How to Make a Roast


Place the empty pan over low
fire flame (gas, oil, etc, if desired
plate can be placed beneath) for
about half a minute SO that the
sides of the roaster become we'll
heated; then take the roast and
scar it, turning it over two or
three times in order that the meat
may retain its juices; then cover
with the other pan, have low
flame and season when it is about
half through. AS aluminium is
an excellent conductor of heat,
roast made. in this manner cuts
down the fuel used fully one-third,
and reduces to minimum the in
tense heat of the oven, in summer.
If in an oven use similar to above
directions.

.The japanese Red Cross, through

pathy and generous offer of the Amer
