Especially Adapted to the New Caloric Fireless Cookstove, GRAND RAPIDS, MICH. CALORIC FIRELESS COOKSTOVE COMPANY PRICE 1.00 of All Copyright, 1906 ... more »By Caloric Fireless Cookstove Co.. Copyright, 1908 By Caloric Fireless Cookstove Co.. All rights reserved. PREFACE. THE recipes, explanations and directions, together with other useful hints and suggestions pertaining to the cul- inary art, contained in this volume were written and prepared primarily for the benefit of users of the Caloric Fireless Cook- er. It should, perhaps, be explained here that the word fireless is a misnomer. The proper word is recalorator, which literally means the conserving of heat, just as refrigerator means the conserving of cold. In both instances, the initial calor heat and frigidity cold must be provided. In the hay-box, the predecessor of the Caloric cooker, the initial heat was supplied by the large body of water or liquid in which the food to be cooked was placed and brought to the boiling point, the insulation of the hay keeping the surrounding atmosphere from equalizing and thus dissipating this heat, just as the charcoal and air chamber insulation of the refrigerator keeps the surrounding warmer temperature from rapidly melting the ice, and thus lowering the temperature of the food chambers. For boiling, steaming to a certain extent and stewing, the boiling liquid or water was adequate to complete the cooking. But, of course, the tem- perature could not be raised above 212 degrees Fahrenheit. Inasmuch as there are certain foods which cannot be cooked properly by boiling or stewing, in a liquid, the primitive hay box and its commercial successor, the original Caloric Fire- less Cookstove, was not a real cookstove it could neither bake nor roast. To supply this deficiency comes the New Caloric, which, with its genuine steatite radiators, furnishes sufficient stored heat to raise the temperature in the Caloric insulated oven and insulated compartments to over 400 de- grees Fahrenheit. Inasmuch as the baking heat is only between 325 and 350 degrees, it will be readily appreciated that the New Caloric really does BAKE and ROAST, as well as boil, steam and stew literally cooking anything required for the table. That this method of cooking is superior in results, from every standpoint, we need not explain it is too well understood. The first requisite is to acquaint ones self thoroughly with the New Caloric. Therefore we request all housewives to study carefully the directions for use. While the time and the ingredients required for cooking are stated, nevertheless a little experience will determine that these can be regulated according to the tastes of the individ- ual. It will take a little time for the thoughtful housewife to master all the advantages of the Caloric. There are countless arrangements and advantages which time and use will reveal, not mentioned in the directions and cookbook. Pains have been taken to make the book international and, in so far as possible, to please the varied tastes. It should be understood at the beginning, however, that any recipe can be cooked in the New Caloric. For this reason, the more common recipes, such as bread and pies, are not included, else there would be no end to the list. After some practice according to the instructions of this book any woman in any land or country will be able to prepare whatsoever she has been accustomed to or might desire. It has been the purpose of this book to embody principally the method of preparing food...
