You can tell what kind Of

by how loudly they play the

II they play it softly they are

If they let it go full blast

Cottage
Pork Roll
Bx PRUDENCE PENNY

FOR SMALL families who like
the flavor of smoked pork, but
cannot often make use Of a
whole or half ham, a cottage
roll is a convenient buy. This
cut is made from the smoked
shoulder butt of pork. 1t is a
boneless roll, usually weighing
from 3 TO 5 pounds and needing
only 4 points per pound
A cottage roll may be cooked
in a number of ways. The whole
roll may be baked or Simmered.
You may also cut slices from the
roll for broiling or frying. 1t is
easy TO slice in attractive serv-
ings, either before or after
cooking.
Serve with scalloped potatoes,
spinach, hot cornbread and
honey, apple cobbler with cream
and coffee. Other possibilities
would include Succotash, baked
corn pudding, b k e d winter
squash, sweet potatoes and
caulifiower are just a few of the
many vegetable dishes that go
especially well with smoked pork.
