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 VI TEMPTING DISHES. 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.
