Synopsis
Excerpt from The People's Home Recipe Book: Book II of the People's Home Library
Though the world is full of cook books of every description, yet it has been my experience that there are few of them that are more than a collection of recipes. There are few really good teachers of the science of cooking. For the past thirty years the author has been engaged in teaching of some kind, ranging from kindergarten work to assistant at Chicago University and from private teacher of cooking to Public Lecturer on Domestic Science. This training has not only given mea knowledge of the subjects in hand but has perhaps rendered me capable of imparting this knowledge to others in a way to be easily. Understood by all.
Having managed a home of my own for twelve years and having lived in both the country and the city have probably given me a knowledge of the practical needs of the average home. Further than this I am called upon reg ularly each week by 'phone to direct the culinary affairs of many Cleveland homes, thus giving me the practical experience which is lacking in so many teachers of Domestic Science. Furthermore, during the past five years I have delivered (and am still engaged in the lecture work) a series of over six hun dred public lectures on cooking, a larger number than ever before delivered on this subject by any woman in one place. These things have brought me in direct contact with thousands of people of all classes, given me a knowledge of their needs and at the same time fitted me for imparting this knowledge to others in a practical way.
Having been principal of private schools and being at the present time a member of The Domestic Science and Art Association of Cleveland, and The American Home Economics Association of Chicago, and also! State Secretary of The Associated Clubs of Domestic Science has brought me in contact with many of our ablest instructors in Domestic Science and afforded me an excellent opportunity to get the best and most modern ideas relative to the science of booking. These ideas I have endeavored to incorporate in this work, leaving out the technical things and making them practical for the home.
