1 1/2 pounds liver 1 cup crumbs 1 egg
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon minced onion
2 thin slices bacon
Simmer liver ten minutes in as little water as possible. Grind liver and bacon, mix with other ingredients and bake as Beef Loaf.
1 pound Hamburg 4 tablespoons flour
1 teaspoon salt 3 cups milk
Brown the Hamburg or sausage in a greased skillet, stirring frequently to separate well. Sprinkle flour over the cooked meat, add the milk slowly, stirring rapidly to keep well blended. Cook until thickened, put to back of stove and simmer ten minutes. Salt and serve.
2 cups white sauce No. 1/2 pound wieners two
Skin and dice the wieners. Add to white sauce and let stand on back of stove ten minutes before serving. Good with baked potatoes.
2 cups cooked meat 1 cup cooked oatmeal, rolled oats, or hominy grits
2 teaspoons onion juice
1 bouillon
Salt
Even meat from a well cooked soup bone is very good pressed. Run through food chopper and mix with cereal, seasonings and cube dissolved in two tablespoons boiling water. Put into small bowl, cover and weight. Let stand three hours in cold place. Turn out and slice.
Roll a disjointed chicken in flour or corn meal, brown quickly in greased skillet, and put into casserole. Blend two tablespoons flour with fat in skillet, add slowly three cups milk and cook until slightly thickened. Pour over chicken. If milk does not come to top of chicken, add more.
Cook in oven, BELOW the boiling point until tender. Length of cooking can be determined only by age of fowl. Even a five-year-old hen, cooked after this method, would take herself for a spring fry. Salt when half cooked. Can be cooked to advantage in fire-less cooker.
Chicken should never be cooked the same day it is killed. Soon after the fowl is killed, the muscles stiffen, and do not relax for about twenty hours. If cooked during this time it cannot possibly be made tender, although it is cooked until the meat falls from the bones.
