Salvaging Kitchen
Fat Is Big War
Contribution

When homemakers save fat and
drippings they save points and
money and increase supplies of fat
for wartime needs.
Fat may. be salvaged from the
drippings of bacon, patties, roasts,
steaks, and chops. Fat may be rem
dered from both cooked and I'M
cooked meat trimmings. Meat trim
mings should be chopped or ground
and then rendered by heating slow
ly until the fat is melted. The
melted fat is poured off as it ac-
cumulates, strained, and stored in
a covered container in the refreg-
orator. All fat that is. not used
should be sold to the meat retailer.
Even the "cracklings' (crisp
brown pieces that remain after the
rendered fat has been strained)
have use in cookery They may
be used to extend the meat in
loaves and patties or to add a pleas
ing flavor to corn bread.
