Large, thick chops cannot be so easily
cooked in this fashion, but small lamb
chops may readily be prepared in a chaf-
72 $0e Cftoftng^iBt} puppet
ing-dish, and are hardly less excellent
than those that have been broiled on a
gridiron. The essential point is to have
the dish so hot when the meat is laid in
as to sear the surface at once, and thus
prevent the escape of the juices.
BROILED BEEFSTEAK.
This may be cooked exactly as are the
lamb chops.
BEEFSTEAK WITH WINE SAUCE.

longer, turning it several times. Just be-
fore serving it, add the juice of a lemon.
