Publisher's Synopsis
131 recipes. "Every recipe contained in this work is a genuine and well-proportioned mixture that contains nothing but what is essential to its perfection. The ingredients have been tested thousands of times, and every one can use them with the assurance that, if the directions are observed, the result will be satisfactory. There are many books of recipes that have been compiled, not by persons practically acquainted with the business, but by mere book makers, and are filled up with many worthless recipes that are not reliable, either for their ingredients or their proportions. This book is free of all such untried and impracticable mixtures, and is valuable for not only what it does, but what it does not contain. Follow the directions here given, and you will be sure not to waste time and ingredients on worthless mixtures, but have an article worth eating." C. L. QUINN
