New Kensington, Pennsylvania: The Aluminum Cooking Utensil Company, c. late 1940's. Staplebound. Silver foil and color illustrated wraps. Good. 35 pages. 23 x 15 cm. The Aluminum Cooking Utensil Company used the growing interest in science and technology after W.W.I.I. to help reinvent the role of the Homemaker following the need for women to help out in factories during the war. Here they state: It is the smart thing now to "be domestic." Women are turning to home tasks in sheer relief from the boredom that has followed an excess of "outside interests." - Today, with modern "Wear-Ever" conserving equipment, home canning can be done simply and easily. Pamphlet contains help with the selection of equipment, methods of canning and processing, and recipes. Covers lightly creased, interior clean.

"I'm sure your busy schedules don't allow as much time as you'd like for preparing all the delicious meals you and your family deserve. So, I've prepared a cookbook that will help you plan main dishes and desserts that will be ready when you need them. With each recipe I've included information on length of preparation, how far in advance it can be made and how much last-minute reheating of final cooking is required. Many of the recipes also have freezer storage information and some include microwave heating directions. With this in mind, you can plan ahead and cook when you have the time.

To begin with, though making use of leftover food is almost as old as time - the first caveman soon learned to save yesterday's bone stew as sauce for tomorrow's rabbit - it can also be a method of cocking that is as new as tomorrow's computer and just as efficient. ... The recipes you will find here are all ones I have used many times. Some of them will undoubtedly be familiar to you, others both unusual and new. My versions do not take much effort, and I think they have a versatility you will enjoy. They can often be adapted to whatever ingredients are available at the moment, and I am sure you will do just this; however, the novice cook will find them precise and accurate.
