Excerpt from The Chicago Record Cook Book
While a too slavish adherence in detail is not advised, it is hoped that the suggestions for a judicious rotation in diet may be a help to the experienced housewife as well as to the novice, and that she will find her formulae are not necessarily the best way of preparing the various dishes, but only one of a number of excellent ways, whose judicious alternation is best, both for the pleasure and the profit of the eating.

Excerpt from The Chicago Record Cook Book
This is a Cook Book by the people and for the people. The unpublished cooking lore of all sections of our vast country has been drawn upon liberally. By its use families of moderate means can get out of the ruts that lead to dyspepsia through the dead level of monotony. The gastronomic surprise that became so necessary to one of Balzac's characters can be obtained without the aid of a French chef.
These menus were written by a large number of women scattered from ocean to ocean, and from the great lakes to the Gulf of Mexico. The larger part of them have been published in The Chicago Record, and although each was prepared without reference to any other, it is hoped that the daily succession of dishes will be found satisfactory, both from an economic and a gastronomic point of view. An harmonious whole has been produced by inserting the necessary number of reserved manuscripts, and varying somewhat the order of original publication, so that in many cases the remnants from one days meals supply dishes for the next; the roast, when sufficient is left for the following day, will be found to harmonize, cold, with the rest of the bill of fare, and may be substituted for the fresh meat given.
The aim has been to furnish a great variety of pleasing and nutritious meals, daintily served, that may be used by families whose style of living does not exceed an annual expenditure in provisions of a hundred dollars for each person, where the family numbers four or five or more members. The three Holiday menus - New Year's Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas - are an exception in the matter of expense. The dinners on these occasions are arranged for ten persons, and a cost of five dollars was permitted. All other meals and recipes allow for a family of five. The estimates of cost have been based on the actual state of the Chicago market. In future years the seasonable time for various articles may vary somewhat, or the prices may be higher.
