H There are three things to be specially observed in con- nection with the rudiments of cookery, viz., cleanliness, punctuality, and eco7iomy, Cleanliness is one of the most important qualities a cook can possess. Without strict observance of this, the appear- ance of a dish is often spoiled, and the flavour destroyed. Nothing in cookery needs more careful attention than the state of the various utensils used for the purpose of cooking. Method is the essence of cookery, and there is no method without punctuality. Punctuality in the kitchen promotes the peace and happiness of a family. Good cookery is essentially economical, not only because food properly prepared is more wholesome, and likely to be used up quickly, therefore not allowed to “waste,” but also because a skilful and intelligent cook will be able to provide many tasty and nourishing dishes at a very small cost from vegetables, scraps, and coarse pieces of meat that might be otherwise cast aside as useless. A little careful management will enable her to practise true economy without stinginess.
