The Art of Cooking

COOKERY is or should be a fine art. Like other arts, it has its laws of proportion, harmony, and contrast. The art of cookery appeals to the sense of taste, music to the sense of hearing, and the graphic arts to the sense of sight. Gratification of the sense of taste is as legitimate as enjoyment from any of the senses. The temperate indulgence of the sense of taste is indeed necessary for good digestion, on which depend physical well-being and efficiency. A systematic study of cookery, then, should be a fundamental part of the education of the home-maker.—American School of Home Economics.
