Domestic Cook Book: A Companion to Pulte's Domestic Physician; Being a Practical Guide in the Preparation of Food for the Well and the Sic: Cooking in America

Created originally on the suggestion of Dr. Pulte to accompany his Domestic Physician, this 1888 volume of recipes by Mary Pulte is designed to be a practical guide to the preparation of food for both the well and the sick. The volume takes as its premise that many of the ills that affect mankind can be directly linked to the use of poorly cooked and unsuitable foods and thus provides recipes for healthful and delicious foods that will preserve and restore health. It also contains recipes for household remedies and cleaners.
