Gravy Facts.

fcopyrieht. 1916. by the Mcclure News
paper Syndicate.)
II you can make good gravy you have
climbed at least one rung on the LADDER
of cookery efficiency.
There is another little gravy truism,
and that is that the housewife who
does not make gravy to serve with
meats is not economical, for she does
not make use of the richly favored ex-
tractive juices from the meat. AL
though modern dieticians tell us that
these extractive juices do not necessar-
lily contain much nourishment, they
surely are we'll worth conserving as
they add Immensely to the flavor Of the
dish with which they are served. and
they give a good foundation for a
thickened flour addition that Is itself
highly nourishing.
In making roasts Of all sorts by be-
ginning with a few tablespoonful of
water in the bottom Of the roasting
pan, and adding to this from time to
time as the water absorbs, there will
be considerable juice in the pan at the
time the meat is taken up. Besides
this juice there will be considerable
crust, and this is full Of flavor. Place
the meat on a crockery dish and put it
in a cool oven and after pouring off the
surface grease from the dripping pan
put it on the stove over a low flame
with the addition of cupful of water.
Stir vigorously mixing the water with
the crust in the bottom of the pan. In
the meantime have ready flour and
water mixture free from humps, made
in the proportion Of a tablespoonful of
-four to a half a cupful Of water. Now
still stirring the gravy mixture. add a
little at a time the flour and water
mixture. and continue mixing till 1t
has thickened. Should it be necessary
to wait airy time before serving the
meat pour the gravy into a double
boiler and let it remain over water
till time to serve.
For stews and all sorts of pot-cooked
meats the juice in which the meat has
been boiled should be boiled down to
about pint for a family Of six. The
grease should be removed and the re-
naming Juice thickened as in the case
of the roasted meat.
1t is always a good Idea to rid the
gravy juice of as much of the grease
as is possible and in order to do this
effectively it is sometimes practical to
cool the juice slightly and then insert
in it piece Of ice to which the grease
will cling. Dip the ice into the juice
several times and eventually the grease
will have disappeared
Sometimes it is good idea not to re-
duce the amount Of liquid in the stew
pan after cooking stew or ragout.
Although cooking 1t down makes It
stronger In favor. quantity is some
times an object much to be desired. If
the meat is to be served over the next
day as croquettes or minced on toast
this additional gravy will be very use
full and sometimes a dish Of gravy
served with bread and vegetables
makes very acceptable luncheon
without any meat.
