Synopsis
"The Practical Cook Book" by Elizabeth O. Hiller is a comprehensive early 20th-century cookbook that compiles practical recipes and systematic kitchen instruction. Compiled and arranged by Hiller, a former principal of the Chicago Domestic Science Training School and lecturer on household science, the volume offers not only recipes across beverages, breads, cereals, meats, vegetables, desserts, and canapes, but also guidance on measuring, ingredient combinations, and the management of a gas range. It emphasizes a scientific approach to cookery, presenting methods such as boiling, stewing, braising, roasting, broiling, baking, and frying, with explicit temperatures, timings, and equipment (including oven guides and gas meter reading). The book aims to empower home cooks and schoolgirls to cook with precision and confidence, treating cookery as both an art and a science. First published in 1910, the work reflects the domestic science education of its era and remains a useful reference for historical cooking practices.
