By MBS. B. KEOWN
Ham is a favorite
Easter and it can be
so many w-ays one doesn’t seem
to tire of it. '
Some coofcs bake the-ham for
several hours. We 'like to boil it
first letting it Simmer for about
two 'hours after .boiling it for 10-
1'5 minutes. After removing the
skin, we cover the fat surface
with brown sugar, dot it with
whole clovers and hake until
browned and tender. Pineapple
rings held on with toothpicks
give a nice flavor.
We usually make -croquettes to
finish up the ham and this is
how we make them.
Ham Croquettes
2 cups ground iham
1 to 2 cups -thick white sauce
-salt and pepper.
Moisten ground ham with the
white sauce. (Chill -in refrigerator.
Divide into small portions and
shape into croquettes. Roll in fine
crackeT crumbs, dip in 'beaten
egg then roll again in crumbs.
Fry -in .golden 'brown in quite
deep fat turning often.
* * * *_
For a dessert that carries out
the theme of Easter, and is quick
ly prepared, top slices of jelly roll
with whipped cream. Lay a. peach
half on top of the cream, cut side
down giving the effect of an egg.
This suggestion was given us
by Mrs. C. IW. Kestle of Clinton.* * * *
