"Cookery for Little Girls" by Olive Hyde Foster is a practical cookery guide aimed at young girls, likely written in the early 20th century. This book serves as a manual for mothers wishing to teach their daughters the essential skills of cooking, emphasizing the importance of supervision and instruction in the kitchen. The primary focus is on nurturing both practical cooking skills and encouraging young girls to appreciate the art of homemaking. The opening portion of the book sets the stage for these lessons, outlining the importance of early instruction in cooking and the practicalities involved, such as maintaining cleanliness and following instructions carefully. It begins with a preface from the author, discussing the rationale behind writing the book and offering insights into its intended use. It includes introductory chapters that cover foundational topics like cooking breakfast items, essential kitchen equipment for little cooks, and basic recipes, such as baking-powder biscuits, baked apples, and corn bread. Through these early lessons, the book aims to instill in young girls the confidence and competence required to contribute effectively in the kitchen. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
