SALT PORK FRIED IN BATTER.
Here Is a good suggestion, well worth
more frequent adoption. For saving more
expensive meats and also for variety it
will be welcome at least occasionally.
Make a pour batter with one egg, one
third cup OF milk and -four enough for
griddle cake batter Fry thin and small
slices of fat salt pork until they are
clear and commence TO crisp a little
Then dip them in the batter and fry
until the batter is done. Take up and
serve on a hot plate. These are good
with baked potatoes, or left over vege-
table hash. If too much batter is made
it is nice to fry in little cakes, which
will be relshed by most people.
