Sweet Potatoes (even size) Take brush and scrub the potatoes clean, removing any bad spots. Place in oven and bake for 30 minutes. Test with fork. Time of cooking depends on size of potatoes and the kind of fire you have. When done, remove from oven or they will dry up. Candied Sweet Potatoes (100 Scouts): 40 lbs. Sweet Potatoes Wash and peel and then cut lengthwise. Take bake pan, grease, and place potatoes out in layers. Pour over stock and sprinkle about 2 lbs. of sugar over the top. Oleo or butter may be drudged over the potatoes before the sugar is sprinkled. Beike in medium oven till done. Boiled Rice (100 Scouts) : 8 lbs. Washed Rice 5 gals. Cold Water 2 ozs. Salt Weigh out the right quantity of rice, wash with two changes of cold water, then add five gallons of water. Add salt, place on stove, bring to quick boil for five minutes, and remove to back part of range and let simmer slowly. Don't stir with spoon and keep lid on tight. The steam will do the cooking. This is the whole secret of rice cooking. If rice is washed well it does not let the starch settle on the bottom of your pan to start burning. Opening the Ud several times lets the steam get away. Stiring breaks the grain of the rice, lets out the natural flavor and causes the starch to settle and scorch in the bottom of the pan. Fried Rice (100 Scouts): 10 lbs washed Rice 3 lbs. Fat 2 lbs. Onions (sliced) 3 lbs. sliced Ham or cooked Pork Meat Wash and boil your rice, as boiled rice recipes. Let it cool off and slice your ham or pork. Take bake pan and add the fat when hot. Add the onions (browned nicely), ham, and rice. Stir constantly with cake turner, keeping the rice off the" bottom of the pan. When slightly browned, season with salt and pepper and serve hot. Just before removing from pan, beat up five eggs and pour over the rice. Stir till the eggs are cooked and remove quickly. 35 Strwrd Tomato (100 Srouta): Ton No. 3 rans of Tomntora Pour in smici'imiis. A<1<1 3 qf.H. Btork. 2 ozH. siipiir. H;ilt luid [wpiHT.
