Excerpt from Date Cook Book
It has been quite fitting that a date cook book should originate in Coachella Valley, the American home of the date.
I feel that the time is not far distant when dates will be used universally both in the fresh state and in various modes of cookery.
In its use sugar is conserved, as will be seen in the following number of recipes which need no sugar, and by others which require a smaller amount than has before been used.
Although the compilation contains many of the so called "fancy dishes," a still larger number of simple and wholesome rules may be found in its pages.
Dates are a product which perhaps lend themselves to a greater variety of uses than any other one article of food, and, consequently, I trust a book devoted exclusively to their service will find favor with all those who desire a more extended acquaintance with this most delicious fruit.
