Serve Pancakes For Supper
By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE, Homemakinjr Editor
Well, here was are at the last
Thursday in December and next
week we’ll have to start learning
to write “1956.” And here I’ve
just gotten used to the idea of
writing “1955.” Time gets to be a
more slippery old cuss every year
and goes by before you ever know
what’s happened to you.
By now everyone is probably
so surfeited with rich foods that
something plain and ordinary will
taste pretty good again. How
many of you ever serve pancakes
for supper? If you have some left
over chicken after new year’s,
you might cream it the next day
and serve it, a couple of table
spoons full inside a rolled up and
baked pancake. That is, bake the
pancake first, put on the chicken
and roll it up. Serve and eat at
once!
Because your budget is prob
ably screaming for help and you’ll
need to squeeze it anyway for the
new year fowl, how about serving
a savory salmon loaf one of these
days? It’s good, economical and
easily made.
SAVORY SALMON LOAF
One-half cup crisp buttered
bread crumbs, two eggs (slightly
beaten), % cup milk, two cups
(one pound) canned pink salmon
(flaked), one teaspoon lemon
juice, % teaspoon salt, dash pep
per, % teaspoon sage, two tea
spoons finely shopped onion, one
tablespoon chopped parsley, one
tablesoon melted butter.
Combine ingredients in order
given. Pack firmly in buttered
loaf pan and bake in moderate
oven of 350 F. for 45 minutes.
Turn out on platter and serve
with creamed peas as sauce.
Serves six.
Another good and economical
way to serve salmon is—
SALMON POT PIE
Four tablespoons butter, one
tablespoon minced onion, six ta
blespons flour, one cup salmon
juice and water, 1% cups milk,
one teaspoon salt, one tablespoon
lemon juice, dash paprika, one
cup diced cooked celery, one cup
cooked new peas, one-pound can
salmon.
Melt the butter and add onion.
Cook two minutes, then stir in
flour, salmon juice and water and
milk. Cook, stirring until thick
and smooth. Add seasonings, cel
ery, peas and salmon, broken into
large pieces. Pour into a casserole
and top with biscuit dough rolled
thin and cut in fancy shapes.
Bake in a hot oven of 400 F. about
20 to 30 minutes ,or until crust is
nicely browned. Buttered bread
strips may replace biscuit dough
if desired. Serves six.

Dear Mrs. Pease:
These cold winter days are just
right for catching up on the let
ters that have been put back for
writing where there is less to do.
Certainly these below zero tem
peratures do not invite any out
doors activities that aren’t neces
sary. Living on the farm gives me
a few necessary out-of-doors
chores but a couple of very quick
trips to the chicken house each
day are about the limit of my
airings on these cold days.
The youngsters seem to thrive
on playing outside and the fact
that I don’t stick my nose out un
less it is necessary definitely
places me in the older age group.
However, I am not one of the
oldsters who feels the younger
generation is wild and less re
sponsible than we were as teen
agers. To be perfectly honest,
Elanche, the only thing I can
see wrong with today’s teenagers
is the simple fact that I am not
one of them anymore.
Christmas will soon be here.
(Editorial note: This letter was
naturally writen before Christ
mas.) I imagine many of your
readers are head over heels in
gift buying and wrapping now,
but not me. I’m the gal who waits
until the last minute rush is on
and then dashes out and winds
up exhausted but full of the old
holiday hustle and bustle spirit,
after a spree of last minute buy
ing.
I have discovered a household
hint, that works so well I’d like
to pass it on to your readers. Cut
circles of “foil wrap” just larger
than the burner of your gas or
electric stove. Shape them down
around the burner like a dish
with a hole in the middle for the
burner (or air vent if your stove
is electric). These are very easy
to cut out and they catch any
droppings from the cooking that
would otherwise be cooked fast
to your burner trough, and have
I
to be scrubbed up. These can be«
changed as needed and they do
an excellent job of keeping toe
stove clean under the burner.
Well, this letter has grown to
quite a length so I had better quit
for this time.
MRS. VELDON B.
PINKERMAN
