OVEN TEMPERATURE;
SALAD HINT.
(ThankS to Mrs. c. N. M,
Washington
A small portable thermometer to
be placed on the rack in the gas
stove oven will solve your problem,
I believe.
I think these are obtainahle at
a good hardware store and are not
expensive. Or perhaps the gas
company could tell you where to
obtain one.
One of the reasons pastries and
cakes burn so easily in a gas oven
no matter what the temperature
is that the food is not placed at the
right place in the oven.
In the stove I am using here find
that cakes and pastry do better If
placed in the middle of the rack
and just little more than half
way up from the bottom of oven.
If placed lower in the oven the
bottom is inclined to burn while
higher up the bottom is not Drowned
and the top burns. This proper
placing is very important indeed,
and If you have no better success
suggest that you call the gas COM
pany and they will gladly have some
one suggest what to do.
As a rule I think that an in
experienced cook is likely to let the
oven get too hot. For after the
correct temperature is reached the
oven continues to get hotter and
hotter still unless the flame is low
cred after the rising has begun.
Maybe a little experimenting with
your particular oven will teach you
what you want to know so badly.
Each oven in gas stove without a
thermostat is a rule unto itself
more or less-so one has to deal
with temperament as well as with
temperature.
The gas company will be glad to
offer suggestions If you will inquire
/ of them-even In wartime I am
pretty sure they can help you out
tof. your difficulty If the suggestion
offer does not turn the trick for YOU.
Thanks to Mrs. C.. H. f..

In answer to Mrs. r. p, WASH
ington. The gas is not always the
same and I frequently put my hand
in the oven before I start to bake
cakes to see If 1t seems hot enough
or too hot. This is probably a hang
over from the days when had no
heat regulator. But little prac-
tice will make one a Judge Of de-
grees of heat.
Watching the fame which should
be high for the first Is minutes,

Here is my mothers liver casse-
role recipe for the reader who wants
good, easy one-dish meals. Even
people who dislike liver like this:
For about two people, half pound
beef liver Slice, flour and brown in
skillet. Put in casserole, alternat-
ing with about 2 medium potatoes,
sliced (the thin wide slices are best) ,
a or 3 medium carrots, sliced or
cubed, tomatoes, about n of a No.
2 can, and onion, green pepper and
celery as desired. Add water or to-
mato juice to about n the level Of
contents. Salt and pepper to taste.
Bake in moderate oven about 40
minutes.
Another good dish is sliced ham
baked in milk with large slices of
potato wide, and about u Inch
thick this is good using evaporated
milk. Slice ham and potatoes in
casserole. add milk, bake very SLOW
ly about 80 or 40 minutes. If cooked
too long or too hot 1t curdles. Ham
may also be baked with sweet pota-
toes and water and sugar, using
about / tablespoon sugar white or
brown to 2 medium potatoes and !
or 2 pieces Of ham.
All of the above may be expanded
easily according to the number Of
people to be fed.
Another gosd one-dish is egg
plant Puerto Rican style. Peel and
cube eggplant. Place in skillet with
chopped bacon, let both melt" over
slow flame until eggplant is becom-
ing transparent (add no moisture) i.
Then add green pepper, onion, to-
matoes and juice, seasonings, let
simmer for about u hour until 1t
tastes done. Celery and potatoes
and so forth can be added II de-
sired.
Am sorry these are not more ex-
act, but I learned them "by ear"
and the cooking times vary with the
amounts.
Another dish of this type is Gre
ole kidney" Cube kidneys beef,
lamb; it is not necessary to scald
them, ETC., although some prefer to
do this). roll in flour and brown.
Then roll in flour again and brown
(this step can be omitted). Add po-
tatoes, carrots. green pepper, toma-
toes, etc, and water wine or TO-
mato juice. Simmer about "A hour.
A real favorite is Irish stew Tor
soup. to make which one boils a
soup bone (even pork can be used
but beef is best) an hour, then adds
carrots, potatoes and other hard
vegetables and then when nearly
done, tomatoes. But most people
know how to make soup, imagine.
It took me . long time to find out
that thorough boiling of the bone
was essential to flavor.
I enjoy your column very much.
Am strictly an amateur and hur-
ried cook, so like dishes which do
not require one to be watching too
many kettles at once. The house.
hold hints are very valuable, and
the chatty nature Of the letters is
refreshing.
