Ingredients
- four pounds of beef
- 1 pound of its substance
- 42 hints on washing
Directions
1
The following table shows how much is wasted in some of the different ways of cooking :
2
Four pounds of beef, in boiling or stewing, wastes about 1 pound of its substance ; but you have it all in the broth or gravy, if you have kept the pot closely covered.
3
In baking 1£ pounds is almost entirely lost, unless you have plenty of vegetables in the dripping-pan to absorb and preserve it.
4
In roasting before the fire you lose nearly 1J pounds. Do not think you save the waste in the shape of dripping. It is poor economy to buy fat at the price of meat merely for the pleasure of frying it out.
