TWO WAYS OF COOKING COD
SOUNDS

Before boiling, the cod sounds should
be soaked in warm water for half an
hour and then scraped and cleaned. Boil
them in half pint of milk and water TIL
tender. When done serve them on a nap
kin with egg sauce. The salt must not
be soaked out of the sounds except for
fricassee. About half an hour is required
for boiling. Broiled cod sounds are liked
by many. They should be left in hot
water for few minutes, rubbed with a
little salt, cleaned till they look white.
and then given gentle boil. Take them
out. dry and -four them, sprinkle them
with salt and pepper, and broG1. They
should be served with melted butter and
mustard or whatever sauce may be pre-
ferred. MRS. Won L.

The making of good brown gravy Is
sometimes very difficult, even to pro-
fessional cook. The conditions that make
1t easy are sometimes absent. Ordinarily
speaking. the juices left in the pan in
which q joint is roasted should form the
basis of a good gravy.
After the roast has been removed you
should skim off as thoroughly as possible
all the grease, as. II left there 1t would
spoil the best efforts Of anyone. II this
Swimming has left but little juice in the
pan, a common way of making a gravy
is to set the dish on the top OF the range
and dust into the little liquid little
-four. stirring constantly as 1t browns.
until you have a smooth paste. Then
add by degrees a sufficient amount of
good stock to give the quantity and con-
sistency required.
If there Is a reasonable amount of
juices, you may first add more stock or
even hot water. II the product of the pan
is very rich, and then stir In a table
spoonful of flour or corn starch wet In
cold water.
If the -four is well mixed with the
water and the product is not lumpy.
there is no reason why there should be
Jumps In the gravy.
The color OF the gravy depends upon
several things. II a roast of pork is
cooked dry. flour being sprinkied over
the bottom of the pan, the -four will
brown at the outset and will color the
Juices sufficiently to give you good
brown gravy.
In roasting veal, haste frequently. u.s.
ing at first a half cupful of warm water
In which piece of butter the size of an
English walnut has been melted. Then
this with the juices from the meat
should be used for basting. Sufficient of
this will burn on the pan TO brown the
liquid. which you VIII thicken to the
consistency desired.
You will find beef and lamb as a rule
fat enough to cook themselves so far as
the basting is concerned.
If your gravy is not brown enough to
suit when made as above, you may color
1t in this way In large iron spoon put
a small piece of butter. fiji up with sugar
and place the spoon on tho GOALS. The
heat will melt and color the mixture a
very dark color and this hastily made
caramel will color the gravy as dark as
you could WISHED.
