"Foods and Household Management: A Textbook of the Household Arts" by Helen Kinne et al. is an educational manual on household management and cooking techniques written in the early 20th century. This comprehensive textbook focuses on the various aspects of food, including its production, preparation, and hygiene, while also addressing the management of household resources such as budgeting and purchasing. It serves as a resource for students in household arts courses, as well as for homemakers seeking to enhance their cooking skills and household efficiency. The opening of the textbook sets the stage by discussing the complexities modern housekeepers face in managing food supplies compared to previous generations. It introduces the concept of "food problems," emphasizing the need for knowledge about food selection, preparation, sanitation, and economic considerations, driven by changing societal conditions and a diverse food market. The early chapters emphasize the importance of understanding food materials and their nutritional value, offering insight into the considerations that must be taken when planning meals and managing household resources effectively.
