forty minutes. Stacking heat almost
half after the first five minutes. Make
a peep-hole in the upper side of the
bag near the middle, and if the bacon
and chicken are not as brown as you
like, cook five to ten minutes longer
Serve on hot dish with gravy from
the bag.
Good pies demand good crust
shorter than any temper, easier brok-
en- than promises. Make it by NJ
Soyer's recipe, then surely it will be
up to grade. Here is the recipe:
Take one pound of flour, three-quar-
ters of pound Of butter. Mix the
flour with water and sat lightly until
the consistency of butter. Leave this
dough for half an hour, then flatten
with your hand and lay your butter
on the top of the paste. Then fold
fOur-corner way, and give it two rolls,
as usual. Leave your paste in a cool
place for forty-fve minutes, and then
roll twice more. Leave it for forty
five minutes and then roll twice again.
Bake all your pies in bags; it may
seem eXtravagant, but the gas-saving
more than pays for the bags. Use
thin pie tins. Roll out and fill as
usual. Set pans inside bags and set
the bags on trivets. Cook two pies
at once, but shift them midway the
cooking, from upper to lower shelf,
and vice versa. Thus they will brown
top and bottom. Grease the bags
but lightly underneath; even though
they crisp there it does no harm.
The essential thing is to keep the
upper surface covered and maintain
steady heat. Have the oven hot at
first, but slack heat after little-as
soon as the bag corners show rather
brown. Average pies, with average
heat, require twenty-five to thirty
minutes. Make peep-holes on top in
the bags when you think they are
done; if not brown enough, raise the
heat a wee bit and cook five minutes
longer.
To make the cider-cup, cut thinly
the yellow peel from six oranges and
six lemons, squeeze out the juice and
put In with the peel and three cups
Of sugar Make a gallon Of sweet
cider very hot, but do not let it boil,
pour it upon the peels and juice, and
let stand in a cold place for twenty
four hours, stirring it several times.
The peel can be strained out, but 1t
looks rather pretty in glasses.
For tea lemonade, take the juice
of a dozen well-washed lemons and
three sweet oranges, cut the squeezed
fruit in rings, and add it to the juice.
Put in five cups Of sugar and strain
over the whole gallon and a quarter
of weak tea, boiling hot, then add a
cupful Of rum. This also is better
for standing-1t keeps several days
in cool place. The rum can be
omitted if there are scruples regard
ing it. In that case the strained
juice Of pineapple that has been
shredded and allowed to stand TWEEN
ty-four hours in sugar can take It's
place. Dilute this one-fourth with
mineral water in the glasses.
