-
-PREFACE.
-
-
-Of the making of Cookery Books, we are told, there is no end, but the
-comparative worthlessness of their contents for practical domestic
-purposes is no doubt the reason why there is still as great a demand as
-ever for a thoroughly reliable and up-to-date volume.
-
-The little book I now offer to the public, claims to be the _best,
-cheapest, and most useful_ Culinary Handbook yet produced, and I
-venture to think its contents will fully justify this assertion.
-
-A large proportion of the recipes are my _own compilation_, and all
-alike have been _carefully revised and repeatedly tested_.
-
-Every recipe has been arranged with a view to _practical usefulness_,
-and may be confidently recommended for _ease of preparation_,
-_daintiness_, and _economy_.
-
-Those who once use the “IDEAL COOKERY BOOK,” will afterwards use no
-other, not because their years have been shortened by bad cooking and
-unwholesome food, but because they recognise in it all the qualities it
-claims to possess, and are able by its aid to _realize in the home the
-true “Ideal” of the Culinary Art_.

-V. CAKES.
-
-
-A few hints about Cakes.
-
-Unless otherwise specified the general rule in making cakes is to cream
-the butter and sugar together, then add the eggs, then flour and baking
-powder (mix the baking powder with the flour) and then add fruit or
-other ingredients and beat well. If fruit is to be added do not make
-the cake very soft, or currants, &c., will be liable to sink, but they
-are less likely to do so if previously rubbed in flour.
-
-Always grease cake tins with lard as the cakes will be less liable to
-burn than if the tins are rubbed with butter.
-
-Do not open the oven door for at least twenty minutes after cakes are
-put in, and then do it very gently as a sudden action will tend to make
-a cake sink in the middle.

-things (which should have been mixed together in a jar), and stir often
-until cold. Bottle and cork.
-
-
-5. Lemon Squash.
-

-
-
-IX. ADDITIONAL USEFUL RECIPES.
-
-
-1. To bottle Green Gooseberries.
-
-(_Very Good_).
-
-Make the bottles hot and dry in the oven, then fill with picked fruit,
-not too full. Pour boiling water over, covering the berries to the top
-of the bottle. Cork down as soon as possible, and keep in a cool dry
-place. Any other fruit can be done the same way.
-
-
-2. Gooseberry Jelly.
-
- ½-stone green gooseberries.
- 2-quarts water.
-
-Boil together to pulp, tie in a coarse cloth and let it drip all night,
-then add 1-lb. sugar to each pint of juice. Boil gently ¾-hour, and
-pour into pots.
-
-
-3. Apple Jelly.
-
-Rub the apples, and cut them up without paring or coring them. Put in
-a pan and fill with water. Boil 1 hour. Put in a bag and strain. Allow
-¾-lbs. sugar to 1 pint of juice, and boil 1 hour. Put a little into a
-saucer, and if it jellies it is done. Pour into pots.
-
-
-4. Cough Mixture.
-
- 1d. licorice.
- 1d. anise seed.
- 1d. peppermint.
- 1d. common treacle.
- 1d. laudanum.
-
-Mix with 1½-pints of cold water and bottle.
-
-
-5. Pork Pie Pastry.
-
-To every 1-lb. of flour allow 6-ozs. of lard and 1 dessertspoonful of
-salt. Rub the lard into the flour, boil some milk and mix to a stiff
-paste. Take some cake tins and take out the bottoms and line with the
-warm paste. Three parts fill with minced pork and put a cover about 1
-inch thick on the top. Make a hole in the centre and decorate. Place in
-a fairly hot oven and bake about 2 hours. Brush with yolk of egg just
-before they are cooked.
-
-When the pies are cold, pour into the hole in the top some gelatine,
-which has been previously dissolved in boiling water.
-
-If better pastry is required, add more lard, or use butter instead.
-
-
-6. Recipe for Keeping Eggs.
-
-Take a large stew pot, or deep bowl, and put a layer of common salt in
-the bottom. Then insert a few eggs with the thin end downwards, and in
-such a way that they do not touch each other. Then put another layer of
-salt on the top, and repeat the process until the pot is full, having
-salt as the top layer. Tie down very tightly, and whenever an egg is
-taken out take care to tie down again. Be sure the eggs are fresh, and
-have not been much shaken, and they will keep good for months.

- agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the Project
- Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments must be paid
- within 60 days following each date on which you prepare (or are

-
-• You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
- you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
- does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg™
- License. You must require such a user to return or destroy all
- copies of the works possessed in a physical medium and discontinue
- all use of and all access to other copies of Project Gutenberg™
- works.
-
-• You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of

-
-1.E.9. If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project
-Gutenberg™ electronic work or group of works on different terms than
-are set forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing
-from the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the manager of
-the Project Gutenberg™ trademark. Contact the Foundation as set
-forth in Section 3 below.
-
-1.F.
-
-1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
-effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
-works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project
-Gutenberg™ collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg™
-electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may
-contain “Defects,” such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate
-or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other
-intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or
-other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or
-cannot be read by your equipment.
-
-1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the “Right
-of Replacement or Refund” described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
-Gutenberg™ trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
-Gutenberg™ electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
-liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
-fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
-LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
-PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE

-DAMAGE.
-
-1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
-defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
-receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
-written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
-received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium
-with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you
-with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in
-lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person
-or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second
-opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If
-the second copy is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing
-without further opportunities to fix the problem.
-
-1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
-in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you “AS-IS”, WITH NO

-
-1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
-warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of
-damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement
-violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the
-agreement shall be interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or
-limitation permitted by the applicable state law. The invalidity or

-remaining provisions.
-
-1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the

-including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of
-the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this
-or any Project Gutenberg™ work, (b) alteration, modification, or
-additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg™ work, and (c) any
-Defect you cause.
-
-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg™
-
-Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™'s
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ 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 information page at
-www.gutenberg.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. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by
-U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
-
-The Foundation's business office is located at 809 North 1500 West,
-Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up
-to date contact information can be found at the Foundation's website
-and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact
-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without
-widespread 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 www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-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 checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg™ electronic works
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright 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 website which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™,
-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.

-
-<p class="drop-cap">OF the making of Cookery Books, we are told,
-there is no end, but the comparative worthlessness
-of their contents for practical domestic purposes
-is no doubt the reason why there is still as great a
-demand as ever for a thoroughly reliable and up-to-date
-volume.</p>
-
-<p>The little book I now offer to the public, claims to
-be the <i>best, cheapest, and most useful</i> Culinary Handbook
-yet produced, and I venture to think its contents will
-fully justify this assertion.</p>
-
-<p>A large proportion of the recipes are my <i>own compilation</i>,
-and all alike have been <i>carefully revised and
-repeatedly tested</i>.</p>
-
-<p>Every recipe has been arranged with a view to
-<i>practical usefulness</i>, and may be confidently recommended
-for <i>ease of preparation</i>, <i>daintiness</i>, and <i>economy</i>.</p>
-
-<p>Those who once use the “<span class="smcap">Ideal Cookery Book</span>,”
-will afterwards use no other, not because their years
-have been shortened by bad cooking and unwholesome
-food, but because they recognise in it all the qualities
-it claims to possess, and are able by its aid to <i>realize
-in the home the true “Ideal” of the Culinary Art</i>.</p>

-<h3>A few hints about Cakes.</h3>
-
-<p>Unless otherwise specified the general rule in making
-cakes is to cream the butter and sugar together, then
-add the eggs, then flour and baking powder (mix the
-baking powder with the flour) and then add fruit or
-other ingredients and beat well. If fruit is to be
-added do not make the cake very soft, or currants, &amp;c.,
-will be liable to sink, but they are less likely to do so
-if previously rubbed in flour.</p>
-
-<p>Always grease cake tins with lard as the cakes will
-be less liable to burn than if the tins are rubbed with
-butter.</p>
-
-<p>Do not open the oven door for at least twenty
-minutes after cakes are put in, and then do it very
-gently as a sudden action will tend to make a cake
-sink in the middle.</p>

-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

-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United

-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
