By R. O. C.,
Compiler of the “ OfiBcial Handbook for the National Training School
for Cookery.” Crown 8vo. Is.
Prom “THE TIMES.”
“ The success which has attended the publication of the Official Handbook of the National
Training School for Cookery— a collection of recipes, indeed, rather than a handbook in the
accepted sense of the title— has encouraged the compiler, R. O. C., to issue a shilling
pamphlet entitled * Breakfast and Savouiy* Dishes,’ for the preparation of which forty-three
recipes have been drawn up with careful detail. Loose phraseology of the old cookery books,
such as take a ‘ little ’ or a ‘ pinch’ or a ‘ spoonful,’ and so forth, is discarded, and precis,
terms and quantities are used instead. At the head of each recipe the quantity of ingredients
required for carrying out the recipe, and the cost thereof, are given. Of the forty-three
recipes three are allotted to the preparation of potables in ordinary use at the British break-
fast-table. A warning note is sounded against allowing tea to stand longer than five minutes,
after which the decoction becomes charged with an unwholesome amount of tannin.
Deliberate operations are insisted upon for the making of good coffee, and the use and re-use
of cocoa-nibs are expounded. Then follow ten methods of making breads, scones, galettes,
muffins, crumpets, oat-cakes, short-bread, milk-rolls, and Yorkshire tea-cakes. Somersetshire
girdle (or gridiron) cake niight very well have been added to this list.
