But one can ! I admit that it is no longer possible to provide the menus set forth in Chapter II for IO5. a head : to give them in their entirety and manag­ ing with the modicum of economy to which most English women of the servant-keeping class have become accustomed, they would now cost 125. 6d. to I5s. 6d. a week per head. But by simplifying the biUs of fare, choosing all provisions personally and paying cash, permit­ ting no waste, making the best of everything, eschewing expensive joints, using a considerable proportion of cheap meatless foods, substituting margarine for butter (for cooking at all events), home-made for bought bread, condensed milk xi TEN SHILLINGS A HEAD (for soups, sauces and puddings) instead of fresh milk, and employing egg powder and custard powder where possible, still you may live nourish- ingly and not unattractively at a cost of 105. per head per week. Having made this statement let me try and show that I do not deviate from the truth in so saying. THE PRINCIPLES OF ECONOMICAL CATERING In the first place, please read this book care­ fully and learn from it the principles of economic catering. These have not changed since the book was first written. Let us proceed to deal with the question of PERSONAL SHOPPING " I haven't time," is the objection. Then you must make time, for unless you do give time and also thought to the catering you will not be able to live cheaply. The advan­ tages of personal shopping are that— You taJce advantage of the marJcet. Prices fluctuate considerably: if there is a glut of cauliflowers, cauliflowers will be cheap. Sometimes bananas are cheap and oranges dear, and vice versa. To-day cod is relatively Xll AT INCREASED PRICES inexpensive and to-morrow you can buy sprats or herrings at bargain prices. You buy just what you want. You see it weighed and in many cases bring it home with you. (Yes, a market basket will soon become quite the fashionable wear !) When you order from the man at the door you are often sent more of everything than you order, and you are often charged for more than you receive, for it is almost impossible to persuade cooks to weigh food, to com­ pare the quality sent with the docket, and to report inaccuracies. You buy at ready money prices. Credit and delivery prices are considerably higher. You vary the menus more because you see things and obtain new ideas from what you see. If your time is valuable it is by no means necessary to shop every day. With careful organization two shopping expeditions per week should suffice; on Monday and Friday for example. The greater part of the groceries can be ordered once a week if the numbers to be fed do not vary much. Only the perishable things need to be ordered twice or thrice a week, xiii TEN SHILLINGS A HEAD though of course I do not mean to say that an occasional extra visit to a shop may not have to be made, or an order sent by postcard or telephoned. Also let me suggest that it is not a law of the Medes and Persians that the catering should not be done in the afternoon. ORDERING IN ADVANCE If we are not to waste valuable time the menus must be planned in advance to some extent. Let us peruse the following week's bills of fare and see how, with organization, the time of caterer and cook and much fuel may be saved by taking thought for the morrow. los. A HEAD MENUS for a family of not less than five, including children and servants. The lOs. cover food, tea, coffee, cocoa and cleaning materials only. (See paragraph re cleaning materials on page XXV.) MEALS. Breakfast, luncheon, tea, dinner. Tea is given at breakfast on mornings when there is a fish, meat or egg dish, coffee or cocoa (more nourishing because of the greater quantity of milk used) when there is porridge only, which is on alternate mornings. xiv AT INCREASED PRICES Jfrtoas BREAKFAST Kippers Hot rolls (spread with margarine) Toast and marmalade LUNCH (Servants' and children's dinner) CasBerole of beef (shin or pieces) with haricot beans and onions Blanc-mange and stewed fruit DINNER Soup SemoUna rissoles Sweet Saturbas BREAKFAST Coffee or cocoa Porridge Toast Honey LUNCH Pudding or pie of beef Vegetables Milk pudding DINNER Soup.

BREAKFAST Porridge LUNCH Soup Suet pudding DINNER Soup Fish rissoles Saute potatoes Savoury toa-ib BREAKFAST Bacon and saute potatoes LUNCH Savoury macaroni Cornflour and jam pudding DINNER Soup Mince with poached eggs Vegetables Sweet or savoury xvi AT INCREASED PRICES On Friday you must plan the meals for Saturday, Sunday and Monday as far as luncheon, and give all your orders at the shops. You buy shin of beef and use part for a casserole, leaving enough for a beefsteak pudding, pie oT stew, and for a jelly pie for Sunday. You also order a fore-quarter of New Zealand mutton to come in on Saturday. (I take it that you have a good larder and that the weather is cool: dog day catering is a different matter.) On Monday you take stock again. There is some of the shoulder of mutton, possibly remains of jelly pie and of stew. Nothing must be thrown away, for even a few tablespoonfuls of mince will suffice for the stuffed potatoes for Tuesday night's dinner. On Wednesday, soup and a plain substantial suet pudding for lunch will serve, and there is fish for dinner. Planning the meals thus in advance you can see what to order, and make out your list of vegetables, pudding materials, fish, meat, etc., accordingly. Ordering in advance is labour and money saving, and it enables a sensible cook to arrange her time to the best advantage and to get the greater part of her cooking done on T.S. xvii b TEN SHILLINGS A HEAD COOKING MORNINGS, during which she prepares stock, makes a batch of pastry and cakes, planning to use the oven when it must be heated for roasting a joint, for it is most wasteful of fuel (be it coal or gas) to heat the ovens half a dozen times, when twice could be made to do.

  • Good Things to Eat As Suggested by Rufus, by Rufus Estes
    GOOD THINGS TO EAT AS SUGGESTED BY RUFUS A COLLECTION OF PRACTICAL RECIPES FOR PREPARING MEATS, GAME, FOWL, FISH, PUDDINGS, PASTRIES, ETC. BY RUFUS ESTES FORMERLY OF THE PULLMAN COMPANY PRIVATE CAR SERVICE, AND PRESENT CHEF OF THE SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES OF THE UNITED STATES STEEL CORPORATIONS IN CHICAGO CHICAGO PUBLISHED BY THE AUTHOR 1911 Copyrighted 1911 By Rufus Estes, Chicago FOREWORD hat the average parent is blind to the faults of its offspring is a fact so obvious that in attempting to prove or controvert it time and logic are both wasted. Ill temper in a child is, alas! too often mistaken for an indication of genius; and impudence is sometimes regarded as a sign of precocity. The author, however, has honestly striven to avoid this common prejudice. This book, the child of his brain, and experience, extending over a long period of time and varying environment, he frankly admits is not without its faults—is far from perfect; but he is satisfied that, notwithstanding its apparent shortcomings, it will serve in a humble way some useful purpose. The recipes given in the following pages represent the labor of years. Their worth has been demonstrated, not experimentally, but by actual tests, day by day and month by month, under dissimilar, and, in many instances, not too favorable conditions. One of the pleasures in life to the normal man is good eating, and if it be true that real happiness consists in making others happy, the author can at least feel a sense of gratification in the thought that his attempts to satisfy the cravings of the inner man have not been wholly unappreciated by the many that he has had the pleasure of serving—some of whom are now his stanchest friends.

The typical cooking, course teaches the art by means of separate dishes, leaving the student at a loss when it comes to combining them or to preparing whole meals of several dishes at the same time. The beginner, with only a cook book for a guide, often attempts the most difficult and complicated dishes first, with failure and discouragement, loss of time and materials as the result. The cook book gives little help in serving whole- some food combination and a balanced diet. It does not answer the ever-present question, "What shall be provided for today, for tomorrow, for the day after?" In this series of lessons is presented a systematic cor- respondence course in the cooking of meals, with detailed directions, not only for cooking the separate dishes, but also for preparing and serving each meal as a whole.

THE COMPLETE COOK BOOK. Cookery is eminently an experimental and a practi- cal art. Each day, while it adds to our experience, increases also our knowledge; and as we have come long after the Greeks and Romans, and have had the benefit of their experience, it is no marvel that we should have greatly surpassed them. In the fifth cen- tury, all trace of the Roman cookery had already dis- appeared. The Eternal City was invested, and her kitchen destroyed by barbarians. The consecutive in- cursions of hordes of barbarous tribes and nations had put out at once the light of science and the fire of cookery. But the darkness of the world was not of long dura- tion. The monks—the much-abused and much mis- taken monks—fanned the embers of a nascent literature, and cherished the flame of a new cookery. The free cities of Italy, Genoa, Venice, Pisa, Florence, the com- mon mothers of poetry, painting, sculpture, and archi- tecture, contemporaneously revived the gastronomic taste.
