Boiled Leg of Lamb

A boiled leg of lamb makes a
nice change from the usual roast
This is a favorite in England
where mutton is used, and is al
ways served with Caper sauce
The liquid that remains after the
meat is boiled makes a delicious
mutton broth.
Get a leg of lamb weighing
about pounds, and have the
shank bone cut short, and the
large bone at the other end re-
moved. Put the bones in a pan
with enough water to cover, add
ing p teaspoon salt for each quart
of water. Bring to boil and add
the meat, 8 carrots, cut up, 8
white turnips, ditto, some parsley
celery, and bay leaf. Boil gently,
allowing Is minutes per pound of
meat. Cook potatoes separately
in salted boiling water.
Remove the lamb from the
water. and serve on a platter sur
rounded by potatoes and the other
vegetables. Caper sauce may be
served separately.

Violet Faulkner is on Udcd-

The produce from your sum-
mer gardens such as corn, string
beans, limas and peas should be
canned in a steam pressure can
ner. Here are words of advice
from homecoming specialists on
the care of your canner.
Like the good workman who
respects his tools, the careful
home Gamer puts a little extra
time and elbow grease into keep
ing steam pressure Gamer in
prime condition.
A steam pressure Gamer is an
investment that deserves the kind
of care that will make it last, say
household equipment specialists
in the United States Department
of Agriculture's Bureau of Human
Nutrition and Home Economics.
Proper canner care also promotes
safety. And it pays in a third
respect, by turning out more
satisfactory home canned food.
AS reminders, these equipment
specialists cite the following tech
niques of good pressure Gamer
care:
A dial type guage, new or old,
should be checked for accuracy
at least once year, and also dur
ing the season if the Gamer is
used a great deal. About check
ing dial gauge, ask the county
home demonstration agent, or the
dealer, or the Gamer manufac-
turer.
Wash Gamer thoroughly before
using it and before storing it.
1t must be absolutely clean if you
are to get efficient and economic
operation. Dried food, dirt and
hard-Water scale on the edges of
either kettle or cover will cause
steam leaks and resulting loss of
efficiency. Scrub the edges of
both kettle and cover, using whit
ing and water if securing is
needed. Don't use strong soaps
on aluminium or heavy duty
securing powder on any type of
Gamer.
When washing, never immerse
the lid in water.

Grilled Honnburgers
With Onion Rinqs

That great institution, the ham
burger. has more variations than
can be counted on an abacus.
With the price of meat what it
is, even the hamburger has be-
come a luxury, and it should,
therefore, be treated with all due
respect and ceremony.
Take, for example, these grilled
Ihamburgers with onion rings. A
dish fit for the gods-and en-
inently suited to the masculine
palate.
First, cut thick slices of sweet
Spanish onion-each slice should
be a good 12-inch in thickness.
Don't separate the rings. Secure
them with toothpicks pushed in
at the sides.
Put the slices in creased
baking pan, and pour over them
three tablespoons of melted bacon
drippings. Season well with salt
and black pepper. Cover the pan,
and bake the onions in a mod
crate oven for about 25 minutes,
until tender.
In another pan heat two table
spoons of butter, and stir in two
tablespoons of grated onion. lit
tie minced parsley, and three
quarters of a cup of bread crumbs.
Season to taste with salt, pepper
and a little mustard and work
into one and one-third pounds of
lean, ground raw beef. Mix well.
Beat one egg and combine it
with the chopped meat mixture.

each cake with a slice of bacon

TheChef 7
Says

When was young, and just be-
coming interested in the Sme.
chanics of the culinary world, the
kitchen bible was 1.-The Boston
Cooking School Cook Book" edited
by famed Fanny Farmer. 1t was
then, and still is, one of the finest
volumes on cooking that has ever
been compiled. But in 1881 new
book appeared on the horizon
and won place in the heart of
every one interested in food and
how to prepare it. I have said
often that with Fanny Farmers
opus and this later volume on
ones kitchen shelf one would be
equipped to keep house and man
age meals, menus and recipes for
every situation that might arise,
And this opinion holds, with the
latest revised edition of both the
Boston book and 1.-The Joy of
Cooking" awaiting perusal on my
desk. The first Joy of Cooking
by Irma S. Rombauer caused a
sensation. not only for it's wealth
of recipes, but by the revolution
ary manner in which they were
presented. Now in the new edi-
Ition, by Mrs. Rombauer and
Marion Rombauer Becker, pub
lished by the Bobbs- Merrill Com
pany. Inc, $3.50, we find any
minor faults corrected, and much
Iof value added. For instance, in
the first edition one found it a
bit confusing to have no section
heading appear on the pages; this
is now clearly presented. 1t is a
bigger book, nowhere are over
1000 recipes included. There is a
whole new section on frozen foods
preparation. packing, freezing
and cooking; there are many re-
cipes for pressure cookery, a num-
ber excellent. Another new sec
ton concerns foods and bever-
ages prepared with an electric
blender--so rapidly becoming a
standard part of our kitchen
equipment. There is practical
discussion of high altitude cook
cry, especially valuable in these
days when fast travel and global
work takes so many young house
keepers to foreign climes at high
levels. A modernized cake sec
ition contains a number of recipes
for the new one bowl cake pre-
Icedure.
A section on nutrition is up-to-
the minute scientifically, and
should be a big help to the novice
lin feeding the household properly.

free. If the rubber in a remov-
able gasket shrinks, stretch it
carefully between the fingers until
it fits the rim. Some types of
rubber gaskets may be turned
upside down when they no longer
give a perfect seal in the original
position. II the gasket in use
won't make perfect seal, get a
new one.
/ Make sure that openings to the
petcock, safety valve and pressure
gauge or weight control are clean
If openings are clogged during
canning. all air may not be driven
out in the time allowed for vent
ing, or the safety valve may fail
to work when pressure becomes
too high. The openings may be
cleaned by drawing a string, mar
row strip of cloth, or pipe cleaner
Through them.
| Petcock and valve should be re-
moved occasionally and soaked in
vinegar for a short time. If the
safety valve is ball-and-sc Iet
type, clean it after each use. Oc-
caSionally clean the ball and the
socket into which it fits with sill
yer polish.
After the canning season is
over, be sure the came is clean
before storing it. Wash the kettle
in hot sudsy water and wipe off
the lid with a soapy cloth, then
with a clean, damp cloth. Dry
thoroughly.
Smear the threads of screw locks
or thumb nuts with a thin film
of any salt-free oil to prevent rust
Place crumpled newspapers inside
the kettle to absorb moisture;i

can get into the kettle and keep
