VI. The PRACTICE OF COOKERY, adapted to the
Business of Evers-day Life. By Mrs. DALGAIRNS. In
one thick vol. price is. 6d.
" This is by far the most complete, and truly practical
work, which has yet appeared upon this subject. Mrs.
Dalgairns is not one of those imaginative and flowery pre-
ceptors, who think it necessary to mil in the aid of fiction
and fine writing, to give an interest to the engrossing and
important matters of which she treats—she proceeds to
business at once. Her book will be found an infallible
Cook's companion, and a treasure of great price to the
mistress of a family. It is stuffed choke-full of the most
important gastronomical information. It contains 1434
receipts, 95 of which are for soups, 115 for fish, 70 for
beef, 60 for veal, 31 for pork, 41 for poultry, 14 for cur-
ries, 104 for gravies, sauces, &c.; 66 for vegetables, 263
for puddings, pies, and tarts, 134 for creams, custards,
&c., 100 for cakes, &c., 82 for preserves, 61 for domestic
wines, 15 for the dairy, and 88 mi4cellaneous. Then we
have remarks, besides, on the poultry-yard, brewing, the
kitchen garden, bees, pigs, &c. With so many arguments
in its favour, we cannot doubt that the Practice of
Cookery' will soon find its way into a wide and useful
circulation."—Edinburgh Literary Journal, 18th April.
