should be +shredded for salad, or, for any large quantity, cooked the same as +spinach. + + +CANNED VEGETABLES + +The flavor of canned vegetables is improved if, before being cooked, +they are rinsed with cold water and exposed to the air. Parsley and +chives may be kept growing in pots in the kitchen window to be used as +needed. + + +SALADS + +Salads should be freely used at all seasons, and be made light or +nourishing according to the foods served with them. They offer an +opportunity to the housekeeper to exercise her ingenuity in combining +various vegetables, meats, and fruits, especially left-over bits. Crisp +white cabbage, shredded, may be used in place of celery. + + +SALAD DRESSINGS + +Salad dressings need not necessarily be made of olive oil, for there are +other good and less expensive vegetable oils well worth using, and many +of the cooked salad dressings without oil are excellent. + + +BREAD + +Various kinds of bread should be freely used, especially whole wheat and +other cereal breads, and those containing raisins, dates, and prunes. +Watch the bread-box, and see that every bit of bread is used in some +way; the unused crusts should be dried, rolled, sifted, and kept in a +covered jar for stuffing, crumbing croquettes, brown bread, puddings, or +other dishes in which the color is not objectionable; cold toast or cut +slices should be made into croutons, or used for canapes or French +toast; other pieces should be used for croustades, or made into crumbs, +both coarse and fine, for use in fondues, griddle cakes, omelets, +sauces, and soups. Bits of crackers should be dried, rolled, and used +the same as bread crumbs. + +None of the recipes for cake require more than two eggs; many, only one; +and some, none at all. Water may always be used in place of milk, and +any clean, fresh shortening may be substituted for butter, especially in +the recipes which include molasses and spices. These cakes will not keep +moist like richer cakes, however, and should be used soon after making. + +Slices of stale cake and crumbs should be utilized in making other +desserts in combination with custards, ices, preserves, etc. + + +BAKING POWDER + +Do not use more baking powder than is necessary for good results; two +_level_ teaspoons to each cup of flour is the usual allowance, but one +and one-half teaspoons each to each cup will be sufficient if the +muffins, biscuits, or cake are quickly and lightly handled and properly +baked. + + +FLAVORING EXTRACTS + +When volatile flavoring extracts are used in cake, much of their +strength is wasted during baking; grated rind or spices could well be +used in their place, or only the icing or filling flavored. All +desserts, whenever practicable, should be flavored when cold. + + +COLORING + +The small package of red coloring which comes with gelatine is useful +for coloring cakes, icings, and other desserts as well as jellies. + + +FRUITS + +Fruits, either fresh, dried, or preserved, should be served at least +once a day; dried fruits, such as apricots, peaches, and prunes, should +be soaked in cold water for twelve hours or longer and then cooked +slowly until tender. Raisins, dates, and figs yield a large food value +at comparatively low cost. Bananas, which contain more nutriment than +most fresh fruits, should be used for salads or desserts when the other +courses are light. In cooking acid fruits, such as cranberries, plums, +and cherries, less sugar is required if added after cooking. Parings and +cores from quinces and apples can be made into excellent jelly; the +rinds of watermelons are the foundation of a delicious sweet pickle; +orange and grape fruit peel, when candied, are well worth the trouble of +making. Surplus orange, lemon, and grape fruit peels, when dried, are +not only useful for flavoring, but make an interesting and aromatic fuel +for the fire-place; the nut meat found in prune stones tastes much like +that of bitter almonds and can be used in place of them. + +When making jelly remember that the pulp of the fruit after the juice +has dripped from it may be made into excellent marmalade: cover with +water, heat to boiling point, press through a sieve, add three-quarters +of the amount of sugar, and cook until thick. + + +CANDIES + +In spite of its cost, candy is now classed by many with the necessities +rather than with the luxuries. After a little practice even the most +elaborate candies can be successfully made at home, and the difference +between the cost of a pound of the best ready-made candy and the cost of +the raw materials is astonishing. For those who can spare the time, +candy-making will prove both fascinating and economical. Recipes for a +few after-dinner candies are given. + + +CONDIMENTS + +A small supply of condiments and relishes, including kitchen bouquet, +ketchup, and sweet herbs, and one or two table sauces, should be kept in +stock, as they make possible a greater variety of flavors. Many +home-made sauces and relishes can be easily and quickly prepared and are +usually much cheaper than the ready-made varieties. + + +CANDLE STUBS + +Candle stubs should be melted, strained through cheesecloth, and used +for sealing ketchup, jellies, and preserves. + + +GARNISHINGS + +Any dish, attractively garnished and served, pleases the eye, stimulates +the appetite, and often lifts a simple meal out of the commonplace. +Parsley, mint, celery tops, red and green peppers, olives, pickles, +capers, cooked beets and carrots, hard-cooked egg, lemon cut in various +shapes, nuts, cherries, and other small fruits are all effective if not +too lavishly used. + + +UTENSILS + +A reasonable equipment of kitchen utensils and a convenient, systematic +arrangement of them will save time and strength. Kitchen scales are +almost indispensable, and a cooking thermometer eliminates guesswork, +especially in boiling sugar and heating fat for frying. Pans, molds, and +cutters of various shapes prevent monotony; suitable baking dishes and +covered casserole dishes simplify both cooking and serving; and food +cooked or served in individual dishes is often more attractive. When +the cogs of the egg beater slip, do not discard it, but tighten the +rivet; keep knives well sharpened. Cream jars, jugs, bottles, or any +other containers for which a charge is made, should be promptly returned +to be credited. + + +FUEL + +Do not waste fuel; concentrate your cooking; when a hot oven is needed +for roasting meat or baking bread, plan to cook at the same time other +things which require a high temperature; potatoes can be cooked in the +pan with the meat; other vegetables and fruits can be cooked in the +oven; and if a coal fire is used, a variety of food can be cooked in a +steamer on top of the range without extra fuel. + +Have the ashes sifted and save the _cinders_, which yield a quick top +heat. + +Economize _gas_ by using the minimum amount necessary to keep food +cooking at the desired temperature. When the boiling point is reached a +small supply of gas will maintain the temperature. + +_Fireless cookers_ save much fuel and unnecessary heat, and are +especially useful for any food which requires long, slow cooking, or for +those foods of strong odor which so often scent up the whole house. + +FOOTNOTES: + +[1] Water and mineral salts are also necessary for the proper +maintenance of the body, but these are yielded chiefly in combination +with the other foods. + +[2] Protein can also furnish energy, but this is more easily and cheaply +supplied by the fats and carbohydrates. + +[3] See Table F, page 253. + +[4] People of sedentary life require daily approximately sixteen +calories for each pound of their weight. So if the normal weight of such +persons is multiplied by sixteen, the result will be the approximate +number of calories needed. + +[5] A Calorie is the amount of heat required to raise one kilogram of +water 1 deg. Centigrade or one pound of water 4 deg. Fahrenheit. + + + + +SPECIAL NOTICE + + +All ingredients in these recipes should be measured level, and the +standard teaspoon, tablespoon, and half-pint measuring cup should be +used. + +Unless otherwise stated, one apple, onion, orange, etc., means one of +medium size. + +Sift flour before measuring, and fill cup lightly. Use pastry flour, +unless otherwise directed, for thickening soups and sauces, and in all +recipes where baking powder is used; use bread flour in all recipes +where yeast is used. + +The majority of these recipes are planned to serve four persons; those +for chowders and other dishes which form the substantial part of the +meal are sufficient for second helpings; those for cakes, muffins, and +other breads are large enough to be served more than once. + + + + +CHAPTER II + +COMMON WAYS OF COOKING FOOD + + +_Baking_ is cooking in confined heat in the oven. Examples: bread, cake, +meat. This method when applied to meat is commonly called roasting. +Before baking, see that the oven is clean and heated to the desired +temperature. + +_Boiling_ is cooking by immersion in water at 212 deg. F. Examples: +potatoes, cabbage, macaroni. + +_Braising_ is a combination of stewing on the top of the range, and +baking in the oven, with or without vegetables. Examples: tough meats, +fowl, whole liver. + +_Broiling or Grilling_ is cooking over or under direct heat, as over +glowing coals or under a gas flame. Examples: steak, chops. + +_Fricasseeing_ is commonly a combination of stewing and sauteing. +Examples: fowl, forequarter of lamb or veal. + +_Frying_ is cooking by immersion in hot deep fat. Examples: doughnuts, +croquettes. + +_Pan-baking or Pan-broiling_ is cooking in a lightly greased or +ungreased hot frying pan or griddle. Examples: steak, English muffins, +griddle cakes. + +_Pot Roasting_ is cooking in an iron kettle or earthen pot in a small +amount of water, after meat has been quickly browned in a small amount +of fat in the frying pan or kettle. Cook slowly until very tender, with +or without vegetables. + +_Roasting_ is cooking before an open fire. This method is seldom used in +small households, although the baking of meats is commonly called +roasting. + +_Sauteing_ is cooking in a small amount of fat in a shallow pan on top +of range. Examples: sliced fish, meat, potatoes, eggs. + +_Simmering_ is cooking in liquid at 185 deg. F. The bubbles should always be +below the surface. Examples: ham, corned beef, soups. + +_Steaming._ _Dry Steaming_ is cooking by heat of steam, as in double +boiler or tin, over or surrounded by boiling water. Examples: rice, +brown bread. _Moist Steaming_ is cooking by direct contact with steam as +in a steamer or colander, over boiling water, closely covered. Examples: +fowl, puddings, dumplings. + +_Stewing_ is cooking slowly in a small amount of water (about 160 deg. F.) +until food is very tender. Examples: beef, lamb, vegetables. + + + + +CHAPTER III + +APPETIZERS AND RELISHES + + +1.--COCKTAIL SAUCE + + 1/4 cup tomato ketchup 1/2 teaspoon salt + 1 tablespoon bottled horseradish 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce + 2 tablespoons vinegar Dash of cayenne + +Mix, and serve in four small glasses or lemon shells, with six small +clams or oysters in each.

Dust with paprika. + + +10.--SPANISH CHEESE + +Cook together one and a half cups of soft or grated cheese with +one-fourth cup of chili sauce until the cheese is melted. Serve +immediately on toasted crackers or rounds of toast, as an appetizer or +savory. + + +11.--CANTALOUPE COCKTAIL + + 2 cups cantaloupe Juice of 1/2 lemon + 1/3 cup preserved ginger 2 tablespoons powdered sugar + +Cut melon in small cubes, or in balls (using a potato cutter). Add +chopped ginger, lemon juice, and sugar, and serve very cold. + + +12.--FRUIT COCKTAIL + + 2 tart apples 1 teaspoon lemon juice + 1 large banana 4 tablespoons powdered sugar + 2 oranges + +Cut apples and bananas in small cubes; remove pith and seeds from +oranges, cut pulp in small pieces, and add with juice to apples and +bananas; add lemon juice and sugar, place in a shallow dish, and put +directly on ice for ten minutes to chill; serve in glasses, and garnish +with a Preserved Cranberry (see No. 670), or a spoonful of Mock +Bar-le-Duc (see No. 666). Peeled Tokay or Malaga grapes and a little +grated pineapple may be added to advantage. + + +13.--WINTER CHILI SAUCE + + 1 can tomatoes 1/8 teaspoon cayenne + 2 onions finely chopped 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon + 1/3 cup brown sugar 1/4 teaspoon clove + 1-1/2 teaspoons salt 1/3 cup vinegar + 1 teaspoon paprika + +Mix, and simmer about half an hour or until thick. + + +14.--PICCALILLI + + 3 quarts green tomatoes 2 quarts vinegar + 3 quarts ripe tomatoes 1 quart sugar + 2 red peppers 1 teaspoon cinnamon + 3 onions 1/2 teaspoon clove + 1/2 cup salt 4 tablespoons white mustard seed + +Put vegetables through the food chopper, using coarse cutter; sprinkle +with salt, let stand over night, and drain; add other ingredients, and +cook about forty-five minutes. + + +15.--TABLE SAUCE + + 12 ripe tomatoes 1/4 teaspoon pepper + 1 onion 1 cup vinegar + 3 green peppers 1 teaspoon ground clove + 2 tablespoons sugar 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon + 1-1/2 tablespoons salt 2 teaspoons mustard + 1 teaspoon paprika + +Wipe tomatoes, cut in halves, and put in a clean, smooth preserving +kettle; add onion and peppers sliced, and seasonings; simmer two hours, +and press through a sieve; return to kettle, simmer one hour, and seal +in jars or bottles; when cool, dip tops in paraffin. This may be used in +place of ready-made sauce. + + +16.--TOMATO KETCHUP + + 1 peck ripe tomatoes 1/2 cup whole mixed spices + 3 onions 1 clove of garlic + 1/2 cup salt 1/3 cup dry mustard + 2 teaspoons cayenne 1 quart vinegar + 2 tablespoons paprika 1 cup brown sugar + +Wipe tomatoes, cut in halves, and put in a smooth, clean preserving +kettle; add onions sliced, cook slowly for one hour, and press through a +sieve; add salt, cayenne, and paprika; tie mixed spices, garlic, and +mustard in double cheesecloth, add to tomatoes, and cook rapidly until +mixture begins to thicken; boil vinegar and sugar together while +tomatoes are cooking; add them to strained tomato; cook until ketchup is +thick, or until water will not separate from it when tried on a plate. +Remove spice bag, seal in sterilized jars or bottles, and when cool dip +tops in melted paraffin. + + +17.--SMALL CUCUMBER PICKLES (Gherkins) + +Wash thoroughly, count, and for every hundred cucumbers allow one cup of +salt. Cover with boiling water. Let stand twenty-four hours; then drain. +Fill quart preserve jars with cucumbers, then add two tablespoons of +mixed whole spices, a piece of alum the size of a pea, and boiling +vinegar to fill the jar. Seal, and let stand a week before using. The +boiling water should be measured, as an equal amount of vinegar will be +needed. + + +18.--PEPPER HASH + + 6 green peppers 1 quart vinegar + 6 red peppers 1 cup brown sugar + 6 onions 2 tablespoons salt + 1 small white cabbage 2 tablespoons mustard seed + +Remove seeds from peppers and chop fine with the onion and cabbage. Put +in cheesecloth, scald with boiling water, and squeeze dry; heat vinegar, +sugar, salt, and mustard seed, add vegetables, and bring to the boiling +point. When cool, put in a stone crock or small jars. + + +19.--PICKLED NASTURTIUM SEEDS + +Into one quart of cider vinegar put three tablespoons salt and five or +six slices of horseradish root. Pour into a jar and cover closely. Add +the seeds as they ripen. Use in salads, sauces, or for garnishing as a +substitute for capers. + + + + +CHAPTER IV + +BEVERAGES + + +20.--COFFEE, EGG, AND MILK + + 2 eggs 1-1/2 teaspoons instantaneous coffee + 2-1/2 tablespoons sugar 3 cups milk + Few grains salt + +Beat the eggs until light; add the other ingredients, and strain into +glasses. Serve very cold. (This recipe fills four tumblers.) + + +21.--GRAPE JUICE (Unfermented) + +Pick over and wash grapes, barely cover with water, and cook until soft +and white; drain through cheesecloth, and to each quart of juice add one +cup each of water and sugar; bring to boiling point, skim, bottle, and +cork tightly. When cold, dip corks into melted paraffin. + + +22.--GRAPE EGGNOG + + 1 egg 1/4 cup milk + 1/3 cup grape juice Nutmeg + 1 teaspoon powdered sugar + +Beat egg until very light, add grape juice and sugar, and beat again, +add milk, beat well, pour into a glass, and dust with nutmeg. + + +23.--GINGER PUNCH + + 1-1/4 cups sugar 2 teaspoons Jamaica ginger + 1 quart boiling water 1/2 cup orange juice + Grated rind 1 lemon 1/3 cup lemon juice + +Boil sugar and water with the lemon rind for ten minutes; when cool, add +ginger and fruit juice, and strain over cracked ice. + + +24.--GINGER ALE PUNCH + + 1/2 cup mint leaves 1 cup boiling water + 1-1/4 cups sugar 2 pints ginger ale + Juice of 3 lemons 1 pint grape juice + +Pour boiling water over mint leaves, sugar, and grated rind of one +lemon, and let stand until cool; strain into a punch bowl containing +ice, add ginger ale, grape juice, and strained lemon juice; garnish with +sprigs of mint. + + +25.--MINT JULEP (Ginger Ale) + + 3/4 cup sugar 4 sprigs mint + 1 cup water 1 pint ginger ale + Juice of 3 lemons + +Boil sugar and water ten minutes, and cool; add strained lemon juice, +mint leaves bruised, and ginger ale; half fill glasses with crushed ice, +add julep, and garnish with a sprig of mint. + + +26.--MINT LEMONADE + + 1 cup sugar 1 cup mint leaves + 6 cups water Juice of 3 lemons + +Boil sugar and water twenty minutes; add mint, and let stand until cold; +add lemon juice, and strain into glasses half filled with cracked ice. +Garnish with sprigs of mint. + + +27.--TEA + +Tea should be made from freshly drawn, freshly boiled water, poured over +the dry tea, which has been put into a clean, scalded teapot. Cover with +a cozy or stand on back of range for three or four minutes. Allow from a +half to a full teaspoon of tea to each cup, according to the variety +used. The finer varieties made from the first pickings require less than +the coarser kinds. Be sure that tea does not boil. Serve with sugar, +cream, lemon, cloves, mints, ginger, or bits of candied fruit. + + +28.--ICED TEA + +Fill a large glass two-thirds full with cracked ice, add two thin slices +of lemon with seeds removed, two teaspoons of powdered sugar, and fill +with freshly made hot tea. One or two mint leaves may be added. + + +29.--FILTERED COFFEE + + 1/2 cup pulverized coffee 4 cups boiling water + +Put coffee into bag or filter, add boiling water gradually; pour through +a second time, or even a third time if liked strong.

Strain the stock, and +use for soups or sauces. + + +120.--PRESSED CORNED BEEF + +Select a four-pound piece of shoulder or lean end of brisket lightly +corned; wash well, cover with boiling water, and cook slowly for four +hours; pack and press as for Pressed Beef (see No. 119). The heat should +not be above the simmering point (185 deg. F.): if the water boils the meat +will be tough. + + +121.--ROAST BEEF + +The most economical cuts of beef for roasting are the shoulder, the face +of the rump, and the chuck ribs; they are all of good flavor and fairly +tender. When ordering a shoulder roast, have an inch slice cut off to +broil. The chuck roast should be ordered boned and rolled, and the bones +sent with it. Wipe beef with cheesecloth, place skin side down on a rack +in a roasting pan suitable for the size of the roast; dust with salt and +pepper, dredge with flour, and cook in a hot oven, basting every ten +minutes. When half roasted, turn over, dredge with flour, and finish +cooking. For a medium-cooked roast allow seventeen minutes for each +pound of meat. The oven should be very hot for the first fifteen +minutes, after which the heat should be reduced. + + +122.--POT ROAST OF BEEF + +A small aitchbone or a solid piece from the shoulder weighing about five +pounds makes an economical roast.

Color with a few drops of +kitchen bouquet. + + +125.--TO BROIL STEAK + +Wipe steak, trim off superfluous fat, place on a greased broiler with +fat towards the handle, and broil over a clear fire or under a gas +flame. Turn four or five times during the first minute, and then +occasionally. For steak an inch and a half thick, medium cooked, allow +twelve minutes to broil. Season with salt and pepper, and spread with +soft butter. A slice from the shoulder is a good and inexpensive cut. + + +126.--BROILED FLANK STEAK + +Follow directions for broiling steak (see No. 125), but, as flank steak +is thinner, broil only seven or eight minutes. Season with salt and +pepper, spread with one tablespoon of soft butter and one tablespoon of +tomato ketchup. + + +127.--STEAK COUNTRY STYLE + + 1-1/2 pounds flank steak 1/3 teaspoon salt + 4 onions 1/8 teaspoon pepper + 1 tablespoon flour 1/4 cup boiling water + +Pound the steak with a meat pounder or a wooden potato masher to break +the tough fibers.

Use left-over stock for soups or +sauces. + + +136.--CASSEROLE OF LAMB + + 1-1/2 pounds forequarter lamb 2 tablespoons rolled oats + 1/2 cup each white turnip, carrot, 1/4 teaspoon pepper + and onion finely chopped 1-1/2 teaspoons salt + 1 cup tomato 3 cups hot water + +Remove fat and cut meat into inch pieces; put into a casserole with +vegetables, oats, seasonings, and water, and cook in a moderate oven two +hours. + + +137.--LAMB CHOPS + +Chops from the forequarter are much cheaper than loin or kidney chops. +They contain more bone, but are tender and of good flavor, if well +cooked. Cook the same as Lamb Cutlets (see No. 138). The time of cooking +may vary slightly according to the thickness of the meat. + + +138.--LAMB CUTLETS + +Have a small forequarter of lamb cut in pieces for serving; select the +best pieces, trim, and skewer into shape.

Oil of wintergreen, cloves, or cinnamon may be used in place of +spearmint, and other coloring may be used. + + +695.--TURKISH DELIGHT + + 1 box granulated gelatine 3 tablespoons lemon juice + 2/3 cup strained orange juice Grated rind 1 orange + 1 cup boiling water 1/4 cup nut meats cut fine + 2 cups sugar 1/2 cup candied fruit cut fine + +Soak gelatine in orange juice five minutes; dissolve in boiling water, +add sugar and lemon juice, and stir until sugar is dissolved; boil +twenty minutes; add rind, and, when nearly cold, add nuts and fruit and +pour into a small pan; let stand several hours, cut in cubes, and roll +in confectioners' sugar. Paste may be colored pink by adding red +gelatine to the orange juice. + + +696.--FRUIT WAFERS + + 1/2 pound prunes Juice and grated rind 1/2 lemon + 1/2 pound figs Confectioners' sugar + 1/2 pound dates + +Soak prunes and figs in cold water over night, drain and wipe dry; cut +prunes from stones, stone dates, and put all fruit through food chopper, +using finest cutter; add lemon rind, juice, and sugar enough to knead to +a firm paste; roll on a sugared board to one-fourth-inch thickness, and +cut in small rounds, squares, or diamonds. Or form paste into small +balls, and roll in coconut or chopped nut meats. One-half cup of finely +chopped nut meats may be added to the paste. This is an excellent +filling for stuffed dates. + + +697.--SPICED RAISINS + + 2 cups large raisins seeded 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon + 1/2 tablespoon butter 1/2 teaspoon mace + 2 tablespoons vinegar 1/4 teaspoon clove + 2 tablespoons water + +Cook very slowly until raisins are plump and liquid has evaporated. +Cool, and roll in granulated sugar. + + +698.--STUFFED DATES + +Wash one pound large dates, dry, and remove stones; stuff with plain +fondant, or fondant mixed with candied fruits or nuts; or stuff with a +seeded raisin, or a piece of date, fig, or pineapple.

In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. diff --git a/34509.zip b/34509.zip Binary files differnew file mode 100644 index 0000000..b9d23e6 --- /dev/null +++ b/34509.zip diff --git a/LICENSE.txt b/LICENSE.txt new file mode 100644 index 0000000..6312041 --- /dev/null +++ b/LICENSE.txt @@ -0,0 +1,11 @@ +This eBook, including all associated images, markup, improvements, +metadata, and any other content or labor, has been confirmed to be +in the PUBLIC DOMAIN IN THE UNITED STATES. + +Procedures for determining public domain status are described in +the "Copyright How-To" at https://www.gutenberg.org. + +No investigation has been made concerning possible copyrights in +jurisdictions other than the United States.
