16 EDITH. ADAMS’ .12ta ANNUAL, PRIZE COOK BOOK JUGGED VENISON Ls} For this dish the venison to be used can be breast, shoulder, or any of the less tender cuts. The meat should not have hung too long. Prepare the day before by cutting off the pieces of meat required for the number of people to be served. Allow one .small chop for each person. Cut the meat into small chops about 1 inch thick, and about 4 or 5 inches long with no, bone. Place this. away in a cool place until wanted. Take the trimmings and bones and put in a stewpan with any remnants of bacon or ham; 2 or 3 onions and salt and pepper and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil and simmer for 3 or 4 hours. Then strain and put away to set and allow the fat to be removed. Cooking the meat must start several hours before it is required for a long, slow cooking is necessary to bring out the real . flavor of the meat. Put in a pan about 4 lb. of butter, peel and slice two medium sized onions and fry to a delicate brown. Then take out and keep hot. Now take the pieces of meat and wipe well with a damp cloth, and dip in bread crumbs flavored with salt and pepper, and fry in the butter to a delicate brown on both sides. Now take the dish to be used which should be a casserole or beanpot which can be sent to the table and into it put the liquor which was obtained from the bones, having thickened this with flour to make a very thick gravy. Place the chops in the bottom, then a layer of onions, and continue until the dish is full, allowing room for a good covering of gravy last. Cover and cook in a very slow oven for 3 to 4 hours or until meat is tender; add a small glass of port wine just before dish- ing up. Serve forcemeat balls, crisp bacon and red currant jelly with this dish. Forcemeat balls are made by chopping up % lb. of beef suet, and a little lemon peel and parsley together. Mix with a bowl full of bread crumbs and salt and pepper. Moisten with the yolks of 2 eggs, and a few drops of lemon juice. Roll in flour and fry crisp. Mrs. H. W. Stones, Burton, B.

FRICASSEED RABBIT Rabbit should be drawn directly after being killed and should: not be skinned until ready for use. 1 rabbit 1 onion 14 cup rice % tin tomatoes Cut rabbit up and dip in flour, place in well greased frying pan. Add salt and pepper, fry until golden brown.on each side. Now place in stewing pan, cover and place at back of stove and let simmer with just enough water so meat doesn’t burn. Now put in frying pan 2 tablespoons butter, rice, onion, and stir until rice is nicely brown, Add tomatoes, salt, pepper, and a little sage and hot water enough to make a gravy. Cook for a few minutes then pour over meat and let simmer until meat is tender. “Grouse (when in season) is very good cooked the same way because if an old one, you can let simmer until meat is tender. The onion takes away any wild toste and when I serve rabbit this way, the family always comes back for a second helping.” * yay J. N. McKinnon, Copper Mountain,
