Excerpt from The Family Herald Cook Book There are two things which the handy man, or that other treasure, the handy boy. Could make in order to bring the home kitchen nearer the hundred per cent. Mark for efficiency. One is a work-table on castors. Make it about five feet long and not more than three feet wide. Light - weight wood is preferable. Fit a shelf into the lower part about a foot from the floor and fasten firmly into the stout legs of the table. Round the edges of both top and table and then cover with best quality smooth zinc tacked well to the under side. Hot pans may be placed directly on the table, the utensils used most frequently may be stored on the shelf, and the zinc is easily cleaned and always beautifully bright. Two drawers for holding knives, cooking forks and spoons, cork-screw, meat forks, and basting spoons, will add to the usefulness of this table, but it is better to make no permanent divisions. Shallow paste-board boxes are more satisfactory and easily cleaned and renewed as well as read justed. Another arrangement of shelves is patterned after the compact book shelves that revolve on a four-footed base. The often-used utensils can be stored in this way beside the table.

This is a new edition of Herald Press's all-time best-selling cookbook, helping thousands of families establish a climate of joy and concern for others at mealtime. The late author's introductory chapters have been edited and revised for today's cooks. Statistics and nutritional information have been updated to reflect current American and Canadian eating habits, health issues, and diet guidelines. The new U.S. food chart "My Plate" was slipped in at the last minute and placed alongside Canada's Food Guide. But the message has changed little from the one that Doris Janzen Longacre promoted in 1976, when the first edition of this cookbook was released. In many ways she was ahead of her time in advocating for people to eat more whole grains and more vegetables and fruits, with less meat, saturated fat, and sugars. This book is part of the World Community Cookbook series that is published in cooperation with Mennonite Central Committee, a worldwide ministry of relief, development, and peace. "Mennonites are widely recognized as good cooks. But Mennonites are also a people who care about the world’s hungry."—Doris Janzen Longacre

The Cuban Table is a comprehensive, contemporary overview of Cuban food, recipes and culture as recounted by serious home cooks and professional chefs, restaurateurs and food writers. Cuban-American food writer Ana Sofia Pelaez and award-winning photographer Ellen Silverman traveled through Cuba, Miami and New York to document and learn about traditional Cuban cooking from a wide range of authentic sources. Cuban home cooks are fiercely protective of their secrets. Content with a private kind of renown, they demonstrate an elusive turn of hand that transforms simple recipes into bright and memorable meals that draw family and friends to their tables time and again. More than just a list of ingredients or series of steps, Cuban cooks' tricks and touches hide in plain sight, staying within families or being passed down in well-worn copies of old cookbooks largely unread outside of the Cuban community. Here you'll find documented recipes for everything from iconic Cuban sandwiches to rich stews with Spanish accents and African ingredients, accompanied by details about historical context and insight into cultural nuances. More than a cookbook, The Cuban Table is a celebration of Cuban cooking, culture and cuisine. With stunning photographs throughout and over 110 deliciously authentic recipes this cookbook invites you into one of the Caribbean's most interesting and vibrant cuisines.

Excerpt from Brill's Family Recipe Book In issuing this, om first number of Brill's Receipt Book, we aim to make it brief, comprehensive and prae tical. A general, rather than a scientific arrangement has been adopted, as the object of the work is popular and universal, and though useful to men of science, it is more especially addressed to practical persons, heads of fami lies, and the public at large. There are few persons who will not find on looking over its pages, some article that will interest them, and be of some use and advantage to them. The sources from which the materials of the work have been gathered, render it deserving of the utmost confidence; 3. Large portion having been derived from personal experience. The publisher therefpre presents to the mistresses and managers of domestic economy, the various classes of experimental artisans and men of busi ness, both operative and traders, a volume which will be universally admitted to be superior to every preceding collection of receipts for general utility.
