GREAT VALUE OF
sUET IN COOKING
Most Housewives Know That It
Is Excellent Shortening.
IT HAS SOME MEAT TISSUE
Possesses Same Food Value as Lard,
and II Properly Tried Out, IL 10
tIsfactory Substitute for
Frying Purposes.

Special pains should always be
taken to save and use suet because Of
its great value in cookery. Most
housewives know that rendered suet
is a very good shortening and very
commonly they also have special
dishes in which the chopped suet is
used instead of a rendered fat. In
addition to the fat it contains, chopped
suet has some meat tissue. Rendered
suet possesses the same food value as
lard or other similar shortening, and
If properly tried out 1t is satisfactory
substitute for frying purposes, for
shortening, and for making savory
fats. Anyone who regards suet as
useful only in making soap is wrong
for it Is a valuable food. Its use for
soap making should be considered only
when the fat has become too rancid
for use or when it has been burned
when used for frying.
Trying Out suet.
Those who do not know how to rem
der and use suet sometimes object to
1t on the ground of its hardness and
special flavor. Fresh suet, however,
can be so rendered as to make soft
useful fat practically free from any
distinctive flavor or odor. The follow
ing is q simple method for trying out
suet:
Remove the skin and lean parts
from beef fat and cut 1t into small
pieces. Put 1t into saucepan and
cover 1t with cold water. Place it on
the stove uncovered, as it is believed
that steam carries away strong flavors.
When the water Is nearly all evapo-
rated set the kettle back and let the
fat try out. When the fat has ceased
bubbling and the scraps Of skin are
-shriveled, allow the scraps to settle
at the bottom of the kettle, strain the
fat through cloth, and set it away
to-cool.
This fat is SO valuable in cooking
that housewives will do well to save
all suet which Is trimmed from beef
and try it out.
suet and Leaf Lard.
For those who want a mixture Of
suet and leaf lard, which Is softer
fat than rendered suet and has a DIFF
ferent flavor, the following recipe will
be uSe1ul:
Take two parts Of suet and one OF
leaf lard, finely ground, and mix to-
gether. Render this with whole milk
in the proportion of one-half pint to
two pounds of the mixed suet and lard.
Render means to melt down or to
clarity by melting) This may be con-
veniently done IL the suet and lard
mixture be finely divided by passing 1t
through a meat grinder and then
heated in double boiler. when the
fnt will be quickly released from the
tissues, and when strained and al.
lowed to cool will form cake on the
surface Of the liquid which may be
easily removed. +,
This fat has a good odor, color! and
texture, and Is softer than the suet
alone IT is particularly useful for
frying and for shortening fnods which
