METHOD OF CLARIFYING FAT
Melt With at Least an Equal Volume
of Water and Heat for
Short Time.

An Old-faShioned method of Clarity
ing fat from the soup kettle or from
cooked meats such as bacon, ham,
chicken, beef, sausage, and other
sources, is recommended by the Uni
ted States Department of Agriculture.
Melt the fat with at least an equal
volume Of water and heat for a short
time at a moderate temperature, stir
ing the mixture occasionally. When
cold, remove the cake Of fat and
scrape off any small particles of meat
and skin that adhere.
Some fats are better favored than
others for use in pastry or CAKE max
ing. but all clearly rendered fats may
be used in frying. If the flavor q
color or both are not satisfactory at
the first rendering. the process may be
repeated several times. Another meth
cd, often recommended, Is to cool a
number Of slices of raw potato In the
boiling fat. The addition Of a small
uncut onion. a few leaves OF summer
savory and thyme, salt and pepper.
when rendering meat drippings, makes
a savory fat useful for gravies. Sau-
sage fat is excellent for frying meats
which have less flavor of their own, as
veal outlet or rabbit.
Fat IN small quantities may be cas-.
lily kept sweet in the ice box for cook
ing purposes. If lard Is rendered at
home in large quantities to last q
long time II should be kept covered
in tins or earthen jars, in a cool, dry
place.
