PREFACE.
This little work is not intended as a cookery book
in the usual acceptance of the word ; it is merely
what the title indicates, viz. a few tempting and in-
expensive recipes within the scope of everybody’s
cookery, and which I have been induced to collect
from many requests to do so. The plainest of
general servants should be able to manage any of
these dishes, and so vary the meals of those families
having small incomes, whose purses cannot afford
entrees, entremets, and savouries, and who would be
glad to have relishing dishes now and then ; and
there is no reason why they should be debarred
from them, as so many can be made easily and in-
expensively.
A few persons have remarked that in my
ci la mode series of Cookery Books (which the
public have kindly made so popular) many of
the recipes are too extravagant for short purses,
but I may mention that in those little volumes there
are recipes of all kinds to suit all incomes. A
recipe is often pronounced extravagant if the cook
sees cream in it ; but any cook who knows some-
thing of the culinary art would understand that a
tablespoonful of cream goes a long way in entrees

and savouries. Those little jugs of cream, price
sixpence, sold everywhere now, are invaluable, and
when opened they will keep quite fresh if placed
in the cool and stood in cold water. If one of
these is always kept in the house it will not, I
think, be found an expensive luxury.
