Across The Kitchen Table
with Blanche I’ease
Oh, Mama, here's that woman
again!” Thank you! I do want to
come in. If I’m a little late it’s
because there is so much for a farm
woman to do these days. The cows
have gone down on their milk and
■are don’t get as much cream as we
> would like. I’m going to pack some
butter before long. I make a salt
brine strong enough to hold up an
egg. I churn the cream as usual,
but take special pains to wash and
mix the butter well. Salt it just
as you always do. Form into pats
and immerse in the salt brine.
Weight the butter down so that it
is kept under the salt brine. It will
not absorb the salt from the brine,
and will keep sweet and edible for
weeks.
You have already purchased your
Thanksgiving turkey? I think that
is an excellent idea. If you “finish”
the turkey yourself, you will be
sure that there are fatty particles
just under the skin which will as
sure you of a juicy roasted fowl.
When you buy a live turkey how
ever you must remember that part
of it will dress away. Allow a
pound of live turkey for each per
son to be served. A dressed turkey
accordingly will serve more, a fif
teen pound dressed turkey serving
from twenty to twenty-five people.
There are stuffings and stuffings
of various kinds and for the dif
ferent kinds of poultry used on
Thanksgiving day. Perhaps your
family insits on oyster stuffing and
maybe your neighbor votes for a
fruit stuffing, or an old fashioned
bread stuffing. You may want to
try these.
Oyster Stuffing
Suitable for turkey or capon.
Melt Vi cup butter and add to 1 Mi !
cops dried bread crumbs, and 1V4
cups cracker crumbs. Wash and
add 1 pint oysters, remove the
tough muscles. Add 2 teaspoons
salt, pepper, and V4 teaspoon mace
or nutmeg and % cup oyster liquor.
Leave plenty of room for the stuf
fing to swell.
Fruit Stuffing
This is delicious for duck. Cover
6 dried apricots which have been
diced and G dried prunes with hot
water and simmer until plump.
Cool, drain and dice them. Remove

the sections from 2 oranges and
chop. Mix fruits and add 14 whole
pecan meats which have been
coarsely chopped. Add 4 cups soft
bread crumbs, and mix lightly. Add
1 lightly beaten egg.
Goose Dressing
If you selected a goose, here is
a stuffing intended especially for
this fowl. Mix the ingredients in
the order listed. 4 cups soft bread
crumbs, 1 cup unsweetened cooked
diced prunes. 2 apples grated, 2
tablespoons minced onion, 2 tea
spoons salt, 2 teaspoons sage, Vfc
teaspoon paprika, 1 teaspoon curry
powder, 4 teaspoon summer sav
ory, Vz teaspoon thyme, % tea
spoon sweet majoram, one-third
cup melted butter, and 1 cup boil
ing water. Pack loosely in fowl.
Plain Dread Stuffing
Soak 2 quarts of stale but not
hard bread in cold water or milk.
Squeeze quite dry. Melt % cup
butter in a frying pan, add the
bread and stir until well mixed and
the bread is slightly browned. Place
in a mixing bowl and add 2 tea
spoons salt, 1 teaspoon ground
sage, % teaspoon pepper and 1 egg.
For a variation I like to add a
chopped onion, which has been
slightly cooked in butter before
adding to the bread. You might
like to add a sliced apple, or a cup
of soaked prunes. If fruit is added,
add 1 tablespoon sugar.
Walnut Poultry Dressing
Cook the giblets from one chick
en, duck or turkey in boiling water
until tender. Then chop giblets
fine. Remove crusts from 1 large
loaf stale bread and crumb the
bread fine. Mix the giblets and
crumbs with 2 teaspoons salt, 2
teaspoons sage, 2 cups walnut ker
nels and 4 tablespoons fat. Stuff
the fowl with walnut dressing and
baste with the water in which the
giblest were cooked.
Thanksgiving is a time when
families get together. I don’t be
lieve that we serve as much, or eat
as largely as our forefathers. Time
was when tables fairly groaned
with food. Mother put on her
great linen tablecloth which had
been a wedding present. At each
end of the table she set a glass dish
of pickles, dill or sweet kind, and
the table was dotted with small
fancy dishes of relishes, beet
pickles, jelly and preserves. Celery
was in long shallow containers
while mashed potatoes were piled
high in bowls. The turkey which
usually graced the table was of
enormous proportions. (Now-a
days turkeys are smaller, because
the demand is for a smaller bird.)
Pie and cake and perhaps some
other dessert was served, and folks
felt offended if vegetables were
not many and varied. That day is
past. We eat more sensibly and
it doesn’t take us a couple of days
to recover from a heavy holiday
dinner. . .iv
