SWeetbreuds Finunciere
New Orleans DeIicucy

Sweetbreads have always been
considered q delicacy-but now
adays when all meats are so high,
they do not seem as out of line as
they would have some years ago.
Creole cooks especially make the
most of them, and prepare them In
o number of exquisitely tasty ways.
First, the sweetbreads- which
are bought by the pair - are
blanched. Have the butcher clean
and trim them nicely. Soak them
for a couple of hours in iced water,
changing the water several times.
Add a pinch of salt to each water.
Then drain the sWeetbreads. and
put them in cold water in sauce
pan, on the fire; add u teaspoon
of salt, and let them blanch until
they come to a boil. Drain. and
set them again in iced water.
Evening star., 1951-04-05

Drain once more, press into shape,
and they are now ready to be used
in any dish you desire.
One of the best known in New
Orleans is Sweetbreads q la Finan-
ciere. Blanch and drain the sweet
breads as above-we will suppose
you are preparing 3 pairs. Lard
these with a larding needle and
match-like strips of salt pork
Lard each sweetbread 8 times.
In, a shallow saucepan put "
pound of sweet butter. When it
melts. lay in the sweetbreads, one
by one. Season lightly with salt
and pepper, add 3 carrots, sliced
fine, a couple of sprigS Of thyme
and / onion minced fine. Butter a
piece of brown paper and cover
the saucepan: then set it in the
oven and let it cook slowly until
the sweetbreads are a golden color.
Uncover and turn them from time
to time. so that they will brown
evenly.
Now add a pint of beef broth,
consomme or bouillon and let all
simmer for y hour.
Prepare Sauce Financiere thus:
Take 2 tablespoons of butter,
melt, and remove from the fire.
Blend in gradually a tablespoon of
flour, and moisten with " pint of
rich chicken stock. Set on the fire.
Add some truffes, sliced. about IS
olives, stoned, 2 blanched chicken
livers, cut in pieces, and IL mush-
rooms, chopped. Season with salt
and pepper, plus a dash of Tabas-
co. Let the sauce cook for 20 min
uteS, until it is the consistency of
rich cream. Put the sweetbreads
on a hot dish, pour the sauce over,
and garnish with croutons fried
in butter. Serve very hot, with
steamed rice.

lcreamy oyster stew. fried oysters
or on the half shell. now is the
time to order them. oysters can
be had during the warm months
but oystermen will be giving their
time and attention to farming
their oysters rather than selling
them. It takes four to five years
to grow an oyster for market
and lot of work has to be done
during those four-R-less months.

that supplies Of the new crop

we're invited to q book tea or
Sunday to sample ESQ the invita-
ton read) dishes from THE Wen.
nese Cookbook" prepared by the
author, Miss Irma Rhode, anc
published by A. A. Wyn. Inc
| ($3.00).
Irma Rhode is a scholar OF the
old school of Viennese cooking
The Vienna that was a paradise
for epicures. Her early training
in the culinary arts was in Baden
Baden at the cooking school of the
Grand Duchess of Baden. Later
she attended the University OF
Kiel. She came to the United
States in 1928 and established q
business of her own In New York
city; currently she is manager OF
the employees cafeteria at Lit
Brothers in Philadelphia.
Her book includes recipes fol
the wonderful crusty breads, the
streusels and gugelhupf for which
the old Vienna was so famous
There are recipes too for, the de-
| licious fancy cakes known as tor
ten, as well as for sweet aspics
punches, noodles, and hearty
soups.
On Sunday we started off with
a strawberry bowie made Of dry
white wine, champagne. and
Strawberries, and served with hot
piroshki. Following this we had
green bean salad. celeriac salad
goose in aspic, a potato herring
celery salad, cucumbers in wine
vinegar, Spanische wind-torte init
obersschaum (meringue torte)
and coffee. It seemed rather un-
fortunate that several of the
dishes served were not included
in the recipes in the book. The
goose in aspic was q variation on
the recipe for pork chops in aspic
the green bean recipe had been
deleted from the book. and the
potato salad was not listed.
Maybe my taste buds were
super-critical after the divine food
they savored at the luncheon fol
Nine. Auriol at the French En-
bassy a few days previously, but
somehow these dishes didn't quite
come up to my expectations OF
Viennese food. The rumor was
floating around that the majority
of the food had been prepared in
the Lit kitchens in Philadelphia
and flown to Washington. which
may explain some Of the lack
of flavor.
Washington. being essentially a
Government city, is noticeably
lacking in industrial plants. But
we can boast of one -. milling
company in old Georgetown that
has been supplying Washing
tonians with fine -four for nearly
half a century. Recently this
company revised and added to-
their recipe booklet on baking.
The new book contains recipes for
their all-purpose flour as well as
for the self rising flour. A new
product is their self-rising corn

Finland Gets
New Cabinet

Finland formed a new cabinet
recently-one which brings in the
Socialists-in an effort to stabilize
her economy.
urho kekkonen, the Agrarian
leader, continues as premier. The
foreign ministry remains in the
hands of Aake Carte, a member
of the Swedish Peoples Party.
President JUNO Paasikivi, who
was not affected by the change,
administered the oath of office to
the new cabinet.
Socialist Party Chairman Emil
Skog is the new minister of de-
Tense. Vieno j. Sukselainen, Agra
rian and former finance minister,
is the new minister of interior.
The new cabinet is expected TO
continue policy of good relations
with Russia, laid down by the pre-
vious government.

Introducing Scandinavia
Norway
Outlook

OUTLOOK
For 1851, he Norwegians have
well-laid plans concerning increas-
ed rearmaments, increased foreign
trade, and a secure home defense
bolstered by the. passing of a rig
orous national security law.
Communist protests against all
these plans are only vaguely heard
in Norway, however, as only per
cent of Norway's 100000 people
voted the Communist ticket. The
Communist vote was not sufficient
to get the party seat in Parlia-
ment.
Banana Year
For 1851, too, will be the ban
anas which arrived, as promised,
before Christmas, but which will
not ripen until we'll into the new
year. The arrival of a banana
boat" is headline news in Norway,
but only those holding "children's
cards" are entitled to any.
The recent shipment will mean
four or five bananas for each
child, many of whom, born during
the war and after, have never
tasted banana.
Norway, like other Marshall aid
countries whose economies are not
yet stable enough to carry on UNI
der their own steam, looks with
some apprehension toward next
June 1, which has been mentioned
in Paris as a possible closing date
for further ECA help.
Representatives of the ECA in
Paris, however, have treasured
Norway and other countries that
would be affected that no definite
deadline has been set and that in
any case, the individual problems
of each country will be taken into
account before such aid is STOP
ped.
Help to YugOslavia
All Scandinavia is eagerly
awaiting the January meeting in
Paris Of the ECA representatives,
who will discuss further freelist-
ing of dutiable goods. The pro-
posals now in circulation are far
from satisfactory to either the
Norwegians or the Danes, who do
not see how they can afford to
forego the internal revenue which
duties now bring in On many of
the goods listed.
Still under severe controls, the
Norwegian economy may yet prove
the Swedes little hasty in doing
away with all controls, which
many Swedes are now asking to
have reinstated. At any rate, Nor
way has been able to join Great
Britain and the United States in
helping the Yugoslav Government,
by granting a five-year credit to
Marshal Tito for the purchase of
foodstuffs and other goods.
During the first three years, this
credit will be interest-free. For
the last two years, 2 per cent in
terest will be charged.
