Summary "The Boston Cooking-School Cook Book" by Fannie Merritt Farmer is a comprehensive cookbook written in the early 20th century. The book serves as a guide to various cooking techniques and food science, reflecting a growing interest in dietary knowledge and culinary education during this period. Farmer aims to elevate scientific cookery, emphasizing its importance for improving health and personal well-being. The opening of the cookbook sets the stage by discussing food's definition and essential role in nourishment and health. It introduces the elemental composition of food, categorizing it into organic and inorganic components. The text emphasizes the necessity of understanding the dietary value of various food groups and the importance of balanced nutrition influenced by individual factors such as age and occupation.
