cook-general

There was a ring at the bell, and the "cook-general" entered with a card held between a floury thumb and a buttery forefinger.

I spoke so well that a cook-general offered herself to me as soon as the conference was over.

I shall bribe, plead, consent to any arrangement if I can but net a cook-general.

And the household generally was in the hands of a trustworthy cook-general, who maintained a tolerable routine.

And, by the way, I'm greatly in need of a cook-general, if you happen to see one.
