Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Twenty-Five Cent Dinners for Families of Six
The cheapest kinds of food are sometimes the most wholesome and strengthening; but in order to Obtain all their best qualities we must know how to choose them for their freshness, goodness, and suitability to our needs. That done, we must know how to cook them, so as to make savory and nutritious meals instead of tasteless or sodden messes, the eating whereof sends the man to the liquor shop for consolation.
Good food, properly cooked, gives us good blood, sound bones, healthy brains, strong nerves, and firm ?esh, to say nothing of good tempers and kind hearts. These are surely worth a little trouble to secure.
