Description
Made-Over Dishes is a cookbook by Mrs. S. T. Rorer, in a revised edition. Rorer also wrote the Philadelphia Cook Book and other kitchen manuals. Her preface calls wise economy the first of domestic duties. Poverty, she insists, need not spoil good cooking.
Chapters work through stock, cooked fish, beef, and mutton. Chicken, game, bread, eggs, and potatoes each get their turn. Sauces, salads, cereals, vegetables, and fruits close the list. Leftover scraps become flavorings instead of garbage. Rorer teaches the housekeeper to waste nothing and serve well. The book is a classic of thrifty American home cooking.
