Excerpt from The Menu Book: Practical Gastronomy, a Menu Compiler, and Register, of Dishes
The ever-growing necessity for variety in our menus impels us to glean new ideas and fresh help from every possible source.
The object, therefore, of this culinary handbook is in the first place to assist caterers, restaurateurs, managers, maltres d'hôtel, chefs, stewards, head waiters, and housekeepers to plan and compile menus of every kind of meal with greater ease, and to enable them to have at their disposal a large and constant variety of seasonable and suitable dishes.
Every course, from hors-d'œuvre to dessert, has been exhaustively treated; and the work is compiled so as to give at a glance an almost infinite variety of every possible kind of dish that can be introduced into a menu.
In most cases the- requisite mode of cooking, the garniture and style of dressing or dishing up, is briefly described. The book should not, however, be confused with a book of recipes, for its raison d'être is to enable those who can cook or superintend cooking to draft menus with greater ease, and to give each dish its proper French name.
The adoption of French names in menus has become fashionable because most of the typical French dishes have become fully naturalised in the kitchens and on the tables of this country. It therefore becomes the duty of all persons interested in culinary matters to know how to describe them in correct French.
The author can hardly expect that this book will bring about a revolution in the customs of gastronomy, but he does hope that its use will be the means of introducing greater variety into the daily menus, and, if possible, economy in the preparation of dishes. Hence its mission should, if for no other purpose, prove practical and useful to such who avoid ordinary cookery books and fight shy of scientific culinary treatises. If such an aim is achieved the author's efforts will be amply rewarded.
The present, enlarged edition contains a special chapter on the Art of Menu Compilation, as well as over 2,000 additional dishes.
