up the meat; allow 1|- pints of cold water to each pound, put in a
stewpan, bring very slowly nearly up to the boil, and then simmer
gently, closely covered all the morning — say for 4 or 5 hours. Break
up 2 oz. of macaroni for each pound of meat, and add it to the stew
about 40 minutes before serving. Season with pepper and salt and a
spoonful of chopped parsley✪ Hough and Macaroni, and serve with a good dish of potatoes.
Tire macaroni looks much better if boiled apart and added to the stew
at the last moment, but it does not absorb the gravy so well, nor is
the result quite so satisfactory.
Houg'h for the Children’s Dinner.
Slice the hough rather thickly, and lay it in a pie-dish, with a
clove or two ; cover the meat with a medium-sized Spanish onion, cut
in slices ; pour in enough water to cover the meat✪ Hough for the Children’s Dinner ; place a plate or
old ashet on the top so as to cover closely, and bake in a moderate
oven for 4 hours. Thicken the gravy, and season with pepper and
salt. . Serve with a wall of mashed potatoes.
Houg:h, stewed (Shin of Beef).
This is more economical than stewed steak, is quite as nice, and
contains more “staying” properties. Cut up your meat ; dust it lightly
with flour ; put it into a stewpan with a good lump of dripping ; and
shake briskly over a good heat till the meat is bmwned ; do this as
quickly as possible, so as not to harden the meat. Then add cold
water — a pint for every pound ; a peeled onion, stuck with a clove or
two ; and a sprig of pai'sley, a bay leaf, some herbs, and a bit of lemon
peel, all tied in a piece of muslin. Simmer slowly for 3 hour's.
Meanwhile, out up some onion, turnip, and carrot into dice ; allow 1 or
2 breakfastcupfuls of each (according to taste and circumstances) to
each pound of hough. If you have the time, fry these lightly in a pan
with a piece of dripping — it greatly improves their flavour. About
] hour before you wish to serve 3Kiur stew, add the vegetables to it,
and slightly increase the heat, but don’t boil. Then at the last, stir
in a good tablespoonful of ketchup or Worcester sauce✪ Hough, Stewed (Shin of Beef), and, with a
good dish of potatoes, you will have a dinner “fit for a king,” which
gives the maximum of nutriment at the minimum of cost.

2 Mui>ton Chops. 1 Sheep’s Kidney, 1 Onion, Potatoes, cut in rather thin
slices, 1 small spoonful Worcester Sauce, and a dessertspoonful Dripping

enough to stand the oven, and rather deep. Then a layer of chops
and kidney cut in pieces. Fill up with potatoes and onion out in
pieces, with sauce, and a little water. Cover with greased paper;
