HEARTH AND HOME. — “ Mrs. Peel, who is well known to Hearth and Home readers, appreciates the difficulties which the domestic reformer has to encounter, and her advice is based upon experience and knowledge. She has written a business-like book in a business-like way, and each group of recipes is prefaced by a few explanatory remarks, without which many mistresses would be at fault. It will help the ignorant mistress to better things, and it is full of shrewd advice of which the practised hand need not be ashamed to acknowledge the utility.” G THE SINGLE HANDED COOK Soups, Sauces, Glazes, Batters. — The Rendering down and Clarifying of Fat. — Fish. — Meat Dishes. — Poultry and Game. — Vegetables and Salads. — Puddings (Baked, Boiled, Steamed), Shapes, Creams, Jellies, Custards, Pastry. — Savouries and Breakfast Dishes. — Cakes, Buns, Biscuits and Scones. — The Management of the Oven. — Index.
