How to Use Eggs in Lenten Season By BIDDY BYE. Eggs are rich in protein, the mater- fal required to build and repair the body. Children require this building material, therefore mothers who give careful attention to child feeding are careful to provide eggs several times a week, even when their price is high. How to get uniform results in cook- ing eggs, how to tell when an egg is “soft” or “medium” is often a diffi- cult matter. The following method, suggested by experts belonging to the University of Illinois, is considered reliable. : Use @ graniteware stewpan of one- quart capacity, put in one pint of water and heat over a gas flame. When the water boils hard, turn off the gas and put in one egg taken from the refrigerator. Cover the pan and let the egg remain undisturbed for six minutes. It will he what is known as soft boiled. For a “medi- um” boiled egg, let it remain in the water eight minutes. Eggs Spanish Style. Mix a little melted butter with boil- ed rice and spread on a well butter- ed baking dish. Arrange slices of hard boiled eggs on top of the rice, cover with tomato sauce, and bake 10 minutes. E Cupped Eggs. Butter individual baking dishes or custard cups. Put two tablespoonfuls of cream into each, then the yolk and white of a fresh egg. Season with pepper and salt. Set the cups in & pan of boiling water, place in a very hot oven, and steam until the eggs are set. e Baked Omelet. Soak one cupful bread crumbs in one cupful milk. Beat up the yolks of three eggs, and stir into the bread and milk. Season with salt, add the well-beaten whites of the eggs, turn into a well buttered baking dish and bake 20 minutes. Potato Omelet, Use cold mashed potatoes for this dish. Mix one cupful of the potato with one cupful milk, and one table- spoonful flour. Beat until smooth, add the beaten yolks of three eggs, with seasonings of salt, pepper and butter, then add the beaten whites of the eggs. Have a frying pan hot and well buttered, turn in the egg mix- ture, brown on one side, then turn and brown on the other. Garnish with parsley and serve with triangles of toast. Zohnson’s for hosiery.
