PREFACE
This book has been written in response to the many requests for
practical help in the planning of menus and for the recipes in use in
the cafeteria under the management of the authors.
This book is designed primarily to assist the managers of food
departments in institutions. However, it is hoped that the chapters on
menu planning, the recipes, and the list of weights and their
approximate measures may prove useful as a text for those teachers of
institution management who have the problem of teaching large quantity
cookery and menu planning.

QUANTITY COOKERY
CHAPTER I
PRINCIPLES UNDERLYING THE PLANNING OF MENUS FOR LARGE NUMBERS
Well-balanced and appropriate menus are absolutely necessary to the
success of any establishment serving food. Given the best of raw
materials and the most competent cooks, the institutional manager will
fail to please his patrons if his menus show lack of careful planning.
The truth of this assertion is verified by the analysis of many
failures.
On the other hand successful menu planning is not especially difficult.
Like any other art it requires careful study and observance of a few
simple rules.
Of course, it is impossible to formulate one set of rules that will
apply to all situations. Each manager must make his own rules based on
the conditions he has to meet. There are, however, certain basic
principles to be recognized and followed. If the ensuing chapters
succeed in explaining these principles and in emphasizing their
importance, the authors' purpose will have been served.
In planning menus for an institution the manager must:
Keep in mind the nature of the institution; its purpose; the character
of its patronage.
Follow certain dietetic principles.
Maintain constant variety in the food.
Keep menus appropriate to the temperature; the weather; the season;
occasional holidays.
Recognize the limitations imposed by equipment; amount and kind of help;
range of cost permitted; left-over foods to be used; form of service.
The first point to consider in planning a menu is the type of
institution to be served. For reasons that are obvious, the purpose of
the high school cafeteria is very different from that of the
metropolitan hotel, while neither of these has the same object as the
municipal tuberculosis sanitarium.
The age, sex, nationality, economic condition and occupation of the
patrons must be kept in mind. The adult demands a freedom of choice
which may be denied children. For this reason the content of the grade
school lunch may be fixed in an arbitrary way, while this will not do
when one is dealing with adults of any class. For instance, grade school
children are satisfied with the morning bowl of bread and milk and the
noon lunch of bread and soup. Adults, even in a charitable home, would
undoubtedly complain of the simplicity of such meals. The high school
lunchroom may eliminate coffee from its menu and have frequent "pieless"
days. Any such attempts to regulate the diet of adults, except for
patriotic reasons such as were the incentive to denial during the war,
are highly inadvisable.
As far as the food elements are concerned, the same kinds of food may be
served to boys and girls or to men and women. But, practically, they
will not eat the same foods with equal satisfaction, and this should
influence the planning of menus in different institutions.
School lunch managers and social service workers have found that in
order to accomplish their aims they have to recognize racial food
tastes.
The economic condition of the group to be served may limit variety in
the menu, on the one hand, or may permit of maximum variety on the
other. The eight-page menu of the fashionable tea room as definitely
reflects the ability of the patrons to pay as does the simple meal of
three or four dishes served the immigrants at Ellis Island.
The occupation of the patrons, whether active or sedentary, determines
to a large extent the kind of food served to them, from the dietetic
standpoint and from the commercial standpoint as well. The lumberjacks
of the north woods require a diet very different in quality and quantity
from that of the telephone operators in a city exchange.
In institutions serving set menus, with little or no choice, special
attention should be given to dietetic principles. Examples of such
institutions are college dining halls or dormitories, hospitals,
benevolent "homes," boarding houses, fraternities and clubs.
For those who have had little or no training in dietetics and who yet
have the responsibility of planning menus, it may be said that if ample
variety is provided, with emphasis on fruits and vegetables, the
dietetic requirements will probably be met.
The sequence of foods in the menu is important. Where several courses
are to be served, and it is the aim of those planning the menu to keep
the appetite stimulated, acids, meat extractives and warm foods should
be served first. Cloying foods such as sweets, very cold foods and foods
which are satisfying tend to depress the appetite and hence have no
place in the first course of a meal, except for luncheon where the menu
may be very simple. In institutions which have fixed menus, it is
especially desirable that the meal, no matter how simple, be so planned
that it may be served in courses. Children especially are likely to
hurry through their meals, and the serving of food in courses prevents
too rapid eating. It is true, of course, that extra service requires
more labor, and so may not prove possible, even though desirable.
The responsibility for maintaining a constant variety in food calls for
the continued exercise of initiative, the determination to avoid
monotonous repetition, a mind open to new foods and new methods of
preparation and systematic marketing trips in order to keep in touch
with seasonal changes. Perhaps the most frequent criticism of
institutions is on the lack of variety in meals. Hotels, clubs and tea
rooms can draw trade by serving out-of-season foods when they first
appear in the market. Institutions whose purchases are limited by a
budget should make the most of seasonal foods when the market is at its
height and the food is cheapest. Such institutions should avoid serving
foods that are not actually in season. Serving berries or melons before
the height of the season dulls the appetite of the patron for these
foods so that by the time they have become economical to serve he has
tired of them.
Variety should be introduced not only in the kinds of food but in the
preparation, garnish and service. Even in charitable homes and other
institutions where the aim is to serve at a minimum cost, the menus can
be made attractive through variety in preparation. Corn meal and cottage
cheese, two of the least expensive foods we have, can be utilized in a
wide variety of ways. There should be no hesitation about serving new
dishes, for maximum variety is essential to a happy patronage whether in
the tea room or the benevolent institution. The point to be kept in
mind, where the guest has the privilege of selection, is that all the
variety should not come within the day or meal but within the week or
month. Surprise always helps to induce appetite and this fact is as
applicable to the menu in the children's home as to that of the tea
room.
It is good business practice as well as good dietetic practice to plan
meals according to the weather and the time of year. Hot, heavy foods
sell best in cold weather. Cool, crisp, fresh foods sell best on the
hottest days. The public is very susceptible to weather conditions.
Holidays give a popularity to certain foods which they enjoy at no other
time of the year. It is good business to make the most of these foods by
serving them on appropriate days.
There are definite relations between the menu and the equipment
available for its execution. For instance, a menu which calls for oven
cooking to the exclusion of the use of the top of the stove or
supplementary steamers will be impossible to carry out. The menu should
be planned in order that the cooking may be divided between all the
available equipment, such as ovens, steamers and top space on stoves. In
the kitchen, as in the industrial plant, it is good management to give
space only to efficient equipment and to use that equipment to its
maximum capacity.
Again, incomplete equipment may have to be considered in planning the
menu. If there is no power machinery the amount of hand work or heavy
physical preparation called for may have to be cut down in accordance
with the equipment at hand. In serving large numbers power machinery
will often pay for itself in a few months through the saving in labor.
It will not only do the work better and more humanely but will allow a
much greater variety of food. In the matter of equipment the institution
must get away from the idea that it is a large home, with working
conditions as they have been in the average home. It should consider
itself an industrial plant where one of the aims is maximum production
with minimum labor; and it should realize that proper equipment and
proper working conditions are necessary in the accomplishment of this
aim. Even though the labor supply may be adequate, efficient planning of
menus demands that there be an adjustment between those foods requiring
much labor and those requiring little, so that proper balance may be
maintained.
In discussing the limitations in menu making the element of cost has
come up again and again. It becomes a definite restriction in
institutions that work on a budget, or where the group to be served
demands good wholesome food at the lowest price. As examples of such
institutions there are the factory cafeteria, the school lunch and the
college cafeteria.
Though menus must be made out in advance of the day when they are to be
used, they should be sufficiently elastic to allow for proper
utilization of left-overs. Using left-overs may mean very little change
and substitution, or may require complete revision of the day's meals.
Left-overs must be used, for it is only by constant care that the food
cost can be kept down to a minimum. That this is true of all
institutions, whether great or small, is shown by the extreme care
exercised in the largest hotels to the end that no food shall be wasted.
Where there is family service, rather than plate service from the
kitchen, there will probably be a large amount of left-over food. It
requires a good deal of ingenuity to use these left-overs in some other
form so as to maintain variety and that element of surprise which is so
essential. In the cafeteria or other institution using _à la carte_
service the left-over problem is not so serious. It is very nicely taken
care of in tea rooms and hotels which serve a club luncheon, the menu
for which may be chiefly made up from the left-overs.
It is obvious that the form of service may influence the kind and extent
of the menu. That is, the cafeteria can serve a large variety of dishes
because the patrons wait on themselves. A similar choice or variety is
impracticable where there is table service, except in hotels,
restaurants and tea rooms where cost is not so great a factor.
CHAPTER II
STANDARDS FOR JUDGING MEALS
Provided the principles of good nutrition have not been violated, the
main basis for judging any meal is palatability. Palatability depends
upon appearance and quality. Appearance in turn depends upon quantity,
color, form and service upon the plate. Quality is determined by odor,
flavor, temperature, texture and consistency. Reduced to outline form,
the elements of palatability are:
| quantity
| color
+ appearance---------+ form
| | neatness
| | arrangement
|
Palatability +
|
| | odor
| | temperature
+ quality------------+ flavor
| texture
| consistency
Commercially and aesthetically it is unwise to make servings too large.
Every one has had the experience of being served with more food than can
be eaten with relish and without waste. The effect is to surfeit the
appetite and to limit the variety which a patron may have, unless he is
able financially to order the variety; in which case he is obliged to
leave some food uneaten. In any institution which serves _à la carte_,
it is better to adjust portions and prices to the end that the patron
may have some variety in his meal without prohibitive expense.
Color is important in inducing appetite. The cafeteria counter
displaying a buff-colored pie, snow pudding, rice custard and yellow
cake does not tempt patrons to buy. A basket of fruit, a bright-colored
gelatin dessert or attractive garnishes may transform a drab meal into a
most interesting one. Particularly in all kinds of plate service,
attention must be paid to color, for while clashing color combinations
must be avoided, some color must be used to give the food an appetizing
appearance. A great deal of our food is very neutral in color and admits
of a liberal use of garnishes of one kind or another.
As a rule articles of food served together should be of diverse shapes.
One may enjoy a croquette, a stuffed baked potato, peas in timbales and
a roll in the same meal, but it is usually unwise to serve them on the
same plate.
The necessity for neatness and orderly arrangement of servings is
obvious. At large parties where there is plate service it is wise to
make up a sample plate before the time of serving in order to determine
the best arrangement of food and in order actually to show those who are
to dish up the food how each plate must look when it is placed before
the guest. One who is inexperienced in planning menus, especially for
parties, should accustom himself to visualizing the meal as it will
appear when written upon the menu card and as it will appear upon the
plate. A menu which has seemed very good when planned will often be
unsatisfactory when actually served because some of the above points
have been overlooked.
Odor and temperature are important factors in quality. It would seem
superfluous to say that hot things must be served hot and cold things
must be served cold, yet in serving large numbers the strict observance
of these rules is one of the difficult problems to be solved. _It can be
solved, however_, with efficient equipment properly arranged, a
carefully thought out organization of service and unceasing care.
Repetition of texture and consistency should also be avoided. That is to
say, there should be the maximum variety in preparation of food in order
that no meal shall contain two or more creamed dishes, fried foods,
foods with custard basis or foods with bread foundation.
If a score card were made out for judging a meal, flavor would perhaps
be given the most importance. Here again care must be taken to avoid
duplicating flavors. Too many strong flavors or too many bland flavors
are undesirable. While strong flavors stimulate the appetite it is
unwise to employ them continually, especially where the same group of
people is being served day after day. A more blandly flavored diet is
likely to be less palling and more constantly inviting.
In serving the public, whether it be in the hospital, the college
dormitory or the commercial restaurant, the aim should always be to have
the food better than that to which the patrons are accustomed.
In almost any kind of food work, and especially in institutional food
work, visiting trips to the best hotels, tea rooms, inns, cafeterias and
restaurants are invaluable, since they impart a knowledge of the way
things are done, which in turn creates a confidence and assurance that
nothing else can give.
CHAPTER III
TYPES OF MENUS
CAFETERIA MENUS
Though it may be necessary to offer slightly more choice in foods in the
commercial cafeteria, some cafeterias offer such a wide variety of
choice that the patron is confused and has difficulty in choosing his
meal. Furthermore too much variety makes for sameness from day to day.
In all cafeterias where the same group is served each day, and where
there is little or no competition, a simpler menu may be used. The
following menu outline is suggested for use in the average cafeteria.
A Standard Form for Cafeteria Menu
1 soup
2 meats
(1 meat substitute)
1 kind of potatoes
2-3 vegetables
1-2 hot breads
1-2 sandwiches
2-3 salads
2-3 relishes
6-8 desserts
4 beverages
_Meats_
One inexpensive meat should be served in each meal.
Two made-over meats should not be served in the same meal.
Two kinds of beef or pork or two kinds of any other variety of meat
should not be served in the same meal.
_Potatoes_
Creamed potatoes may be served with meat lacking gravy or sauce.
It is seldom advisable to serve mashed potatoes unless there is a
meat gravy to offer with them.
_Vegetables_
When possible one vegetable should be starchy and one should be
succulent.
Two creamed or two fried or two buttered vegetables should not be
served in the same meal.
_Breads_
Raised breads and quick breads give a good variety.
_Salads_
There should be at least one inexpensive salad.
The variety in salads may consist of one fruit salad, one vegetable
salad and one salad in which protein predominates, such as cottage
cheese, meat or fish.
Head lettuce salad is universally popular and may appear at every
meal.
In salad dressings, there should always be a cooked dressing,
French dressing and mayonnaise. Other varieties may be added as
desired.
_Desserts_
Variety in desserts includes:
Fruit in some form.
A pudding with a dough or bread foundation.
Two cold puddings.
One kind of ice cream.
One kind of cake.
One kind of pie.
One-crust and two-crust pies should so far as possible be
alternated in successive menus.
Two or more kinds of pie may be demanded, but when possible patrons
should be educated to other choices in desserts.
_Beverages_
Milk should be served in bottles (with provision for opening).
Thirty Days' Menus for a Cafeteria
The careful manager spends a great deal of time in menu planning. If
some systematic method of menu making can be adopted and used with a
mind constantly alert to seasonal changes in foods, new and attractive
dishes and variety in serving, the plan may result in saving much of
this time.
A set of menus for thirty days has been worked out, with the idea that
they may be repeated at the end of that time without too monotonous
repetition. No Sunday meals are included since the majority of
cafeterias are closed on that day. The Friday menus occur on the fifth
day and every sixth day thereafter. No menu is shown for Saturday night
when, if a meal is served, it may consist of popular dishes such as
chicken in some form, waffles or steaks, along with such left-overs as
it may be desirable to use.
The menus are intended to serve as a _foundation_ to which may be added
new dishes and seasonable fruits and vegetables, a suggestive list of
which is given elsewhere (see pages 57-59). From these foundation menus
may be eliminated such dishes as are unpopular or out of season, or
which for any reason it is impractical to serve. Commercial cafeterias
may find it necessary to add other choices to these menus. Very small
cafeterias may offer fewer choices. The majority of establishments,
however, will find this variety ample, the idea being to serve the
maximum variety within the week rather than within the day or meal.
A star has been used to indicate those dishes in which left-overs may be
used to particular advantage.

TEA-ROOM MENUS
The tea-room menu is characterized by daintiness and excellence in food,
garnish and service. Large tea rooms serve a variety such as is found in
large hotels, with practically no changes in their menus from day to
day. They are open to the same criticism as are the cafeterias that
serve everything in the market at every meal, and so make their menu
monotonous. Smaller tea rooms offer limited choices,--soups, relishes,
hot dishes, vegetables, salads, breads and beverages. To add choices to
a menu beyond the number which will satisfy the patrons is not economy.
The longer the menu list, the more labor, equipment, food wastage and
spoilage. Therefore the tea-room menu list should be as simple as is
consistent with the demands of those to be served. The menus shown below
are of the type which are changed from day to day. The first is a very
good example of this type, embodying a moderate degree of choice. It is
suitable for a tea room serving perhaps six hundred or more people
daily.

POPULAR FOOD COMBINATIONS
Since it is customary to plan the menu, using the meat as a basis, and
since custom and good usage make certain combinations popular, a list of
such combinations is given below with the idea that others may be added
as desired.

GARNISHES
Clever use of garnishes will do a great deal to make servings
attractive, to develop surprise and stimulate appetite.
A list of garnishes appropriate to different kinds of food appears
below. Of course there are many others, and the number of different ways
in which ordinary garnishes can be used effectively is surprisingly
large. The alert manager will observe what others in his field are
doing, and will discover many ingenious ideas by reading food journals
and women's magazines.
The garnishes used for soups are practically the same whether for cream
or clear soups.
Wafers, cheese and plain
Croutons
Olives
Radishes
Celery hearts
Whipped cream (on cream soups)
Some meat garnishes can be used at all times; others are especially
adapted to certain kinds of meat.
In general
Parsley
Watercress, in season
Mixed pickles
For steaks
Lemons cut in fancy shapes
Sautéd mushrooms
Potato roses
Stuffed tomatoes
Stuffed peppers
Grilled and buttered Brussels sprouts
For fish
Lemons, in slices and cut in fancy shapes
Cucumber baskets, filled with dressing
Parsley
Watercress
Clam shells, stuffed with clams and mushrooms
Mushrooms, sautéd
Potatoes, cut in fancy shapes, such as shoe strings
or lattice, and fried in deep fat
There are certain garnishes which it is customary to use with salads,
especially with chicken salad.
For chicken salad
Hard-cooked eggs, sliced or cut in eighths
Lemons, sliced
Pickles
Paprika
Parsley
Capers
Olives
Head lettuce cups
For fish salad
Pickles
Olives
Lemons, cut in fancy shapes
Cucumber baskets holding extra salad dressing
Paprika
Parsley
For fruit salad
Tiny cheese balls
Cheese balls rolled in chopped nuts
Tiny sandwiches
Olives
green
ripe
stuffed
Cheese straws in fancy shapes
Very often where sandwiches are ordered they will serve as the main dish
of the luncheon meal. They should be made as appetizing as possible by
the use of suitable garnishes.
Pickles
Olives
Cheese balls
Parsley
Watercress
Attractive paper or plain linen doilies
Nut meats
Desserts by their very nature, require some garnish to make them the
perfect and satisfying last course which they should be. Candied fruit,
marshmallows, slices of fresh orange or strawberries in season, whipped
cream and bright candies add the needed bit of color. Here the use of
paper doilies, glasses and attractively shaped china dishes is a great
factor in appearance.
CHAPTER V
FORMS
THE IMPORTANCE AND USE OF FORMS
Printed forms or other practical aids which may help to reduce menu
planning to a systematic routine are invaluable. Forms such as the party
engagement blanks, shown elsewhere, and the meat order blank and menu
blanks below tend to a desirable standardization. Since meat orders for
the week are usually made out first and the menus planned around the
meats, a form similar to the one shown below, with adaptations for the
particular institution, may be helpful.
The lists of foods and the list of seasonal changes and garnishes
contained in this book will save mental effort and tedium in planning by
suggesting new combinations and variety.
Probably no single device will serve different kinds of institutions,
but the principle of using appropriate printed forms to help in
remembering details holds good for all institutions.

AN OUTLINE FORM FOR SPECIAL DINNERS
The efficiency of an organization is judged by the degree of routine
which each phase of the work assumes. In most institutions the serving
of special dinners is quite apart from the ordinary routine of business.
If this service is to be handled simply and efficiently, all of its
various steps must be listed and taken up in an orderly fashion with the
end in view of perfecting an emergency organization as efficient as that
which regulates the daily tasks.
First of all, arrangements made with those who are giving the dinner
should be definite and complete. In order to prevent misunderstandings,
a printed blank such as that shown below (with any adaptations found
necessary) will prove helpful. This may be made out in duplicate, one
copy being retained by the manager and one by those engaging the
services.
Reduced to their simplest form, the steps to be followed in organizing
this work are outlined below.

CHAPTER VI
RECIPES
In the pages that follow are some two hundred recipes for use in
institutions. It will be noted that throughout these recipes, measures
are used rather than weights. This for two main reasons. First, cooks,
except for highly trained professionals, use measures more easily and
with greater success than weights. Second, most institutions cannot
afford an adequate number of accurate scales; and scales that are not
accurate are worse than useless. Measures, on the other hand, are
inexpensive and always available. It may be said that because of the
amounts and the size of the measures used in large quantity cookery
there is not the degree of inaccuracy which is found in measuring small
quantities.
It is hoped the form of the recipes with the spaces for figuring costs
and calories will be of value from the commercial and classroom
standpoint.
Stars indicate those recipes in which left-overs may be used to
particular advantage.

Cut the meat in cubes and soak two thirds of it in the cold water for
about three fourths of an hour. Sear the remainder and add to the meat
which is soaking. Heat the meat, veal bone and water to boiling and let
simmer for four or five hours. Add the seasonings and the vegetables and
cook until the vegetables are soft. Pour the whole through a colander
and cool. When the fat has set, remove and clear by mixing the cold
stock with the shells and slightly beaten whites of eggs. Bring the
mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Let simmer 15 to 20 minutes.
Strain through two or three thicknesses of cheese cloth.

To make the noodles, beat the eggs lightly and add the flour and salt.
This makes a very stiff mixture. Put the mixture on a board and roll as
thin as possible. Sprinkle the dough with flour and roll it into a tight
roll. From this, slice the noodles. Shake out and let dry. Heat the
stock to boiling, add the seasonings and the noodles and cook until
done. Noodles may be made up and kept for some time in the refrigerator.
