THREE RECIPES FOR scALLoPs
stewed, Fried, or Made Into Salad
They Are All Good.

Stewed scallops are very nice and you
can use the small ones for that pur.
pose. Heat one quart Of milk In
double boiler, put one-half cup Of hot
water into granite pan, add one
quart Of scallops. bring to a good
sharp boil, and cook for three minutes.
Add them to the hot milk. Season with
pepper salt and II liked a bit Of
mace. Soften up one-fourth pound OF
butter and when the stew has come
to a scald. put in the butter, but do
not allow 1t to boil. Serve with oyster
crackers crisped up In the oven and
red cabbage slaw.
Scallop Salad--Boil one quart oil
scallops in sailed water, drain and
cool. Cut up in small pieces, arrange
on lettuce leaves, pouring over any
dressing you may prefer. l use my
regular mayonnaise Of oil and eggs
and made in the regular way. You can,
however, use boiled dressing II you
choose. It's quite as good as many
salads that are more fancy.
Fried scallops are as a rule liked
as well as any form Of cooking them.
Wash and dry on clean towel. Dir
in beaten egg and seasoned cracker
dust or fine crumbs. Place in frying
basket and plunge in boiling deep fat
They ought to cook in four minutes
They can also be fried in pork fat
Garnish with lemon points and pars
ley. Tartar sauce Is also served by
many with fried scallops. Scallops
can be baked with bread or cracker
crumbs, similar to oysters. Any rule
you use for escalloped oysters is safe
to use, only season little higher.

voices without producing the most

the commands of officers to their men
