Palatable Winter Dishes
O ruV IPF f fit f mrt n r-r-n
I fritter, which id much uaed
III 1 1 o m ii tii, so a a j t u n r .
Ilft two ergs without
separating, on cup of mllU,
and one pint of canned corn. Put a
little Fait, sugar and enough flour for
thick battr; add one tcaspoonf ul of
baking powder to flour, one table
spoonful .of butter, and fry In hot
lard.
Hominy puffs are another delirious
southern llsh. served for luncheon and
broakfait. Take one quart of cold
boiled hcmlny, four heaping table
spoonfuls of flour, two teospoonful
of baking powder, one coffee cup of
sweet hillk. one tfaepoonful of salt
and four eggs. Use thoroughly cooked
hominy, and when cold stir in the
well beaten yelks, then flour, milk and
salt alternately with the baking pow
der. Add last the whltea of eggs
beaten to a stiff froth and stirred In
slowly. Have Inrd boiling and drop
th mixture In with a spoon and fry
a rich brown.
Macaroni properly cooked makes a
palatnble winter dish. An excellent
Kentucky recipe Is:
Boll fourteen short sticks or twenty
four long ones In sslt water for
twenty minutes. Drain off water i.nd
mix with one-half pint of grated
cheese (light measure), one Vint of
cream, or one pint of new milk, with
ono-half tahlespoonful of butter, and
one grated biscuit.
Place on top of stove and let It
cook until It begin to thicken, then
place in oven long enough to brown.
Oysters Au Gratln Thl recipe Is
enough for six people: Eighteen oys
ters, eighteen mushrooms, one-half
teaspoon salt, one-eighth teaspoon red
pepper, on cup whit sauce. Melt
two tablespoon butter In the frying
pan and fry the mushroom In It
until they are delicate brown. Put
three oysters on an oyster heil with
three mushrooms and pour over them
some white sauce. Pprlnkle chees
nd cracker crumb over them and
bake until brown. Serve hot.
Prun Souffle Remove th pit from
a large cupful of stewed prune and
chop fine. Add th white of three
eggs and half a cup of sugar beaten
to a atiff froth. Mix well, turn Into
a buttered dish, and bake thirty min
ute In a moderate oven. Serve with
whipped cream. It la desirable to
cook thl lit Individual eups, butter
the cups, fill only two-thirds full, to
allow for puffing up of the eggs, and
set the cups In a pan of water to
bske. Some like a dash of cinnamon
In thl.
Another recipe for prune whip In
which the baking 1 omitted la espe
cially rich.
, Take one pint of stewed prunes,
one-tlilrd pint of thick cream, white
of six eggs, and raspberry or logan
berry Jelly. After thoroughly draining
the prunes, pit them and rub them
through a colender; avoid rubbing the
skins a much as possible. Beat th
white of the egg to a stiff froth;
then by degree beat thl Into sifted
prunes. If not weet enough to suit
the taste, add a teaspoonful of sugar.
The delicacy of thl dish depend
largely upon th thoroughness with
which th Ingredient are beaten to
gether. When well beaten together,
pour Into a glass dish. Whip tho
cream and apread evenly over the top
of ' pudding, then fleck the whipped
cream with bits of the Jelly. Serve
with cream, or. If preferrred, with a
custard made from th yolk of six
