J. Rosalie Benton, in this 1886 cookbook, sought to provide the home cook not only with a variety of tested recipes, but also with directions on how to cook. Arranged by the departments Breakfast, Luncheon, Dinner and Tea, she sought to give housekeepers a variety of ideas for different meals. Directed at households of moderate means, there is special attention given to teaching homemakers how to use left-overs in appealing ways.
