Excerpt from A Text-Book of Cookery, for Use in Schools, Containing an Undergraduate Course of Study

The health and well-being of the different members of every family depend largely upon wholesome food, properly prepared, and the head of every family should have a knowledge of the physical needs of each member thereof, and understand how to meet them. It is not necessary for her to know how to prepare complicated dishes and costly compounds; but it is necessary for her to know what food principles the crude materials contain, and how and in what propor tion they should be grouped in a meal; and also in what articles the material needed is to be had at the least cost. But, above all, it is important for her to know how this food should be cooked so as to develop and preserve its nutritive qualities, and to render it most appetizing and digestible.
