The Farmer's Sunday Dinner.
Roast of beef, cooked in casserole
with apples and bacon, sweet potatoeS,
stewed tomatoes, pickles, bread. and
butter, cream nut pie, currant jelly,
cheese/ acrd coffee.
. This menu is planned with the ielea
, .
of making the preparation of the Sun-
day dinner a really easy matter and,
at the same time, giving the farmer
and his helpers the hearty and appet-
izing food. which outdoor workers re-
quire. A boned rib roast of beef is
seared in slrippings, or its own fat,
and partly roasted! on Saturday, at a
time whicTi is `most convenient for
the housewife. Tomatoes are cooked
and seasoned, to be reheated. .A 'thick,
boiled 'cream for the pie is prepared
in a double boiler (also en Saturday),
and a *pie -shell is baked in a deep,
,
oven -glass pie dish. The dough for
the shell may have been left aver from
a former baking, and kept in a cold
place until used.'
On. Sunday mopping the roast is
placed in .a casserole arid dredged
with browned_ flouttprepared for this
purpose. 'Peeled /sweet potatoes are
placed. with the roast, and next to the
potatoes are placed apples, which are
somewhat tart. The apples should be
cored, then stuffed with rens of thin-
ly sliced bacon. The casserole is then
placed in. a moderate oven where the
food will cook slowly while the family
attends church. On their return from
church, the casserole is placed; in 'the
heating oven over the top of the
range, leaving the oven for'the COM-
pletien of the pie. The vessel con-
taining the tomatoes is -placetsl over
the fire, for reheating.
