Because Dad had the butcher shop, we always built our meals around meat; we had it morning, noomn, and night. Lima beans were one of my Dad’s favorite vegetables, and this is his favorite way of doing them. The very best lima beans are the pole limas, next best are the Ford- hook; the baby lima, as far as I’m concerned, is hardly worth buying. Fried Liver 2 pounds liver, sliced 1 inch thick 1/2 cup flour 3 tablespoons butter Salt, freshly ground black pepper Dust both sides of the liver with flour. Heat the butter in a heavy skillet, add the liver slices, and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Fry until golden brown; turn over and fry. The faster liver is cooked, the tenderer it will be. If you like fried onions with your liver, cook them in the skillet first; then remove them and fry the liver. Dad’s Favorite Lima Beans 1 quart fresh or frozen lima beans 1/2 cup water 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon sugar 1 tablespoon butter 1 cup light cream 1 tablespoon Browned Butter To make browned butter melt 1/2 pound butter over medium-low heat in a heavy 1-quart saucepan (the butter has a tendency to boil over, so make sure you have a big enough pan). After it melts, stir occasionally until it starts to brown. Remove from heat before it burns. If it gets too dark, it will lose its flavor and become bitter; it should be just a rich nut brown. Put the lima beans in a saucepan with the water, salt, sugar, and butter. Boil under tender, not more than 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Add the cream and just heat through over low heat. Put in a serving dish with the browned butter on top. Lemon Meringue Pie 2 cups water 4 tablespoons cornstarch 1 cup sugar 3 eggs, separated Grated rind and juice of 2 lemons 1 tablespoon butter 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 baked 9-inch pie shell 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar 4 tablespoons sugar Mix 1/2 cup of water with the cornstarch to make a thin paste. Put the 1 cup sugar and remaining water in a pan and bring to a boil. Add the cornstarch paste and cook until mixture begins to thicken, stirring. Transfer mixture to a double boiler and cook over hot water for 15 minutes; then pour some of the mixture over the 3 egg yolks, which have been slightly beaten in a bowl. Stir this into the mixture in the top of the double boiler and cook 1 minute. Add lemon rind and juice, butter, and salt. Blend well. Cool mixture and pour into the baked pie shell. Beat the egg with the cream of tartar to the soft-peak stage. Gradually beat in the 4 tablespoons sugar and continue beating until stiff and glossy. Pile this meringue lightly over the pie filling and bake in a 350 jegree oven until meringue. is golden brown. October 27, 1976 Good News Club Good News Club has Schirmer.
