and corn beef. This fat is clarified
and then used for sauteing. It can
not be used with good results for

IR BILLS?-WHAT TO DO WITH FATS-A SPK
MRS. WILSON EXPLAINS METHODS
OF FRYING FOODS: HOW TO SERV We
The Difference Bueen Seig and Dcpat Frying and the Disadvantages

Them-Cooking With egetabLe Oils

trying to do deep frying with these
fats. They not only will not hold
the temperature for successful fry
ing without scorching, but they fire.
quently soak into the food and make
it unfit to eat.
This present war has brought
many good vegetable oils upon the
market that are ideal for cooking
purposes and are preferable TO the
animal fats for all cooking. They
not only hold high temperature
without burning, but also they may
be used repeatedly if they are
strained each time after using. Food
cooked in vegetable oil does not alb
Sorb the fat and it is more digestible
and really more economical.
Frying
There arc two methods of frying:
First. Sauteing-cooking food in
the pan with just sufficient fat to
prevent scorching. This method
is commonly used, but has nothing
to really recommend it, as the food
absorbs quantities of grease; this
makes it difficult to digest.
Second Dcep-fat frying--it is
usual to dip the food TO be fried in
Il. mixture to coat it and then to
roll it in fine bread crumbs and then
cook in sufficient fat TO cover. This
forms an alright cover that pre-
vents the grease from soaking
through. \ few essential utensils
arc necessary to produce successful
results; first, a heavy kettle that
will not tilt, and second, frying
basket, 80 that the food may be re-
moved quickly when cooked.
The correct temperature for deep
fat frying j.. $50 degrees Fahrcn-
het, for raw foods, such as crullers
fish, frittcrs, potatoes, etc. For
cooked dishes and oysters, cheese
balls, ETC., $40 degrees Fahrenheit

quantities at one time. This will
cause Il sudden drop in the temper.
/ aturc Of the fat, allowing it to per.
mcatc the food, which is cooking
and thus give greasy product.
Now for Il word of protection
Do not use too large a kettle. kccr
Il bucket of sand handy in the
kitchen, and if for any reason the
fat catches fire, throw sand on it;
do not attempt to remove it from
