of England "go a-shroving' on
this day, using the same tricks
and treats technique our children
do on Halloween. Football in it's
early form was a traditional game
played in some sections of the
British Isles on pancake day.
Some villages still pursue this &C
tivity but the old custom of pitting
the married women against the
spinsters seems to have vanished,
Good thing, too, because the game
as they played it sounds like a
rough and rugged pastime. The
goal lines were as, apt as not to
be 3 miles apart with often a
river midway between goals and
the participants would be forced
to scrimmage neck-deep in water.
Although the celebration began
as religious holiday, as the years
passed the religious significance
dimmed and Pancake Day
changed in character to one of
widespread gayety and merry
making. Today church groups
and many civic and social organi-

Tuesday,: Pancake Doy

Down through the ages the Gus
tom has developed of eating pan
cakes on Shrove Tuesday the
last day before the lenten season
of fasting and abstinence begins
for people of many faiths.
Legend has it that the pancake
as a symbol of Shrove Tuesday
had it's origin in the STRIVING
cakes" associated with 18th cen
tury Medieval England. The recipe
for the cakes was provided by the
church and at the tolling of bell
the women rushed to prepare their
pancakes. Then they focked to
their churches to be shriven or
absolved of their sins. Because
fats were banned during the lenten
season, the housewives took ad-
vantage of this opportunity to use
up the accumulation of meat. fats
in the kitchen larder. Basically,
the formula we use today has
changed little from those of medi-
evil times. We still use the four
symbolic ingredients: Flour for
the staff of life, milk for inno-
cence, salt for Wholesomeness and
eggs as desirable lenten food.
Another custom of the day was
a race among the housewives of
the village. The rules required
the ladies to race with frying pans
in hand. Tipping the pancakes

street. The winner got kiss from

Asparagus
Recipes
by the Chef

Try serving your asparagus in
the Flemish manner, with quar-
tered hard cooked eggs. Arrange
| 2 punches of freshly cooked as
paragus on individual hot plates,
with 2 hard cooked egg quarters
on each plate. Pass a nutmeg and
crater to each guest, to sprinkle
the asparagus to his liking. Then
the guests break the eggs in pieces
over the asparagus and over all
is poured a drawn butter sauce,
seasoned with lemon and full of
chopped parsley
Asparagus Pompadour" is an
other winner. Drain your cooked
asparagus and wrap it in a nap
kin to keep it warm. Melt "a
pound of sweet butter over hot
water and add to it a generous
dash of mace, salt to taste and a |
little cayenne. Stir in alter
nately l scant tablespoon of -four
and 3 eggs, which have been beat
en- with l tablespoon of sherry.
Stir over hot-not boiling-water
until the sauce thickens; then
spoon it over the asparagus and
serve at once, with a garnish of |
parsley.
French fried asparagus is a ia
vorlte OF many. Drain the as
paragus-these stalks should have
been cut quite short before cook
ing; use the ends to make cream
OF asparagus soup-and dip thef
tip ends in l egg which has been
diluted with 2 tablespoons of wa
ter. Roll them in lightly salted
and peppered flour and dip again
in the egg mixture. Fry until
golden in hot deep fat, drain on /
absorbent paper and serve at once
Sauce Tartare is good with as,
paragus done this way, although
| it is not essential.

A New Idea

Spiced whipped cream is de-
licious on apple pie, apple betty,
baked custard, and many other
desserts. To make it just add
dash of cinnamon, nutmeg, and
cloves along with the sugar and
vanilla you usually use to flavor
the cream.

never allowed to soak. Soaking
sometimes loosens the handles.
