Excerpt from The Practical Cook Book and Eonomical Housekeeper's Guide

A large proportion of the receipts have been procured from experienced housewives, and no efforts have been Spared to render each one as correct and as good as possible. The mode of cookery is such as is practiced generally by American house-keepers, and the receipts embrace all the various branches of the culinary art, from preparing the most simple broth, to making the most delicate creams and sweetmeats. The receipts are all intended to be written in such a plain manner, that the most unskilled need not err in attempting to follow the directions given.

In addition to the receipts for cooking, we have added Cookery for the Sick, Medicinal and Miscellaneous Receipts, which we trust will be found useful to the inexperienced. In conclusion, the writer would give her sincere thanks to those friends who have furnished her with their choice and valuable receipts; and to those into whose hands this book may fall, she would ask a fair trial of the receipts previous to passing judgment.
