THE DATIA EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, AUGUST 31, 18G6.
Respecting the Boiling of Fat with VJgotables.
Etc. It may t objected that such a process
would render the articles prca y and lnt'pcstl
ble. A greater mistake cannot be made than Is
this supposition. If fat were boiled with greens,
nothing could be worse: there is too much oil
in them already, for which the soda is ued to
extract Into the water, and which, if retained in
tho greens, renders them positively unwhole
some. Onions, carrots, turnips, artichokes, and
celery Lave no oil in their coropoxMon, but
thev require the softest of water to boil thorn in.
Boda would turn them black, and there is
nothing so clean as a piece of dripping or lat olf
meat to have tne aesirea ciieci. inu infiui
do not absorb it, nor do they appear greasy, or
tr by anv accident Ihey do so, a little boiling
water oo'ured over them will take It away. Per
haps there is no greater waste in a vegetable
than in the article of turnip. If they arc cut
and boiled as before described one bunch of
citht or ten roots will fill two vegetable dishes,
and suflice for cieht persons; but if done in the
ominary method, by water nnd over-boiliusr,
two bunches will bo needed. By ad ling milk
instead of butter, the turnips are mi do creamy
and richer, and are not so apt to give indiges
tion as when butter is used with them.
Vegetables to be used lor soup should never
be boiled In it, but be properly prepared before
hand, so as for each to retain its own flavor.
Only thus cooked are they digestible.
V. Sweets mid Pantry.
For good pies and puddings use always double
the quantity of Hour to that of fat 1 pound of
flour to hair a pound of lat, whether butter,
dripping, bacon fat, or lard. To make short
crust, rub all the fat into the Hour, add but
little water to it, to keep it tolerably dry; that
is, it must be crumbling when tumd out of the
iiiiiiitr-bowl. Roll it out and roll it up again
three times; then roll it out, place the top of
the pic-di'-h upon it, and cut round it for the
cover, which set on one side. Fold up the
pieces into one, nnd roll it out lencthways in a
Ktiln. then cut it down the centre, buftjr the
edges of the dish, and line them with thee
strips, letting the straignt enpe conic ai ine
cdpe of the dish. With a paste brush wet the
edpe of the paste: pile the dish w ith fruit; put in
a little water and sufficient 6ugnr. Place on the
cover see that the edges are closely joined.
Make no hole in the centre, but put tne tart
into n very hot oven for a quarter of an hour;
then the paste will have risen, and tne oven-
door may be opened, to permit the baking to go
on slowly.
Flaky paste is made wiiu tne same proportions
of fat aud Hour. One-third only is rubbed in
the Hour; then it is mixed w ith a little water,
so that it Is crumbling when turned out Irom
the uiixine-bowl. ltoll it out; put tu littl
pinches halt of the fat or butter, all over; dredge
it lightly wiiu Hour, icon it up, anci repeat tne
same process again: then roll it out to tne stiape
and Eio required.
1'astry must net ne uanuieci; ine Kinie or
spoon and hnger-tips are suiiieieut, alter ruo

If it be made too wet, it will oe as Heavy as it
much handled.
in pudding made with suet, the latter should
be chopped very tine, and always in weight half
the quantity of'the flour used, and the puddiu
bo boiled never less than two hours. It will
then be wholesome and light.
Halt an ounce ot sugar will sweeten half a

One large egp will suflice to make a custard of
half a pint ot "milk.
Jiail an ounce oi ncc grounu or wuoic,

To know what sugar, etc-., must oc given out
for milk puddings, measure the dish to know
what quantity it holds a quart dish, holding
by measure lour hall-pints of milK, will take for
a naked custard tour egg, two ounces oi sugar,

add the milk by degrees. Corn flour and arrow
root puddings want no eggs; the former is bet

like starch, should be set with boiling milk.
WIioIp rice requires no cecs; it is to be wasiied

All milk puddings should have two or three
pinches of butter on the tp, to prevent the
milk irom burning.
Wash currants and raisins in warm water, and
let them dry, so that they will not stick to
gether, belore using.
Sultana raisins are better for all puddings
than any other kind. The raisins which are
stoned generally have the richest part taken out
with the stones, leaving un indigestible mass of
skins to be eaten. Only remember that what
ever quantity of Sultana raisins are used, the
one-half must be chopped before using.
Currants frequently disagree with weak diges
tions, aud should be sparingly if ever eaten.
The oil contained in lemon or orange, and
spicef, seldom digests readily.
Kggs are not. needed in fritters, neither are
they in Christmas plum puddings.

Take a small teacup, till it a quarter full with
batter, put in two or three piece? of apple,
then pour it per.tly into a clean frying-pan half
lull of boiling lard, bacon tat, or dripping; a
fritter should not be turned, the boiling f.it
should cover it and make it brown. When it is
so, remove it w ith a perforated ege-drainer on

in tepid water a pound and a bait ot raisins, and
stone them, or two pouuds of Sultana raisins,

and well mi tin; then a pound of well-washed
enrranls. and a ciuaiter of a pound of candied
peel cut iuto lumps, not slices. Havimr mixed
all this together well, make the whole sutheiently
moist with a little ale; well butter one or more
lurce basins: well press the mixturo into the
bottom of eaeh (or they will not turn out In good
shape), and when filled to a trille above the
brim of tho basin, spread some flour on the top,
aud tie the basin down with a well-wetted cloth;
place the pudding in boiling water, let it
boil up rapidly, and so continue for four hours;
then - it un. remove the cloth, but do nut
turu it out of the bastu. The next day, or when
wanted lor use. nut tu4 nuddin? to warm with
tho hnain still nn. tortwo hours, in a moderately
warm ovpn. then take it out. turu it from the1
basin on to the dish in which it is to bo sent to
table. With the handle of a teaspoon or the
blade of a fruit-kuite. make incisious In different
parts of the pudding, aud pour on brandy or
rum, then silt powdered sugar over. It Is obvious
that this nuddlner nnust bt) made tho day belore
it is required for use, and it is much better tor
being so. FgRS are riot necessary to eive either
richness or flavor, or to "bind the pud iinar;" the
ale und the flour will do that. Kggs render tho
iiihsb thoroughly indigestible; but tney niusi
still be had. and we aam repeat that tb-y are
not needed, eight eggs, well beaten and strained,
can lie used Instead of be ale. Great care is
nece'sary in all puddings of the kind, not to
tuke tbem too wet, or they will bo heavy; and
to thoroughly mix the ingredients separately.
Exquisitely Delicious Ittince Has. Take a pound
ot the undressed under cut of a sirloin of beef,
mince it very flne indeed, put it into a pie-dish,
cover it with a flat dish, and put it into a mode
rate hot oven till it is cooked; drain off tho
latfrcniit thoroughly, and n.ix in two ounces
of fresh butter and half an ounce ot finely-ground
allspice; four large apples pared, cored, and
chopucd very fiiic, and mixed in; half a pound
cd fcultana raisins washed aud chopped tine, and
mixed In: half a pound of currants well washed;
three tablespoonsiul of moist sugar: three
ounces of candied orange peel (not lemon),
chopped rather fine. Mix the whole of these
ingredients well together: then place a half
pouud preserve jar of raspberry Jain in boiling
water, but w ithout letting pnv water enter, and
without uncovering the jar, till the jam is dis
solved; then strain the jam over the ingredients,
taking care not to let the slightest portion of
the seeds escape; throw these latter away, then
mix the whole thoioughly. An excellent and
simple raste for these or any other pies is thus
made: Weigh a pound of flour, nnd half a
pound of sweet butter oi lard; rub the hall of
the lard into the flour; aud after this, the hands
musl not touch it. The whole process must now
be continued with a spoon, a knife, and tho tips
ot tbenngers. Wow slightly wet the Hour.and mix
it with a spoon; the paste must be very dry, or
it will be heavy; now roll it in a long strip; with
the point of the knilo place half ot the lard or
butter in tiny bits, over the whole: silt a little
flour over, w'ifh the point of the knife lold the
paste over in narrow folds, and roll it out again
tho same way. Never turn the paste round.
With the remainder of the lard, act precisely
the same again; alter this second rolling fold it
the 6anie wav aga!n. anil roll it to a sufficient
thiekncfs for the covers of pies; then turning
the paifv pans downwards on the paste, but
without pressure, cut the paste round to the
size: the remainder of the paste roll out and
line the nattv pans: then fill them with the
mince meat; put on the covers witaotit wetting
the edges, and bake them In a very quick oven
for a few minutes, or as long as necessary; but
the Quicker the better, so that thev ar sufli
cientiv rooked. When the pies aie nearly cold,
lilt the corner of each, and pour over the mince
a teaspoontul of brandy. These w ill keep good
for three weeks. The peculiarity of these pies
is, that no suet is used, wnicn agrees wun but
few people, aud that the juico ol the raspberries
pives them an indescribable but delicious navor,
