and the lettuce will be crisp and fresh
ened by the process. Lightly scrub the
radishes- tiny red ones, wrap up with
the lettuce. Butter half dozen of any
selected kind of unsweetened crackers
or waters, sprinkle them with cheese
Ca hard green variety which must be
grated,) add dash Of paprika and put
them aside on flat pan. Cut three
lambs hearts in half Inch slices, wash
thoroughly to remove all blood clots,
dry on a cloth and put aside.
Two hours and a half before dinner
put three tablespoonful of butter in a
stewing kettle and when sizzling add
the sliced hearts. Turn often until
they are well Drowned and lift out as
colored. To the butter remaining in
the kettle Ca little more or some drip
ping may be added If needed, add two
tablespoonfuls of -four and stir until
well Drowned. Gradually add one pint
Of hot water or stock, stirring until
smoothly thickened. Return the meat
to the gravy with the slices of lemon,
one half of a small bay leaf, one table,
spoonful of mushroom catsup, one half
teaspoonful of worcestershire and salt
and pepper to taste. Cover and simmer
gently until the meal Is ready; then
serve on a deep platter garnishing with
pin olas and slices of lemon.
TO the spinach add a high seasoning
of salt and pepper, few drops of onion
juice and the stiffly whipped whites of
two eggs. Heap this in two individual
baking dishes or ramekin cases and
bake in a quick oven from twelve to
fifteen minutes, until well pulled and
slightly Drowned.
In small but deep saucepan put
I sufficient clarified dripping to more
than cover the potato croquettes then
draw over the fire until it is so hot
that a thin blue smoke rises from the
centre as well as round the sides, Hav-
ing ready at one side a flat pan spread
with thin unglazed paper (smooth
grocery paper is just the thing) put
| two or three croquettes at a time in
to the fat, being sure that they are
completely submerged A small frying
basket is extremely handy; if one is
used dip it first into the fat before
placing in it the croquettes that the
| wires may be CREASED and so not liable
| to break the coating on each croquette.
| AS the centres are already cooked that
are only left in long enough to brown
them nicely. Lift and turn out care
| fully on the papered pan; let them
drain for a moment then set in the
open oven or at the side of the fire
where they will keep hot while the re-
naming ones are being cooked.
For the dessert sift together one cup
full of -four, a pinch Of salt a teaspoon
full Of baking powder. Beat one egg,
! add to it two tablespoonfuls Of milk
| and stir into the dry mixture, adding
more milk, if necessary, to make a
| thick drop batter; lastly beat in one
| tablespoonful of melted butter. Have
ready two we'll buttered cups and one
| quarter of a pint of hulled straw
berries. Drop a few berries in each
cup, add a spoonful of batter and 50
alternate until the cups are two thirds
/ full. Steam for half an hour place in
I the oven for five minutes to dry off.
\ Mash the remainder Of the berries and
| press through sieve, make very sweet
| with powdered sugar and use as a
sauce for the buildings.
| Arrange the lettuce on two plates,
over it place the radishes quartered
When at the table dress with a French
dressing. The waters should be placed
in the oven just long enough to slightly
melt the cheese.
In making the coffee powder 1t as
finely as possible. Allow one table
spoonful to each cup and use a drip pot,
making it clear and strong. The soup
needs only to be reheated.
