WM. LYNDE HARRISON, - MISS G. CLERGUE. - - Mesdames: - -Vous desirez faire quelque chose pour venir en aide aux victimes de la -guerre en France et, dans ce but, vous publiez un livre utile dont vous -faites tous les frais d'impression de maniere a ce que le produit total -de la vente soit verse au Comite de Secours National de Paris. - -Le but que vous vous proposez est fort louable car les besoins sont -grands au pays de France. On a fait dernierement le recensement des -refugies belges et francais chasses de leurs demeures et recueillis -dans les diverses communes de France. Ils sont plus de 900,000 et -les allemands out renvoye en France par la voie de la Suisse plus -de 100,000 prisonniers--vieillards, femmes et enfants--qu'ils ne -voulaient plus nourrir et qui out ete rendus, denues de tout, a la -charite publique. Tous ces malheureux doivent etre vetus de la tete -aux pieds. Les Etats-Unis et le Canada out heureusement fait leur part -pour soulager cette grande infortune, grace aux appels reiteres de -l'American Relief Clearing House de Paris et de New-York et des divers -comites canadiens du Secours National de Paris, organises par le Comite -France-Amerique. - -Les hopitaux francais reclament aussi, a bon droit, notre sollicitude, -car c'est la France qui supporte le plus fort de l'assaut teuton -sur la frontiere de l'Ouest et ses blesses doivent depasser le demi -million. Devant cette grande detresse la Croix-Rouge americaine et -la Croix-Rouge canadienne ne sont pas demeurees indifferentes et -des milliers de caisses out ete envoyees aux hopitaux francais. -Malheureusement la liste des calamites qui out fondu sur la France ne -s'arrete pas la: tout le territore envahi par les troupes allemandes, -dont elles out ete chassees, qui va de la Marne a l'Aisne, et que -couvraient des centaines de villages prosperes dans une des regions -les plus fertiles et les plus riches de la France, a ete ravage -par les troupes ennemies. Les proprietaires de ces milliers de -fermes--vieillards, femmes et enfants--sont revenus a leurs foyers -detruits pour relever leurs maisons et faire produire a la terre la -nourriture dont ils ont besoin. Ils ont tout perdu: maisons, meubles, -vetements, animaux, instruments aratoires. Ce sont ces derniers qui -attirent particulierement votre commiseration. En face de cette misere -effroyable tous les coeurs s'emeuvent et chacun veut apporter son -aide a ces braves gens. Vous donnez au public une occasion facile et -agreable de faire ce geste en mettant a sa portee un livre interessant -dont le prix ira soulager les nobles victimes de la guerre en France. - -Je vous souhaite une forte recette. Veuillez agreer, mesdames, avec mes -felicitations, l'expression de mes sentiments distingues. - - [Illustration: R. Dandurand] - - _President du Comite France-Amerique - Section Canadienne._ - - - - -ALLIED FOOD - - -As soon as I heard of the proposed plan of this book I became -positively frantic to co-operate in it. The idea of a cookery book -which should contain Allied Recipes and Allied Recipes only, struck me -at once as one of the finest ideas of the day. - -For myself I have felt for some time past that the time is gone, and -gone for ever, when I can eat a German Pretzel or a Wiener Schnitzel. - -It gives me nothing but remorse to remember that there were days when -I tolerated, I may even say I enjoyed, Hungarian Goulash. I could not -eat it now. As for Bulgarian Boosh or Turkish Tch'kk, the mere names of -them make me ill. - -For me, for the rest of my life, it must be Allied Food or no food at -all. One may judge, therefore, with what delight I received the news -of this patriotic enterprise. I at once telegraphed to the editors the -following words: - -"Am willing to place at your service without charge entire knowledge of -cookery. Forty-six years' practical experience." - -To this telegram I received no reply. I am aware that there is, even -in cooking circles, a certain amount of professional jealousy. It may -be that I had overpassed the line of good taste in offering my entire -knowledge. I should have only offered part of it. - -I therefore resolved that instead of writing the whole book as I had at -first intended, I would content myself with sending to the editors, a -certain number of selected recipes of a kind calculated to put the book -in a class all by itself. - -I sent, in all, fifty recipes. I regret to say that after looking over -the pages of the book with the greatest care, and after looking also on -the back of them, I do not find my recipes included in it. The obvious -conclusion is that while this book was in the press my recipes were -stolen out of it. - -The various dishes that I had selected were of so distinctive a -character and the art involved in their preparation so entirely -_recherche_ that it seems a pity that they should be altogether lost. -They contained a certain _je ne sais quoi_ which would have marked them -out as emphatically the perquisite of the few. To say that they were -dishes for a king is to understate the fact. - -It is therefore merely in the public interest and from no sense of -personal vanity that I reproduce the substance of one or two of them in -this preface. There was a whole section, for example, on Eggs, which I -am extremely loath to lose. It showed how by holding an egg down under -boiling water till it is exhausted, it may be first cooked and then be -passed under a flat iron until it becomes an Egg Pancake. It may be -then given a thin coat of varnish and served in a railway restaurant -for years and years. - -I had also an excellent recipe for Rum Omelette. It read: "Take a -dipper full of rum and insert an omelette in it. Serve anywhere in -Ontario." I am convinced that this recipe alone would have been worth -its weight in rum. - -But it would be childish of me to lay too much stress on my own -personal disappointment or regret. When I realized what had happened -I felt at once that my co-operation in this book must take some other -form. I therefore sent to the editors a second telegram which read: - -"Am willing to eat free of charge all dishes contained in volume." - -This offer was immediately accepted, and I am happy to assure readers -of this book that I have eaten each and every one of the preparations -in the pages that follow. To prevent all doubt I make this statement -under oath. I had intended to make merely an honest statement of the -fact but my friends tell me that a statement under oath is better in -such a case than a mere honest statement. - - Stephen Leacock - - - - -FOREWORD - - God what a world! if men in street and mart - Felt that same impulse of the human heart - Which makes them in the hour of flame and flood - Rise to the meaning of true Brotherhood! - - -THE heart of the world throbs with sympathy for the suffering women and -children in the war-devastated countries of Europe. He who does not -long to be a helper in this hour of vast need and unprecedented anguish -must be made of something more adamant than stone. America owes a large -debt to the culinary artists of Europe. Without their originality and -finished skill, in the creation of savory dishes for the table, the -art of entertaining in our land could never have attained its present -perfection. - -Ever ready to incorporate in her own methods whatever other countries -had to offer as improvements, America has received from the epicurean -chefs of Europe conspicuous benefits. In every menu from coast to -coast, these facts make themselves evident. It is then fitting, that -at this crucial hour, we repay something of the debt we owe by -making this little cooking manual an instant and decided success, -knowing the proceeds from its sale will relieve such distress as we -in our sheltered homes can scarcely picture by the greatest effort of -imagination. - - Our souls should be vessels receiving - The waters of love for relieving - The sorrows of men. - For here lies the pleasure of living: - In taking God's bounties and giving - The gifts back again. - Ella Wheeler Wilcox - - - - -CHARLOTTE DE POMMES - - -Prendre des pommes reinettes epepinees, emincees et sautees au beurre -avec quelques pincees du sucre et une demi-gousse de vanille. - -De cette fondue de pommes qui ne doit pas etre trop cuite, on garnit -un moule a charlotte dont les parois auront ete revetues d'etroites -tranches de mie de pain trempees dans du beurre epure et saupoudre de -sucre. - -Ces tranches de pain doivent etre placees dans le moule, se -chevauchant, les unes sur les autres. - -Garnir le fond du moule d'une abaisse de pain de mie egalement beurree -et saupoudree de sucre. - -Recouvrir la charlotte d'une abaisse prise dans la croute du pain de -mie afin de la proteger contre l'action trop vive du calorique. - -Faire cuire la charlotte au four pendant 35 ou 40 minutes; la laisser -reposer pendant quelques minutes a l'etuve avant de la demouler, et la -servir avec une sauce a l'abricot, parfumee au Kirsch. - - Elise Jusserand - - _Ambassade de France aux Etats-Unis._ - March 2, 1916. - - - - -Allied Cookery - - - - -Soups - - -BOUILLABAISSE - -(The national dish of Marseille) - - Indeed, a rich and savory stew 'tis; - And true philosophers, methinks, - Who love all sorts of natural beauties, - Should love good victuals and good drinks. - And Cordelier or Benedictine - Might gladly, sure, his lot embrace, - Nor find a fast day too afflicting, - Which served him up a Bouillabaisse. - THACKERAY. - -Cut off the best parts of 3 medium-sized flounders and 6 butterfish and -put them aside; the remaining parts of the fish--skin, bones, heads, -etc.--boil in water 20 minutes; this should make 1 quart of fish stock -when strained. - -Put 3 tablespoons of olive oil in stew-pan, add 4 chopped onions, 3 -cloves of chopped garlic, a few sprigs of parsley, 1 bayleaf, 1/4 -teaspoon fennel, 1/4 teaspoon saffron, 1/2 teaspoon whole black pepper -ground, salt, fry until golden brown. Then add 3 or 4 tomatoes and a -pimento, 1/3 quart of white wine, 2/3 quart of water, boil 15 minutes. -Strain and return to the kettle; add the flounder and butterfish in -pieces as large as possible, 1/2 lb. of codfish tongues, 1 lb. of eel; -boil 10 minutes, add the fish stock, 1 lb. of scallops, boil 10 more -minutes. Rub together 1 oz. of flour and 1 oz. of butter; drop this in -the soup in little balls five minutes before serving. Then put in 1/2 -lb. of shrimps and 1 large boiled lobster cut in large pieces. Rub with -garlic some round slices of bread and serve the Bouillabaisse on them. - -This will serve 12 persons. - -One is not able to obtain here the varieties of fish of the Midi, but -the above will make an excellent substitute. - - -BORCHT - -(Russian) - -Make a clear, light-coloured, highly seasoned stock of beef and veal or -of chicken. Strain and remove all fat. A Russian gourmet will say that -really good Borcht should be made with 2 ducks and a chicken in the -stock. Cut up some red beets and boil them in the stock; about 4 large -beets to 8 cups of stock. When the beets are cooked squeeze in enough -lemon-juice to give it a slightly acid flavour, then clear by stirring -in the whipped white of an egg and bringing it to the boiling point. -Strain carefully. Serve in cups with a spoonful of sour cream. If the -colour fails to be bright red, a few drops of vegetable colouring may -be added. - - -MUSHROOM SOUP - -(French) - -Three-quarters lb. of fresh mushrooms, 1 cup of water, 2 tablespoons -of butter, 2 tablespoons of flour, 4 cups of scalded milk, 1/2 cup of -cream, a few gratings of nutmeg, salt, and pepper. - -Put the mushrooms in a stew-pan with 1 tablespoon of butter, a few -gratings of nutmeg, salt, and pepper, and 1 cup of water; cook over -a good fire 20 minutes, then pass through a coarse sieve. Cream 1 -tablespoon of butter with 2 tablespoons of flour, add this to 4 cups of -scalded milk. When this thickens to a thin cream, add the mushrooms; -just before serving add 1/2 cup of cream. - - -SERBIAN CHICKEN SOUP - -Cut a fowl in four or five pieces. Put in a kettle with about one -quart of water to each pound of fowl. When half cooked add salt and a -carrot, parsnip, some celery and parsley, an onion, and a few whole -black peppers. - -In a separate pan put a tablespoon of lard and 1/2 tablespoon of flour. -Stir this until it is brown and add some paprika, according to taste. -Add this to the soup. Let it boil a few minutes. Just before serving -the soup stir in well the yolk of an egg beaten with three tablespoons -of cream. - - -VEGETABLE SOUP - -(Minestrone alla Milanese) - -One-half quart of stock, 2 slices of lean pork, or a ham bone; 2 -tomatoes, fresh or canned; 1 cup of rice, 2 tablespoons of dried beans, -1 tablespoon of peas, fresh or canned; 2 onions. - -Put into the stock the slices of pork, cut into small pieces; or, if -desired, a ham bone may be substituted for the pork. Add the tomatoes, -cut into small pieces also, the onions, in small pieces, and the rice. -Boil all together until the rice is cooked. Then add the beans and the -peas and cook a little longer. The soup is ready when it is thick. If -desired, this chowder can be made with fish broth instead of the stock, -and with the addition of shrimps which have been taken from their -shells. - -This dish can be served hot or cold. - - -LETTUCE SOUP - -(Zuppa di Lattuga) - -One small lettuce, meat stock, 2 potatoes, the leaves of a head of -celery, 2 tablespoons of peas, fresh or canned, 1 heaping tablespoon of -flour. - -Put the potatoes, cold boiled, into the stock when it boils, add the -celery leaves, the lettuce chopped up, the peas, and the flour mixed -well with a little cold stock or water. Boil for one hour and a half, -and serve with little squares of fried bread. - - -POT-AU-FEU - -(French family soup) - -Ingredients.--4 lbs. of brisket of beef, the legs and neck of a fowl, -1/2 a cabbage, 2 leeks, 1 large onion, 2 carrots, a bouquet-garni -(parsley, thyme, bay-leaf), 1 dessert-spoonful of chopped parsley, 4 -cloves, 12 peppercorns, 1 tablespoonful of salt, 1/2 lb. of French -bread, 6 quarts of cold water. - -Put the meat and water into a stock-pot or boiling pot; let it come -gently to boiling point, and skim well. Wash and clean the vegetables, -stick the cloves in the onion, tie up the cabbage and leeks, and put -all in with the meat. Add the carrots cut into large pieces, the -bouquet-garni, peppercorns, and salt, and let the whole simmer gently -for 4 hours. Just before serving cut the bread into thin slices, place -them in a soup tureen, and add some of the carrot, leeks, and onions -cut into small pieces. Remove the meat from the pot, season the broth -to taste, and strain it into the soup tureen. Sprinkle the chopped -parsley on the top, and serve. The meat and remaining vegetables may be -served as a separate course; they may also be used up in some form for -another meal. Or the meat and vegetables may be served and the broth -put aside and used on the following day as "Croute-au-pot." - - -ONION SOUP - -(Soupe a l'Oignon) - -Slice or chop two medium-sized onions; let them colour an instant in 1 -oz. of butter; add a tablespoonful of flour; make a brown thickening. -The onions must on no account be allowed to burn. Add 2-1/2 quarts of -water, salt, and a pinch of pepper; stir on the fire until it boils; -let it cook five minutes. Cut some slices of bread very fine (like a -leaf); dry them in an open oven. Place in the tureen a layer of bread, -a layer of grated cheese, until the tureen is half full. Pass the soup -through a sieve into the tureen. Allow a few minutes to well soak the -bread; at the same time the soup must not be allowed to get cold. If -onions are not objected to do not strain them off. - - -SOLDIERS' SOUP - -(Soupe a la Bataille) - -Wash well and chop fine a small white cabbage or lettuce (cos -preferred), 1 carrot, 1 turnip, 3 leeks, 1 head of celery. Let these -vegetables take colour for about three minutes in 2 ozs. of good fat -or butter. Add 3 quarts of water and a pinch of salt; let it boil. Add -five raw potatoes cut like the vegetables, a handful of green French -beans cut up, the same quantity of green peas. Cook over a good fire -for two hours.

Salt and pepper to taste. Bouquet -garni--which means thyme, and if one likes the flavour, a leaf of bay -laurel--but for the latter just to let it be in an instant only, as it -has such a strong flavour. Many prefer just the thyme, which is more -delicate. Half an hour before the rabbit is cooked, add a good spoonful -of vinegar[1]; two, should the vinegar not be strong. Add a piece of -butter of the size of a walnut whilst it is simmering or stewing by the -side of the fire. - - -FOOTNOTE: -[1] The vinegar is quite optional. - - -SHEEP'S HEAD - -(Scotch) - -Choose a nice sheep's head, get it slightly singed, then have it sawn -up the middle, steep it all night with a little soda in the water, -then clean it thoroughly, take out the brains, put on with cold water, -slowly bring to boil, and boil slowly for three hours.

As this curry is not hot it is served -with a sambo which consists of small dishes on one tray containing such -savories as plain scraped cocoanut, pimento paste, and chopped onion -with a red pepper sauce. - -To obtain cocoanut cream, use the same process as that for ordinary -cream;--as for the milk: have 3 fresh cocoanuts scraped very fine to -which you add 3 pints of water, stir together for a few moments, then -strain, let this milk stand for 3 hours to obtain the cream. - - -A SIMPLER INDIAN CURRY - -One lb. of beef, mutton, fish, or vegetables, as desired.
