Helpful Cooking Hints for HouseHusbands of Uppity Women:
A Cookbook
Archie P. McDonald
This is a cookbook for all husbands enlisted to cooking
duty, and it assumes no prior cooking knowledge beyond
knowing how to measure and how to turn on the stove. As
Archie P. McDonald irreverently observes, "Uppity Women"
are entering the workforce and not necessarily cooking
all the meals anymore, so his aim is to "help you learn
to feed your kids, yourself, and even your Uppity Woman
if you feel charitable."
McDonald first provides a glossary of cooking terms for
the neophyte kitchen inductee (chopping, for example, is
"rendering a defenseless pepper or not-so-defenseless
onion into a lot of little slivers or chunks"). He then
discusses how to equip the kitchen with proper cooking
implements and ingredients (a meat mallet is used to "beat
the tar out of round steak"). This is followed by more than
one hundred easy-to-follow recipes for beef, chicken, pork,
and seafood main courses; vegetables; salads; breads; and
desserts.
"There are lots of one-dish, church-supper-style casseroles,
chilis and stews, gathered from sympathetic friends and
colleagues who didn't want to see the McDonalds starve."—San
Antonio Express-News
