A PAPER BAG DINNER.
BY M. Soyer, Chef of Brooks Club,
ondon

BY M. soyer, Chef of Brooks Club,
London.
Roast Beef, Round, Ribs, or Sir
loin.-Grease well with drippings, but
do not season. Put in bag, lay on a
wire broiler, and cook in a moderate
oven. For a three-pound joint allow
forty-fve minutes; for seven-pound,
one hour and twenty minutes.
Lima Beans.-Take a quart of Lima
beans, add two ounces of butter, four
ounces of diced ham, a little sugar
and salt, a good teaspoonful of -four,
and a few sweet herbs to taste. Put
in a paper bag with half pint of
water, seal up, and cook for an hour
in a moderate oven.
Baked Potatoes-Th0rough wash
twelve good-sized potatoes. Make a
few small Sits in them, but do not
peel. Place in a paper bag, with one
tablespoonful of water. Seal and cook
thirty-fve to fifty minutes, according
to size.
Tcmatoes.-Place six tomatoes in
boiling water for twenty-five seconds.
Peel, butter your paper bag, put in
tomatoes with salt, pepper, suspi-
cion OF sugar, and a small piece OF
butter. Put the bag on the broiler
after sealing, and cook for twelve
minutes in a hot oven.
Apples a la Duchesse.-Wash and
dry ten large apples. Core them, put
stick-cinnamon-only a bit-in the
place Of each core, and pour over
them a tablespoonful of rum. Put in
buttered bag, and bake on the
! broiler thirty minutes. When quite
done, dish up, remove the cinnamon
and fill the centers with jan-straW
4 berry, raspberry, or apricot. Cover
with stifly whipped cream, sprinkle
with chopped nuts, and serve, or SCI
on ice till wanted. Use sweet apples
and let them cool before adding the
jam and cream.
Light the gas range eight minute.
before beginning to cooks or open the
draughts so the coal range will bt
hot. Put the roast on first, upon the
i lowest shelf. Put the apples upoI
the upper shelf, so as to leave room
for the tomatoes beside them. A.
soon as the tomatoes are done, re
move, set the bag in a plate, anC
stand where it will keep hot. Pu
the Lima beans in the vacant place
and when the apples are done, re
move them and put on the potatoes
Thus, you will be able to have tn,
cooking cor1e out even, also to chill
and 81 scr your apples before sittinI

MY EXPERIMENTS WITH PAPER
BAG COOKERY.
Ry Martin McCuIIoch Williams.

BY Martha McCuIloch Williams.
When Soyer's paper bag method Of
cooking was first brought to my at
tention by friends, who, rightly or
wrongly, seem to have a high opinion
of my abilities as a cook, I admit
that was skeptical Of it's practical
bility. Indeed, was more than that
was rather firm in my belief that it
could not prove out But I was in
duced to put the system to trial
and, 10 and behold!-the very first
trial made me an enthusiastic follow
er of M. Soyer. Since then I have
been doing all my cooking by the
SOyer method, and each succeeding
day more than ever convinces me
that any woman, Simply by following
Soyer's general directions, and using
that good common sense and care
which are essential to all good cook
ing, can master the Soyer paper bag
method Of cooking in a very short
time, and will find it great boon
both to herself and to all the mem
bers of her household.
Following M. Soyer's general direc.
lions for paper bag cookery, I speed
lily learned that there are sundry COM
mandments to be observed while pur-
suing his method of cooking.
The first and greatest of these is
to get the right bag, which is made
specially for cooking, is parafned,
odorless even when crumbly-crisp
sanitary and to be had in sizes big
enough to hold a Thanksgiving tur-
key, or tiny enough for a single chop.
Next, nearly as important, is to
grease the bag inside literally, using
butter, lard, oil, drippings or very
fat rind of bacon.
Further, proportion your bag-size
to what it is destined to hold. The
closer the fit of bag and contents,
the better, and the more even and
compact the lay of the food, the less
trouble in handling.
Use a footed wire broiler, or very
open grid-shelf, in the oven. All pa
per bag cooking is done in the oven.
II a gas oven, it must be lighted eight
to ten minutes before putting in the
food and kept at blazing heat until
the bag corners scorch lightly; then
slacken the heat a third or even half
throughout the rest Of the time of
cooking.
Be sure to lay the bags in the oven
with the seam uppermost. especially
if water has been put inside. Seams
will steam open now and then-if the
opening is downward there will be a
leakage and much bother.
Finally, it is important to remem-
Der that all manipulation, seasoning
and favoring Of food must be at
tended to before it is put in bags.
There can be no stirring or tossing
in the course of paper bag cooking.
Nor must a bag be opened at any
time during cooking; such action is
absolutely unnecessary if directions
are faithfully followed.

PAPER BAG
COOKING
Great System Perfected by M.
Soyer, Famous London Chef.
MEANS ECONOMY IN FOOD.
81 Martin MccuIIoch Williams.

BY Martha McCulIoch Williams.
Economy, which is now the cry in
all things, from postage to politics,
has no more valiant helper than M.
Soyer's system of paper bag cooking.
Roasts which have a knack of
shrinking horribly in the pan come
out Of paper bags almost the size
which they came from the butcher,
and possessed of their full food value.
They will have been cooked in vapors
of their own essence-the best part
Of them will not nave run out, to dry
on the pan bottom, and smell most
appetizingly, but be in large measure
lost to the palate. There will be
fit for a king.
In case of fish, the results are even
better. Pan-cooking wastes a fifth,
a fourth, sometimes even a third of
fish.
Vegetables also taste better, and
are better, for bag cooking. Bag
cooking preserves in them their es-
sential salts, which boiling takes
away.
Because all manner of seasoning is
thus conserved and driven into the
food care must be taken to use sea-
soning lightly.
Here is way of using up cold din
ner meat that hearty children will
relish, and even the man of the house
not disdain. Cut the meat in slices,
neither too thick nor too thin, and as
broad as possible, butter them, sprin-
kle them well with sailed flour, and
a very little pepper. Lay in a we'll
creased bag, side by side. then place
upon each a tomato, peeled, followed
out, busted inside with sugar, salt
and pepper, then stuffed. Boiled rice
is a good stufing, SO is cooked maca-
rOni or spaghetti cut small. Bread
crumbs fried brown are likewise
tasty. Season the stuf1ng we'll and
mix through it all the snippets and
trimmings of the meat. Use either
butter, bacon, or cold boiled pork,
well minced, to enrich the stufing.
Scatter between che tomatoes the
scoopings from their insides. Place
in bag, seal it, and cook in hot
oven about twelve minutes.
Quick Potatoes.-Take large white
potatoe for each person to be fed.
Peel, slice thin, drop in cold water
for five minutes, then drain, sprinkle
with salt and pepper, and pack COM
pactly in a well-greased bag, adding
a tablespoonful of stock or milk and
water, for each two potatoes. Seal,
and cook twenty minutes. Boiled 20
tatoes can be used, and take only
half as long.
Baked Appes.-Wash well, but do
not peel, cut out specks and bruises,
core, fill the bottom of the core-space
with lump of butter, over which
pile sugar, and add bit of cinnamon.
A Glove stuck in the side may take
the place of the cinnamon. Seal in
side a well creased bag, and bake
eighteen to twenty minutes in fairly
hot oven. Serve with sugar and cream
or hard sauce.

BroiIed Chicken.-Split the chicken
down the middle Of the back, spread
fat, and put a skewer in each side to
prevent it from curling. Beat up a
very fresh egg, with a pinch of salt,
black pepper to taste, an ounce of
melted butter, a teaspoonful of
Worcestershire sauce or something
similar, and teaspoonful of made
mustard. Mix we'll With a brush
glaze the chicken with the mixture
Place in a creased bag with bread
crumbs around and over it. Be care
full that the skewers do not tear the
bag. Seal up tight and cook thirty
( five to forty minutes in a very hot
oven.
/ Mushrooms.-Pea and wash the
mushrooms, brush them lightly over
with melted butter, dust with salt
/ and pepper, and prt into a buttered
! bag with lump Of butter, a tile
water, and a spoonful of lemon juice
or port or sherry wine. Seal tight
and cook in a hot oven twelve to
twenty minutes.
Asparagus.-Trim and scrape as
for boiling, wash very clean. Tie in
bundles and put into a buttered bag,
with a little salt and half gill of
water. Seal and cook thirty-fve to
forty minutes in a hot oven.
Pudding a la Mayence.-Rub half a
pint of oreadcrumbs through a fine
