CLANS.

CLAIMS usually abundant when the season of
the oyster IS closed, and the Little Neck clam often
takes the place of the Blue Point the opening
course at dinner during the hot months There are
many delicious ways of serving clans that are
fresh from the besides the popular chowder.
One Of the simplest is by roasting them. When 1t Is
possible. get them a day two before they are to
be cooked. and allow peck. to make about a quart
when sheIled To have them plump and tender,
wash them thoroughly in clear water and then
cover them with fresh water. Allow about quart
of water to peck of clans. and add to it cupful
of cornmeaL Let the clans remain overnight.
When you are ready to cook them, rinse thoroughly
and spread, in their shells. in old dripping pan.
Set in very hot oven to roast, and the shells
gradually open remove the clans with sharp
knife and drop them into a deep dish. Serve them
with sauce and thin slices of brown bread daintiy
buttered.
CLANS are excellent In fritters For this purpose
steam the clans until their shells begin to open;
then remove them Allow about twenty-five for i
family breakfast and save cup of the clam juice.
Al1nce the clans finely in & chopping bowl. remove
70 a pastry bowl and sift over them scant cup
fuls of pastry flour. Stir into this the cupful OF
clam juice. the yolks of three eggs and piece of
soda the size Of pea dissolved In teaspoonful Of

three eggs and II the batter is tco thin to fry add

BRAISED EFAT,

means considerably less to the average cook than
1t should. The oldtime braising done ir a
braising kettle with cover which held hot Goals
SO that the meat was cooked both the top and
at the bottom. usually in stock. The was
basted often and quite similar to the New
England potroast To-day nearly all braisng IS
done in the oven, the kettle with that held
Goals having been abandoned. The typical braistng
kettle Of to-day is a shallow copper pot. with a
deep. close fitting cover. with long handle which
is welded Veal is the meat most often braised
though beef is often cooked In this way. and
times mutton. There is generally objection to
bralsing beef. because the majority of people pre-
fer beef cooked rare and the process Of braising
necessitates a thorough cooking. Veal, which
should always be cooked thoroughly, is bettec
braised than any other way. simple dish of
brased veal is made Of the fricandeaU which is
the prime piece of the leg of veal It weighs about
three four pounds in the average leg of veal
and consists of the jUiciest tenderest part of the
meat, though it is inferior in flavor to the ribs of
