A PLAIN COOKERY BOOK

FOR THE

WORKING CLASSES.

 

BY

CHARLES ELMÉ FRANCATELLI,

LATE MAÎTRE D'HÔTEL AND CHIEF COOK TO HER MAJESTY THE
QUEEN. AUTHOR OF "THE MODERN COOK" AND
"THE COOK'S GUIDE."

NEW EDITION.  1852    LONDON:   FARRINGDON STREET.


ROUTLEDGE, WARNE, AND ROUTLEDGE,

 

Charles Elme Francatelli

My object in writing this little book is to show you how you may prepare and cook your daily food, so as to obtain from it the greatest amount of nourishment at the least possible expense; and thus, by skill and economy, add, at the same time, to your comfort and to your comparatively slender means. The Recipes which it contains will afford sufficient variety, from the simple every-day fare to more tasty dishes for the birthday, Christmas-day, or other festive occasions.

To those of my readers who, from sickness or other hindrance, have not money in store, I would say, strive to lay by a little of your weekly wages ... that your families may be well fed, and your homes made comfortable.
