, The cook must pay continual attention to the condition of her stew-pans, soup-kettles, &.c. which should be examined every time they are used. The prudent housewife will carefully examine the condition of them herself at least once a month. Their covers also must be kept perfectly clean and well tinned, and the pans not only on the inside, but abotit a couple of inches on the outside: many mischiefs arise from their getting out of repair; and if not kept nicely tinned, all your good work will be in vain; the broths and soups will look green and dirty, taste bitter and poisonous, and will be spoiled both for the eye and palate, and your credit will be lost. The health, and even life of the family, depends upon this, and the cook may be sure her employers had rather pay the tinman's bill than the doctor's; therefore, attention to cannot fail to engage the regard of the mistress, between whom and the cook it will be my utmost endeavor to promote perfect harmony. If she has the misfortune to scorch or blister the tinning of her pan, which will happen sometimes to the most careful cook, I advise her, by all means, immediately to acquaint her employers, who will thank her for candidly mentioning an accident; and censure her deservedly if she conceal it. Take care to be properly provided with sieves and tammy cloths, spoons and ladles. it a rule without an exception, never to use them till they are well cleaned and thoroughly dried, nor any stew-pans, &c. without first washing them out with and rubbing them well with a dry cloth and a little bran, to clean them from grease, sand, &LC., or any bad smell they may have got since they were last used: never neglect this. Though we do not suppose our cook to be such a naughty slut as to wilfully neglect her broth-pots, &c., yet we may recommend her to wash them immediately, and take care they are thoroughly dried at the fire, before they are put by, and to keep them in a dry place, for damp will rust and destroy them very soon: attend to this the first moment you can spare after the dinner is sent up. Never put by any soup, gravy, &c. in metal utensils; never keep any thing longer than is absolutely necessary for the purposes of cookery; the acid, vegetables, fat, &c. employed in making soups, &c. are capable of dissolving such utensils: fore stone or earthern vessels should be used for this purpose. Stew-pans, soup-pots, and preserving pans, with thick and round bottoms (such as saucepans are made with), will wear twice as long, and are cleaned with half the trouble, as those whose sides are soldered to the bottom, for sand and grease get the joined part, and cookeys say that it is next to an impossibility to dislodge it, even if their nails are as long as Nebuchadnezzar's. Take care that the lids fit as close as possible, that the From The Cook's Own Book, 1832, page 33. Read from the scan by computer, so a word may be off; the page itself shows the original. | |

soup, and sauces, Stc. may not waste by evaporation. good for nothing, unless they fit tight enough to keep the steam in and the smoke out. Stew-pans and saucepans should be always bright on the upper rim, where the fire does not burn them; but to scour them all over is not only giving the cook needless trouble, but wearing out the vessels. Lean, juicy beef, mutton, or veal, form the basis of broth; procure those pieces which afford the richest succulence, and as fresh killed as possible. Stale meat will make broth grouty and bad tasted, and fat meat is wasted. This only applies to those broths which are perfectly clear: clarified drippings may be so combined with vegetable mucilage, as to afford, at the cost of one penny per quart, a nourishing and palatable soup, fully adequate to satisfy appetite and support strength: open a new source to those benevolent housekeepers, who are disposed to relieve the poor, will show the industrious classes how much they have it in their power to assist themselves, and rescue them from being objects of charity dependent on the precarious bounty of others, by teaching them how they may obtain a cheap, abundant, salubrious, and agreeable aliment for themselves and families. This soup has the advantage of being very easily and very soon made, with no more fuel than is necessary to warm a room. who have not tasted it, cannot imagine what a salubrious, savory, and satisfying meal is produced by the judicious combination of cheap homely ingredients. The general fault of our soups seems to be the employment of an excess of spice, and too small a portion of roots and herbs. There is no French dinner without soup, which is regarded as an indispensable overture; and believe it an excellent plan to begin the banquet with a basin of good soup, which, by moderating the appetite for solid animal food, is certainly a salutiferous custom. We again caution the cook to avoid over-seasoning, especially with predominant flavors, which, however agreeable they may be to some, are extremely disagreeable to others. Zest, soy, cavice, coratch, anchovy, curry powder, savory ragout powder, soup herb powder, browning, ketchups, liquor, beer, wine, and and spice, are convenient auxiliaries to finish soups, &.c. The proportion of wine should not exceed a large wine-glassful to a quart of soup. is as can be admitted, the vinous becoming remarkably predominant; though not only much larger quantities of wine (of which claret is incomparably the best, because it contains less spirit and more flavor, and English palates are less acquainted with it), but even veritable cau de vie is ordered in many books, and used by many (especially tavern cooks). So much are their soups overloaded From The Cook's Own Book, 1832, page 34. Read from the scan by computer, so a word may be off; the page itself shows the original. | |

XXY with relish, that if you will eat enough of them they will certainly make you drunk, if they don't make you sick: all this frequently arises from an old cook measuring the excitability of the eaters' palates by his own, which may be so blunted by incessant tasting, to awaken it, requires win? of water, and cayenne and garlic for black pepper and onion. The art of composing a rich soup is so to proportion the several ingredients one to another, that no particular taste be stronger than the rest, but to produce such a fine harmonious relish that is delightful. This requires that judicious combination of the materials which constitutes the "cluf d'ceuvre" of culinary science. place, take care that the roots and herbs be perfectly well cleaned; proportion the water to the quantity of meat and other ingredients, generally a pound of meat water for soups, and double for gravies. stew gently, little more water need be at first than is expected at the end; for when the pot is covered quite the fire gentle, very little is wasted. Gentle stewing is incomparably the best; the meat is more tender, and the soup better flavored. It is importance the cover of a soup-kettle fit very close, or the broth will evaporate before you are aware of it. Place your soup-pot over a moderate fire, which will make the witter hot without causing for at least half an hour; if boils immediately, it not penetrate and cleanse it from the clotted blood, and other matters which ought to go off' in scum; the meat will be hardened all over by violent heat; shrink up as if it was scorched, and give hardly any gravy: on the contrary, by keeping the water a certain time heating without boiling, the meat swells, becomes tender, its fibres arfe dilated, and it yields a quantity of scum, which must be taken off as soon as it appears. It after a good half hour's hot infusion that we may mend the fire, and make the pot boil: still continue to remove the and when no more appears, put in the vegetables, &c. and a These will cause more scum to rise, which must be taken off immediately; then cover the pot very closely, and place it at a proper distance from the fire, where it will boil very gently, and equally, and by no means fast. By quick and strong boiling the volatile and finest parts of tho ingredients are evaporated, and fly off with the steam, and the coarser parts are rendered soluble; so you lose the good, and get the bad. Soups will generally take from three to six hours.

LAMB, Is a and commonly considered tender meat; but those who talk of tender lamb, while they are thinking of the age of the animal, forget that even a chicken must be kept a proper time after it has been killed, or it will be tough picking. To the accompaniments of meat, green mint sauce, and a salad, is commonly added; and some cooks, about minutes before it is done, sprinkle it with a little fresh gathered and finely minced parsley. - Lamb, and all young meats, ought to be thoroughly done; therefore do not take either lamb or veal off the spit till you see it drop white gravy. When green mint cannot be got, mint vinegar is an acceptable substitute for it; and crisp parsley on a side plate, is an admirable accompaniment. From The Cook's Own Book, 1832, page 152.
