PAGE FOUR LA CONCHA HOTEL SAVES WASTE FATS EVERY SPOONFUL HELPS IN CONSERVATION PRO- GRAM NOW IN EFFECT Saving waste fats for explo- sives and other war supplies is @ mass production proposition wth the «Hotel La’ Concha, ac- cording to ‘Charles M. Salas, manager of the hostelry, which every week contributes 20 pounds of grease to be processed for its glycerine content. While one reason for the large accumulation is the number of meals served in the hotel’s pub lic dining room, a more import- ant factor is the thoroughness with which the culinary staff salvages every bit of fat not act- ually consumed in cooking. “Home cooks would have more fat to bring to their meat deal- ers if they followed the example of hotels like the La Concha,” said Mr. Salas. ‘-Our chef, Con- stantino Diaz, exerts constant viglance to see that every scrap of fat, and every drop of drip- pings from roasts and_ broiled meats are properly conserved. We have a large steam boiler which is always in operation, in- to which every type and variety of fat or fatty tissue is plunged. Every so often the hot, liquid dat is drawn off and deposited in, cans.” ») Efficient kitchen management requires that every bit of food be used in some fashion, Mr. Salas declared. “When our ho- tel butcher cuts up meat,” he said, “all unneeded fat and tis- sue is put into the steam boiler and and rendered on the spot. After roasts or steaks or chops have been cooked, the inedible fatty portions are trimmed off before serving—and these waste portions also are melted in the kettle. Chicken fat is kept sep- arate, to be used for dee-frying. When we have exhautsed its usefulness for that ‘purpose, it) also finds its way into the steam kettle. All bones are cooked for soup stock. The clear fat which forms at the top as the stock cools is taken off and saved. “Through these methods the Hotel La Concha not only aids the war effort by providing raw material for glycerine used in explosives and gunpowder, in recoil mechanisms of big field guns, in depth charge release gears and for medical supplies, but it also keeps down the cost of dining out. Every dollar re- ceived by the hotel for the waste cooking fats turned in is applied against our kitchen overhead, so the saving is reflected in the prices charged for food. In a smaller way, the same thing is true in the home. Every pound of waste fat you bring to your | meat dealer pares a few cents) from your budget. The more thoroughly you conserve, the more you will save. And every spoonful you save helps Ameri- can boys on the battlefront.” LIEUT.-COMDR. (Continued from Page One) | gold aboard..

G. Stitts, chief of the.dairy and poultry branch of the-Food Distribution Administra- tion,; of ywhich Secretary Claude ;, Wiekard of the: United States De- partment of - Agriculture is the head. ; Shortage ‘of tin and shortage of sugar are ‘the chief‘reasons for'the reduced supply of condensed: milk, 43 per cent of which is composed of sugar. After explaining that condition, Mr. Stitts adds that production for home consumption is further decreased by “heavy sales to the armed forces and lend-lease.” Mr. Stitts continues: “It is our understanding that production is gradually increasing, and probably the company will have an increased quantity for sale shortly. This, of course, is} | | dependent upon their getting in-} creased supplies of tin and sugar.” Senator Claude Pepper, ‘Con- gressman Pat Cannon and Con- gressman-at-large Lex Green are trying to have the supply of con- densed milk for Key West in- creased. They have taken ‘ip thé matter both with the OPA’ahd the FDA, but they foind that! the plained by Mr. Stitts. OF Vast quantities of condensed milk have been sent to North Ag- rica, where the American invasion} forces found the populations in dire need of food, due to the Axis forces commandeering foodstuffs and stripping the country of prac- tically all of its cattle, a practice that was abruptly stopped when the Americans and British landed in Morocco, Algeria and the west- ern strip of Tunisia.
