In addition to the bargains offered
in the Market Basket, the following
suggestions may be of benefit to Geor.
gian readers:
Don't throw away the handful OF
mashed potatoes, potato cakes, potato
croquettes, etc.
The chicken is cooked; the broth is
left Why throw it away? Save &
for Monday. 1t can be used for chick
en- soup with rice and is delicious. You
had a small amount Of rice left over
from your Sunday dinner. The left
over rice would make a nice pudding
or if you want wheat cakes for break
fast a little cooked rice in the batter
makes them fine
THE small amount of lard that is
left after frying the bacon is enough
to fry potato cakes or could be used
I'm making waGles. 1t also gives a
splendid flavor.
Ways to Save.
you had a large soup bone. Why
not, after the soup is made and the
meat Of the bone is tender. put it in
the oven and brown and serve as a
meat, and not stop at that, but should
any be left a few blocks Of raw po-
tatoes and a little onion mixed with
the cut meat make a delicious break
fast hash, served on toast?
After dinner there was a small
amount of stewed corn left. Corn frit-
tiers is the answer. Make a little bat
ter of flour. salt and baking powder
and bacon grease and add the left
over corn and fry in a pan.
Another way to save is in the gas
bill. In cooking with gas, don't have
too much flame under your pots after
getting the pot to boil. Reduce the
flame and it will continue to boil on
less gas When a roast and vegetables
are being cooked at the same time, get
the vegetables to a boiling point, then
place them in the top oven while the
roast is baking underneath the flame,
and one gas burner will do the work of
the two.
