FAVORITE RECIPES OF MOVIE PLAYERS

DnHISED GOSN
BY Gretchen Lederer
Who said it is beneath the dignity
of girl with a profession to learn to
cook?
Dear me, if girls really knew just
how well their best beaux like to see
them in a pretty apron, sleeves roll
ed up, and big stirring spoon in hand,
they would change their notions
about cooking.
My favorite recipe is praised duck
cooked in the following way:
Clean and truss, but do not stuff,
young, tender ducks. Lay upon a
bed of fat ham, minced onion, chop
ped celery, and parsley and sliced
carrot and pour a cupful of boiling
water over them.
Cover rooster tight and cook in a
moderate oven for two hours. Strain
the liquor into sauce pan, remove all
fat and let come to boil. Then add
one. teaspoonful of lemon juice,
thicken with Drowned flour, immerse
the fowls in sauce until hot again,
and serve.
