MEAT
GENERAL RULES.
Meat should be removed from paper as soon as it comes from market,
weighed, and wiped with a damp cloth. It should be placed in a granite
or earthenware dish, covered, and kept in a cool place until time of using.
Only tender cuts of meat should be broiled, pan-broiled or roasted.
When meat is to be cooked by any of these methods, it is first seared, then
cooked at a lower temperature. in searing, the albumin on the outside of
the meat is hardened and juices retained.
Tough meat should be cooked in water to be made tender—the heat
and water soften the tough, connective tissue. Boiling water should be
poured over the meat to sear cut surfaces, that the juices may not be
drawn out by the water. After boiling 5 minutes, temperature should be
reduced and meat cooked until tender just below the boiling point. If
the water bubbles, it is too hot. Ail tough meat may be cooked tender in
this way. The Kireless Cooker may be used.
The time for roasting meat, or cooking it in water, varies with the
kind, weight and quality.
For roasts weighing less than 8 lbs., allow 12 to 15 minutes to the lb.
and 15 minutes extra. ier arcmannar ts ore
For meat weighing less than 10 lbs., to be cooked in water, allow 20
ninutes to the ib. and 20 minutes extra.
Time for broiling meat varies with the thickness of the meat.
For lamb, mutton and pork increase the time of cooking, as these
meats should be thoroughly cooked. ;
Stock is prepared by soaking meat and bone in cold water and cooking
with seasonings at a low temperature for several hours. Strain, clear,
and cool uncovered. The fat must not be removed until ready to use
stock; it excludes the air and prevents decomposition. Before using, it
must be entirely removed. Small globules of fat may be removed from
cold broth with a cloth which has been dipped in boiling water, then
wrung dry, or by straining through a cloth; from hot broth, by using
blotting paper or a piece of bread. This fat may be used in place of drip-
ping.
Trimmings of fat from meat should be tried out and used.
Meat which remains from a soup stock may be used in any dish where
cooked meat is required, with the addition of seasonings or beef extract
to give it flavor.
