INTOXICATING LIQUORS AVOIDED
In all recipes contained in the department of cookery, which
advised the use of intoxicating liquors, we have substituted fruit
juices—often using orange or lemon juice. Nothing can excel the
unfermented juices of fruits as a flavoring, or for giving a desirable
piquancy to various dishes. ‘They make an almost perfect substi-
tute for liquors, and for obvious reasons are much safer for family
use. Fruit juice can be easily substituted for liquor in any recipe
by those who desire to do so. In fruit cake, 2 tablespoons of
molasses is equal to 1 wineglass of brandy or other liquor. ‘Those
so disposed can substitute molasses for liquor in this way in any
such recipe found in books, magazines or newspapers. A cake
thus made will be quite as good as though the liquor was used.

Soups are of two classes. Soups made with ‘“‘stock,’’ and
soups without.
To the former class belong bouillon, brown stock, white stock,
consommé and lambstock, or mutton-broth.
Soups without stocks are classed as cream soups, purées and
bisques.
The best cuts for stock are: shanks of beef, neck cuts, knuckles
of veal. Lower part of round.
Any coarse, tough part, is more appropriate, because it con-
tains more extractives and more gelatine.
A good rule is to allow a quart or a little less of water to a
pound of meat. This makes a rich soup. Simmer slowly, and
when done, strain through a colander. If a clear soup is desired,
it should be strained through a hair sieve or clean towel. All
bones, pieces of beef, remnants of fowl, such as chicken and turkey,
add a rich flavor to many kinds of soup. Oftentimes bits of meat
and the odds and ends of fowl alone make a nice soup, but by
adding some fresh meat, a rich flavor is imparted. Meats for
soup should always be put on to cook in cold water, and allowed
to simmer slowly for several hours in order that the essence of the
meat may be drawn out thoroughly.
