About this book
Mrs. Wilson's Cook Book, by Mrs. Mary A. Wilson, offers numerous new recipes based on present economic conditions. The preface says the influence of well-cooked, palatable food upon the health and general well-being of the family is as certain as that of changes of temperature. The directions for finger or sandwich rolls say to use the Parker House roll dough, cutting it into pieces one and one-half ounces in weight.
Further recipes include Braids, made from pieces of dough three-quarters of an ounce in weight, Rusk or Tea Biscuits, and Crescents. The text says there are more than thirty-five varieties of potato, and gives the average analysis of the white potato as sixty-two per cent. water, 2 per cent. protein and 1 per cent. fat. The text says that in English communities it is the custom to sit up and watch the departing year out and to welcome in the new, and that the custom of New Year's calling is very old indeed.
