520 _a"A Handbook of Cookery for a Small House" by Jessie Conrad is a practical cookery guide written in the early 20th century. This text serves as a manual for those aiming to prepare meals in smaller households efficiently, emphasizing the moral and practical aspects of cooking. It covers a variety of topics, including kitchen requisites, treatment of ingredients, and offers numerous recipes suitable for everyday cooking. The opening of the book starts with a preface by Joseph Conrad, who extols the virtues of good cooking, positing it as a significant factor contributing to human happiness and social decorum. He outlines the author's aim to provide clear and concise guidance for cooking in a small household, a task he regards as both noble and virtuous. Following the preface, the text begins discussing the essentials of kitchen tools and practices, advising on time management in meal preparation and how to avoid the common pitfalls that result in unwanted odors during cooking. The focus on conscientious cooking as a means to foster a serene domestic environment is clear from the very start. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
