HomeMy WebLinkAboutZurich Herald, 1934-02-08, Page 3Delicious Lamb Dishes
While'most of us prefer lamb chops,
there are many dishes that are equal-
ly appetizing from the shoulder or
breast of lamb.
Each quarter usually weighs froXn
Dix to nine pounds, but the butcher
'quill be glad to cut in such sized por-
tions as his customer wants, There
its little difference of bone and waste
in the forequarter and in the chops,
tud the price usually 1e considerably
less In the forequarter.
Forequarter Tougher
The forequarter meat is naturally
tougher than that of the hindquarter
and in tough meats the connective
tissue is thb part that must receive
Special attention.
By separating the meat, bone and
fat, each one can be used to advant-
age. The meat can be put through the
food chopper ready for attractive
chopped "steaks." The bone may be
used for broth, the fat chopped and
easily fried out to be used for pan-fry-
ing.
Variety in dishes made with the
forequarter of lamb often may be ac-
complished by using suitable sauces
and other accompaniments such as
rice and spaghetti.
The small family will find two
pounds of lamb from the forequarter
sufficient for its needs. The larger
family, of course, will need more in
proportion to its size.
Ways to Prepare
When the meat is left in one piece
it may be boiled, roasted, braised with
vegetables or cooked and pressed and
Served cold.
Cut in pieces, Irish stew, fricassee
of lamb, casserole of lamb and lamb
curry are sure to please.
When the meat and bozie are separ-
ated before cooking, several pleasing
dishs may be concocted. The pieces
of clear meat niay be pounded thin—
Trenched." These are broiled and
served with minted currant jelly. Or,
instead of flattening the fillets, each
one may be wrapped with a strip of
breakfast bacon, held with a toothpick
and broiled or baked in a hot oven.
If the meat is chopped, it may be
made into cakes like Hamburg steaks
and broiled or fried.
The bone may be boiled to make
broth or stock. If the meat, with vege-
tables and rice, is added to this broth,
a nourishing . dish known . as Scotch
broth is made.
• Chopped lamb ooinbined with crack
er crumbs and eggs makes a delect-
able meat loaf. Served with Iamb
chops, for popularity.
The nutritive value of this inexpen-
sive meat is quite as great as that of
the choicer, more costly cuts. The
flavor is just as delicious in the
shoulder as in the leg.
Hot Cakes For Tea
Hot buttered scones and cakes
must always find a place on the win-
ter tea ta'bie.
Most of us have our own favorite
recipes, but a change is often wee
comed.
Here is a simple recipe for scones,
for a start.
Mix together 2 cups pastry flour, a
pinch of salt, half a teaspoon cream
of tartar, a quarter teaspoon bicar-
bonate of soda, rub in 4 tablespoons
butter, then add two tablespoons sugar
and the same of sultanas.
Mix to a stiff paste with a little
lemon juice, and divide into small
milk or an egg, add a few drops of
rounds. Place, on a greased tin and
bake in a quick oven for about ten
minutes.
Cool on a wire rack. When re-
quired, split open, spread with butter
and place in a hot oven for a few
minutes.

Wafer Pancakes
In Scotland you will usually find
delicious thin pancakes on the tea
table. Here is a recipe. • •
Sift together one cup flour and a
pinch of salt. Add a beaten egg, half
a cup milk, and a tablespoon melted
butter, and beat well. Lastly add a
teaspoon baking powder.
Grease a frying pan with a nut of
butter and when the pan is hot, drop
in a ,spoonful of the mixture at a time,
brown on both sides, and serve at
once.
A tablespoon of grated chocolate
added to the above ingredients makes
these pancakes specially appreciated
by the children.
Keeping Hose Straight
Keeping stockings straight is large-
ly a matter of knowing where to
fasten your garters. If you fasten the
back garters first, directly over the
seams, and then hook the front ones,
your stockings never will get twisted.
Soiled Windows
Most of the modern housewives are
quite ready to let the windows ac-
cumulate a bit of soil in freezing
weather, but if they annoy you so
much you must do something _about
them, moisten your ,soft cloth with
kerosene instead of water.
Household Hints
To clean a deep vase, allow a solu-
tion of salt and vinegar to stand in it
a short time
To scald milk easily, set the jug in a
pan of cold water. Whenwater boils
the milk is ready.
To make lettuce crisp hang in a
draughtafter draining, tied lightly in
a tea cloth.
To ventilate a room place a pitcher
of cold water on a table in your room
and it will absorb all gases. The
water will be entirely unfit for use.
To mend cut in tablescloth or other
fine linen work, button hole stitch
with not too coarse thread all around
cuts, then turn on the wrong side and
holding two edges firmly overcast the
edges.
Use dental floss to mend with. Try
it for buttons.
To clean wall paper: Use 1 cup flour
and paster of Paris. Roll it into a
moist ball. Clean the paper,
CORNSTARCH PUDDINGS
• Eggs Aid Dish
Eggs may be added to the majority -of
cornstarch puddings and contribute a
pleasing delicacy as well as food
value. If eggs are 'used, remember
never to add the egg to the hot corm
starche mixture. The •heat will cook
the tiny particles of egg almost im-
mediately and a speokled mixture will
result. Pour the cornstarch mixture
slowly into the beaten egg, stirring
contently. When thoroughly blended,
return to double boiler and cook one
minute. The starch mixture must be
well cooked bfore combining with egg.
A cornstarch pudding should be stiff
enough to hold its shape when un -
molded but not hard or solid. Its tex-
ture should be perfectly smooth and
tender and its flavor delicate but not
insipid.
The following rule for vauilla corn-
starch pudding may be varied in sev-
eral ways. Chocolate is always a popu-
lar flavor and may be made from the
basic rule by adding two squares of
melted chocolate to the corntaroh and

sugar before the scalded milk is pour-
ed
oured over it.
Nuts may be added to vanilla' or
chocolate pudding.
Cornstarch Pudding
Two cups milk, 3 tablespobns corn-
starch, 6 tablespoons sugar, i/, • tea-
spoon salt, 1 egg, y/z teaspoon vanilla.
Scald 1% cups milk in top of double
boiler. When tiny bubbles appear
around the edge of the milk it is hot
enough. Mix cornstarch and 2 table-
spoons sugar with remaining cold
milk. Stir until perfectly smooth.
Pour about half the scalded mill: into.
the cold n silk mixture, stirring rapidly.
Add this to milk in the double boiler,
stirring constantly. Cook and stir un-
til thick and smooth. Remove spoon;
cover and cook over hot water, stir-
ring occasionally, for twenty minutes.
The water in the bottom of the double
boiler should be kept boiling. Beat
egg slightly with remaining sugar and
salt and slowly add cornstarch mix-
ture, stirring constantly. Return to
double boiler and cook one minute.
Remove from heat and let cool a few
minutes. Add vanilla and beat well.
Turn into molds which have been
dipped in cold water and let stand un-
til cold. Then chill thoroughly before
serving.
An intriguing way to serve 'this pud-
ding is to put a teaspoon of sweeten-
ed sherry in each sherbet glass, add
the pudding and pour another teaspoon
of sweetened sherry over each. Top
with whipped cream.
For children serve the pudding with
sugar and cream, whipped cream or
a sauce such as is served over ice
cream.
Bill of Lading Required
All trucksters.handling livestock are
required by Government regulations,
under which their licenses are issued,
to furnish farmers with bills of lading
on livestock shipments. Many farmers
are not aware of this regulation or the
protection it affords them and many
cases come to light where livestock
shippers have suffered loss through
not insisting on a bill of lading from
th trucker who hauls his stock to mar-
ket.
Under the Highways Act,' every
trucker transporting livestock for hire
is required under his P. C. V. license
to furnish. a bill of lading to the ship-
per. The Regulation affords the pro-
ducer an opportunity of determining
to whom his livestock is sold. In any
case it assures the shipper that he
will get his money and a full and cor-
rect statement from the purchaser to
whom the trucker delivers his load.
These regulations do not apply to
farmers transporting their own live-
stock nor to drovers who purchase out-
right from the farmer and transport
their purchases to market. But if the
farmer fails to insist oil a bill of lad-
ing from the trucker who hauls his
cattle he can have no assurance of
where his livestock is sold or to
whom, or at what prices, and more-
over, he has to accept the trucker's re-
sponsibility Thr returning the money.
With a bill of lading from the truck-
er a farmer can make sure that his
cattle are not sold directly to a Packer
by whom the trucker may be employ-
ed, if he desires the open competition

Matthew
esson)—Matthew 7:1-29. Golden Text—
Every tree that bringeth not forth
good fruit Is hewn down, and cast

"All things therefore whatsoever ye
would that men should do unto you,
-even so do ye also unto them,"
"Therefore" goes back to the preceding
verses of the chapter. As we are to
stand before the judgment seat of God
(verse 1), so we are to judge others
with charity. "For this is the law and
the prophets." This rule summarizes
the teaching of the Old Testament,
which Christ came to fulfill (see Matt.
5: 17). "
"Enter ye in by the narrow gate."
Enter thus, says Christ, into the king-
dom of God. The way of the gospel is
narrow because it is the way of hu-
mility. The gate of heaven is too
strait for self-justification. Finally,
the path of the gospel is narrow be-
cause it is the path of love. "For wide
is the gate,and broad is the way, that
leadeth to destruction." The Bible
knows only two classes because, it
knows of only two characters. The
Bible divides hien into godly and un-
godly; righteous and unrighteous;
good _arid bad. . "And many.are they
Ville" enter in thereby." The Easy
Gate! Behold the crowds that are
surging through it! This gate at-
tracts; this gate invites.
"For narrow is the gate, and strait-
ened the way, that leadeth unto life."
The gate is strait, but it is always
open. The narrow way is narrow, but
it grows wider as you go on. The end
is everlasting life. "And few are they
that find it." Who said that few find
the way, and in what tone did he utter
the words? Jesus spoke them, and
spoke then with a sigh. His com-
plaint that fes* are conning is the
sweetest and strongest encouragement
for all to come.
"Beware of false prophets." Pro-
phets here not in the sense of seers
foretellers, but in the more eonuncli
Old Testament sense of preachers,
forth -tellers. "Who come to you in
sheep's clothing, but inwardly are
ravening wolves." These false teach-
ers wear the outward appearance of
guileless seekers after truth, while all
the time they are seeking to destroy
the truth.
"By their fruits ye shall know
them." There was held at the Colum-
bian Exposition a Parliament of Reli-
gions, at which representatives of the
religions of the world presented their
theories, and each went home quite
satisfied that he had exhibited a more
perfect theory of religion than the
others. It was a poor test. The only
test worth anything would have been
the bringing together of the peoples
that the religions had made. "Do .nen
gather grapes of thorns, or figs of
thistles?" In the natural world you
will not find valuable fruit growing
upon a common bush; no more will
you in the spiritual. What a man
says must be lived out in his life. Hie
character will assuredly translate
itself into his actions.
"Even so every good tree bringeth
forth good fruit; but the corrupt tree
bringeth forth evil fruit." The great-
tian. Christ's mightiest miracle is he
who incarnates the Christ.
"A good tree cannot bring forth evil
fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring
forth good fruit." The saloon is an
evil tree. Poets may laud the spark-
ling wine cup, but always there is a
deadly snake in the grass.
"Every tree that bringeth not forth
good fruit is hewn down, and cast into
the fire." The Jews did not cultivate
trees for shade or beauty, but only:
for their fruit.
"Therefore by their fruits ye shall
know them." A noted scoffer was once
interrupted in his noisy excitement by
two questions: 1, What would be the
effect upon this world if everybody
was a consistent Christian? 2, What
would be the effect upon this world if
everybody was a consisbent infidel?
The argument is a crushing one.
"Not every one that saith unto me,
Lord, Lord, shall enter into the king-
dom of heaven." He does not mean
that tee are not to call him Lord with
our lips, but that our lives are to fol-
low our words. "But he that doeth
the will of my Father who is in hea-
ven." Religion is not a dogma, nor
an emotion, but a service.
"Maley will say to me in that day."
the day of judgment. "Lord, Lord, did
we not prophesy by thy name." Teach
in Christ's name. "And by thy name
east out demons, and by thy name do
many mighty works?" For good rea-
sons, they had received power to work
miracles and thus aidin the spread of
the gospel, though theirs was a mere
surface profession of Christianity.
"And then -will I profess umbo them,
I never knew you." With what a ter-
rible shock will those stern and solemn
words conte to then! "Depart from
me,. ye that work iniquity." That will
be hell, to be absent from Jens,. This
is the reason for eternal punishment.
Men will be eternal sinners.
"Everyone therefore that heareth
these words of mine, and doeth then"
Hearing, as Christ would have us con-
tinually remember, is useless without
doing. "Shall be likened unto a wise
man, who built his house upon the
rock." A wise man can easily reach
a firm basis on which to rear his life.
"And the rain descended, and the
floods came and the winds blew, and
beat upon that house:" The narrative
emphasizes the separate elements of
the storm. "And it fell not: for it
was founded upon the rock." It is a
substantial structure.
"And every and that heareth these
words of mine, and doeth them not,"
Our Lord (verse 29) taught as one
having authority. "Shall be likened
unto a foolish nian, who built his
house upon the sand." The imagery
is from a mountain country where the
torrent beds, sometimes more than
half a mile in width in the plain below
the mountain, are dry in summer, and
present a level waste of sand and
stones.
"And the rain descended, and the
floods came, and the winds blew, and
smote upon that house." The testing
of character by trials and temptation
is for all, the weak and the strong, the
wise and the foolish alike. "And it
fell: and great was the fall thereof.'Great was the fall thereof does not
mean that the building was a large
one, but that the whole edifice fell, so
that the ruin was complete. The warn-
ing applies to small characters as well
as great.

neither favorites nor step -children."
