(No. 171) the fillet of veal being the same
as the round of beef and solid meat.
The dressing is pressed into the cavity
left by removing the bone, and inclosed
also by the skirt of fat, which should
be left on the meat drawn close and tied
around with twine. The surplus stuffing
may be baked in a small pan and served
with the meat and gravy. For best
stuffing see No. 62. Half the quantity
will serve /or veal, and an egg added
will make it richer. Drippings, lard or
butter can be used instead of suet.

In calculating quantities to be pre-
pared it is never necessary to count one
portion of every dish to each person.
Perhaps some who take fish will decline
meat, or will take corn and not potatoes,
and only half the number will call for
pie.
536— Tomato and Green Pea Soup.
One of the best looking soups when
the pease are green and the soup is rich
colored. This day it was the soup of
necessity rather than choice for in truth
we had a half can of tomatoes (8 cents)
and nothing else for soup unless the late
and neglected garden would yield some
trifles. Found a few green pease, not
enough to use as a vegetable, but about
two cupfuls do cents) are plenty in soup,
also some carrots and onions as thick as
straws. Where there are no herbs, or
cloves, or parsely a very small quantity
of the feathery green carrot leaves may
be used with advantage, minced and
dropped in the soup just before serving.
Made tomato soup as directed at No.
166, and let the green pease cook in it
about one-halt hour. Made four quarts
and used one-half can tomatoes. Little
burnt sugar to improve the color.
537— Stuffed hiilet of Veal.
The same in the main as the brisket
This morn-
j ing used some curdled mijk for batter
cakes and still there remained 4 quarts
more, and part of it was cream. It
would make good cream cheese or smear-
kase if it could be spared, but there be-
ing none of the usual pudding ingre-
dients in thQ house this^ comes in oppor-
tunely for a good pudding. Curd from
the cheese vats, that has been curdled
with rennet and is not sour, is the chief
ingredient in the genuine cheesecakes of
old Maryland cookery; mixtures made
too rich for everyday dinners. This is of
the same kind and can be baked without
a crust of pastry ; it is a pudding and not
a tart or pie.
I pound or little more of scalded curd.
y^ teaspoon soda. *
5^ cup sugar.
J^ cup butter.
I cup fine or minced bread crumbs.
I cup milk.
Nutmeg or other flavoring.
3 eg^s✪ Cream Curd Pudding.
It does not make much difference how
the ingredients are put together, but it is
best to first lake the dry articles and
pound them smooth and then add the
eggs and milk.
To obtain the curd set the pan con-
taining a gallon of curdled milk on the
stove when it is not very hot and let
come to^ boiling heat, then pour it into a
fine strainer or in a napkin to drain.
There will be nearly a two-quart pan
of pudding from the above ingredients^
Bake light brown and serve with a sauce.
