MUD-JACK USED ON STATE HIGHWAYS AS PART OF MAINTENANCE PROGRAM I s : Mud Highway

Ciocfct/v prepared by Daily Democrat—Betty Crocker Home Service Depsrtment CORN MEAL TREATS Corn meal and com bread at once suggest the aunav south bs •st.-- it's there thst such celebrated foods as crackling oread, spoon bread and corn pone- were bora Hut up in New England, they claim he distinction of having given us “Johnny Cake"- mils from Phils delphia conies that old-time favorite. “Seraapla". I could go on and on enumerating celebrated com meal treats. But right now I'm going to confine myself to P‘*ing vow the recipes for two of tht-! old-time favorites that maks debtieua luaaheon or supper dishes. Take Spoon Bread -or "Batter Bread" as it is sometimes esdUd down South. Served hot with plenty of butter, it’s a real treat Here is the recipe; Spoon Bread I'e cops milk S tsp. salt S cup corn meal (white or lAs tsp. baking powder yell , * 1 tbsp, better 2 eggs Stir com meal into 1 cup of the milk and let rt come to a bod, making a mush. Stir constantly to prevent lumping. Then add remaining milk. w< II beaten egg*. salt, baking powder and melted butter, beating thoroughly with rotary egg beater. Pour into 8-inch square pan and Lake 20 to 25 minutes in a moderately hot evera, 400' F. This makes •> servings Once you've lasted it. yvuTi understand why this hot Spu'-u Bread has a place of honor va the following elegant Old Virginia Company Supper Menu: Scalloped Oysters nr Fried Oysters or Stewed Chicken Old Virginia Ham. Cold and Sliced Wafer Thin Hot Beaten Biscuits Hot Sally Lunn Hot Spoon Bread Stuffed Mangoes Brandied Peaches iJamnitt Plum Preserves Quince Jelly Old Time Sea Moss Blanc Mange OM Virginia Goober Cake Coffee And then for a coxy family supper, hot Fried Scrapple with plen'y of butter makes a welcome and satisfying mam dish As one of the girls in our testing kitchen remarked when she sampled it—“ You'd neve- dream you were eating anything that even remotely resembles corn meal mush'" Os course, there are some who might resent this— I, .i aft* r all. tin r. is much that caa be said in favor of fried corn meal mush. But hers is the recipe for Scrapple 2 lb. Iran boneless pork | yellow) 3 qt. water U t»P- pepper 2'v tsp. salt ' W tsp. savory and sage muted 1H rups corn meal (white or ■ C- -k pork in water with salt uatd very tender, (about Z hours!. Shred thr pork in small pieces end add em-ugh mere liquid to Brake 1 qt meat stock. Return pork to stock and bring slowly to a boil. A-ld the corn meal very slowly (to prevent lumpmg) to the boiling liquid ami cook 20 minutes, stirring constantly, until w is a stiff mush. Add the pepper and savory mixture, and mors salt if desired Pour into two buttered bread loaf pans (or 1 large loaf pan) and chill. SCul in slices <s inch thick, roll in eora meal, and fry in butter or baeon driupings until golden brown. Serve hot with butter. However, for a good all-around reeipe yon enn bake In a aouare jan and slice into generous squafos- et bake in the special “corn stick pans” that are shaped like ears of corn -or that you can even co- -k in a skillet as griddle cakes, I know of nothing better than our Southern 4'orn Cake recipe. I'm sorry there isn’t space to give it to you here now, but I will be glad to send it to any one of you who would like it Send your request to me, Betty Crocker, in ears of this newspaper. . .
