Excerpt from Principles of Cooking: A d104book in Domestic Science Principles OF cooking is intended as a textbook in cooking and elementary food study for secondary and vocational schools. It is not merely a cook book. So many good cook books are on the market that there would be no justification for adding another to the list.
