Excerpt from The Home Messenger Book of Tested Receipts

Of the making of books there is no end, and of the making of Cook Books we trust there never will be, as long as each successive volume records an advance in gastronomic art and science. Every American woman of medium ability edits a receipt book. Our library shelves are full of these productions. Miss Leslie, Mrs. Hall, Mrs. Cornelius, Miss Beecher, Marion Harland, and scores of others, have contributed their mite, or might. Monsieur Blot rushed into the arena with the laudable intention of reforming, reconstructing and remodelling American taste. The present volume is an unambitious compilation of receipts gathered from hundreds of private sources, and published during the past five years in the Home Messenger, the organ of the Detroit Home of the Friendless, and the Thompson Home for Old Ladies. They have been tried, tested, criticised and reformed, until in a plain and practical way we consider them faultless.

No cookery book alone will make a good cook. Judgment in baking, boiling, stewing, frying and compounding is only to be attained by experience; but the acquisition of that experience may be greatly expedited by such instructions as are to be found herein. Here are receipts that will enable any lady to get up for her own family, or ce'remonious guests, a delightful breakfast, lunch, dinner, tea, tea-company, or large evening' entertainment. We have endeavored to make them so explicit that a lady can follow them herself, or stand by her cook, and see that she follows them.
