HOW TO FRY LIVER. .t-
The liver from a calf is considered
by epicurcs the finest and best. 1t is
not always to be obtained. Beef liver
is considered the next hest, and is now
kept by all good butchers. 1t sells
generally at about five cents pound,
sometimes as high as eight cents. Eff
teen years ago we could get it for moth
ing; ten years ago We could buy five
pounds for dime. Beef liver is gen.
orally fried in slices about half an inch
thick. A few slices of salt pork fried
with it gives it a delicious flavor. .
When the liver is put into the pan to p
fry without any previous preparation
it is quite inclined to stick, and conse-
quently burn Liver requires good,
steady heat for considerable time In
order to cook it thoroughly, and especl-
ally is this SO where it is put quite fresh
into the pan. Liver is altogether a
breakfast dish, and for this reason it is
often desirable to cook it quickly, and
nine times out of ten it gets burned.
Many soak the liver in-cold water. be-
fore frying. 1t is COED way, but l
think my method is better. take as
many slices as are required for break
fast, lay them in dish, pour boiling
water over them and allow them to re-
main few minutes, but take them out
while the water is still very hot; then l
slip them upon a towel, where they will
quickly dry. Next, / cover the bot
tom of the spider with number OF
slices of salt pork, and, laying liver on
top, set the spider on the stove. When
the pork has fried nearly enough, and b
there is considerable hot liquor in the
pan, put the pork on top of the liver,
and allow the liver to lie flat on the
pan. 1t will very soon be done. Turn
it once or twice In dishing it, put
the liver in the middle, and the pork
as garnish. Some persons
soak liver over night in vinegar: others
add onions, parsley and savory herbs.

the better. - -.
Sometimes calls liver is. ,rettsted
whole, and is considered ssexcellent.
1t should be constantly basted with
butter, or it may be covered with slices
of bacon. 1t is a fayorite plan to lard
the liver before putting it to the fire.
1t is done in the following way: Take
very thin strips of pork, about six
inches in length. Cut places in the
surface of the liver in such. a way as to
allow you to braid stheFstrips of pork
into it and over it,. 1t is, however, a
good deal of trouble and takes consid-
cradle time and as it really is no bet
ter than to cover the liver with pork
and haste with the liquor running from
it, / do not strongly recommend the
plan. The fat should be removed
when the liver is done, and nice gravy
made of the exuded juice. Lemon in
