composition of food materials
The selection of menus requires considerable thought
and knowledge of the tastes of the individuals to be served,
together with the composition and nutritive value of the
foods, their cost, and what the market offers.
A marketing list of available foods and their prices can
be easily arranged and will prove of great value to a house-
keeper in her visits to market and in planning her meals.
PLANNING MENUS 309
Well-balanced dietaries may be provided with little
work by using instinct and good judgment in the selection
of food combinations and by avoiding too many foods
of the same kind.
Breakfast consists of three courses: (1) fruit, (2) cereal
and (3) meat courses. Serve each course separately, and
remove all dishes pertaining to each course before serving
the next. Serve fruit on small plates set on the service
plate. Pass finger bowls after the fruit course.
Serve the cereal in a tureen, set in front of the host, and
place cereal dishes to host's left. The waitress removes
the cover for the host; allow no water to drip on the cloth.
Remove tureen after cereal is served.
The meat course may consist of meat, eggs, potatoes,
toast, bread, and cakes, and is served by the host and on
warm plates. The hostess pours the coffee at the beginning
of the meat course.
