While gathering and formulating recipes concerning the preparation of fruits for her own private use, the author and compiler of the present book was struck by the fact that there existed no simple yet comprehensive work upon the subject. It is true that cook-books flood the market, but the major portion of them deal with all sorts and conditions of materials. What appeared to be needed, was, first, a greater variety of dishes in which fruit enters as an ingredient and that are at once easily made, appetizing and wholesome; secondly, such an arrangement as shall show at a glance the changes which may be rung upon any one kind of fruit. It is frequently the case that the housekeeper who is blessed with a superabundance of apples, peaches, pears, or dates, finds her household cloying upou the two or three modes in which they are usually served. Recipes for a dozen new dishes to be made out of the same fruit are then an acquisition, the value of which only a housekeeper can justly estimate. In the eight million and more kitchens which are the pivotal centers of the physical life and activity of our country, fruits are daily growing more important as a staple article of food.
