"This is a cookbook designed to help you in the hundreds of everyday and special situations that call for the planning, preparing, and serving of food. It describes those situations as well as the food, so that you are offered specific suggestions for what and how to serve when somebody's going to be late for dinner, or an unexpected guest turns up, or you're the committee chairman for the annual church supper, or hostess at an outdoor barbecue. It's designed so you can read along in the "story" while keeping an eye on the menus and recipes each situation suggests. Or you can study the recipes, and find nearby a description of the time and place they can be most useful to you. The new kind of cookbook was created by the women of General Foods Kitchens. The seal on this page and on the cover is a symbol of the work General Foods does in test kitchens and the giant processing kitchens of 52 plants here and abroad, in preparing foods and beverages for your home kitchen. Whenever and wherever you see this seal, you know it stands for the approval of the women of General Foods Kitchens. In our eight major test kitchens, we develop and test recipes and menus, experiment with new foods not yet on the market, and constantly seek out ways to make meal planning and serving more trouble-free, imaginative, and fun. Our book shares with you some of the discoveries we've made over the years that we think will be helpful to you."--
