EGG YOLK.
PORK CHOPS.

I prepare my babies egg yolk the
following way: I save the glass jars
the strained food comes in, fill one
half full Of warm tap water, then
separate the egg (put the whites in
a tightly covered jar and keep in
refrigerator), put egg yolk in the
jar of water and set in a pan of
water, turn flame on medium and
when the yolk is done drain OF the
water in the jar This jar can be
thrown out afterward, saving you a
messy dish to wash.
A favorite method of ours to pre-
pare pork chops: Use lean and
about a Inch thick pork chops.
Flour. salt and pepper, and brown
each one on both sides in sufficient
fat. Lay aside on paper, then make
a thin gravy of flour and water, put
pork chops in it, cover closely Il use
my chicken fryer for these) and
use low flame, or low unit for elec-
trio stoves, and let simmer for two
hours. You can use your favorite
herb navoring in the gravy; I light
ly saute sliced onions and leave in
the gravy to simmer with the chops.
The chops are so well done and
tender prepared this way.
May I recommend Mrs. ROM
bauer's The Joy of Cooking? 1t
contains such a variety of recipes
and cooking information.

CHICKEN-FRIED SHRIMP.
(From Mrs.>L. X. G.. Washington.
see in your column Mrs, G. w.
of Washington would like a recipe
for chicken fried shrimp. I have
been successful with it. I usually
remove the shell. then beat an egg
and add about 4 cup of milk with
the egg. Then I dip the shrimp in
bread crumbs Cor cracker meaD
then dip them in the egg with the
milk and back in the bread crumbs
again. Then fry in a French fryer
or chicken fryer in deep hot shorten
ing about 2 or 3 minutes, or until
they are a little brown. I find that
by dipping in the bread crumbs be-
fore and after the egg, it holds
together better. and just for a little
tip I usually prepare oysters for fry
ing the same way. I'm sure if Mrs.
G. W. tries this recipe she will like
them very much.
