PURITY FUDUR More Bread and Better Bread f Thick slices of toast may be placed under each bird in the pan before taking them out, and so served. Coarse bread crumbs, fried brown in butter, may be sprinkled over the bird on platter before being brought to the table. Bread sauce or brown gravy may also be used, as well as 2 or 3 tablespoons of butter put into the well-dressed bird. When liver is used, cut up and roll same to a paste and mix with butter, salt, pepper, and spread on the toast. RABBITS or hares are only fit for use when young. They should be drawn directly after being killed, and should not be skinned until ready for use. BAKED RABBIT Cut rabbit up and place in pan of hot water. Simmer about 20 minutes. Eemove from water, drain and sprinkle meat with salt and pepper. Dip in Purity Flour, egg and crumbs. Place in well-greased dripping-pan and bake 20 minutes in a hot oven. After the first 5 minutes baste with bacon dripping. Arrange on platter and pour over it thickened gravy made in the pan in which the rabbit was baked. BROILED RABBIT Skin and wipe the rabbit. Prepare for the broiler like chicken and cook over charcoal embers till done. Season with salt and pepper just before it is finished and pour over it melted butter mixed with 2 tablespoons vinegar and 1 of prepared mustard. When in doubt about your dessert, bake a PURITY FLOUR Pie Page One Hundred aad Fear AEOAST OF BEEF is much improved by searing the cut side just before putting it in the oven. This is done by laying it in a hot pan ovpr a bright fire for 2 or 3 minutes. As soon as one side is brown, turn tverf brown the other side, and place it in a hot oven immediately In roasting meat it is customary to allow 15 minutes to a pound of beef, but when it has been seared before it is p aced m the ov n at Last i an hour can be deducted from the usual time allowed an ordinary roast of 8 pounds^ The 'advantage of the searing process is not, however, so much in saving time in roasting as in searing the juices of the meat by the instant forming of crusts on the outside. ROLLED ROAST browned, reduce the heat and bake 15 minutes to each pound of meat. YORKSHIRE PUDDING Before meat is done make the pudding. Pour some of the dripping from under the meat into another baking-pan, turn the pudding into it and bake 45 minutes. 3 eggs. 1 pint milk. i cup Purity Flour. 1 teaspoon salt.
