Y. Foreword You can think immediately of some especial dish of your Mother's. No doubt you have one or more of your own which your family and friends relish with unusually keen delight. Just so in almost every community, there are a few housekeepers noted for some particularly fine dish, the Recipe for which becomes eagerly sought after. It has been to bring together the very best of many of these, and to show the wide range of usefulness of the "SAVORY" Double Boiler and "SAVORY" Roaster that our national Recipe Contests have been held. Almost 10,000 excellent recipes have thus come to us. From this vast number, those in this book were selected with particular regard to their economy and ease of preparation. That these have won cash prizes expresses but a small part of their merit. Each represents a practical housekeeper's best. This explains the enjoyable' 'home flavor" that you will note throughout this Book. _ By presenting each Recipe in practically the same form in which it was submitted ~ and by giving the author's name in each case, this feature has been carefully preserved. Finally, by giving in one book, Recipes for both the "SAVORY" Double Boiler ana "SAVORY" Roaster, this becomes a convenient reference to the wide range of dishes that are better and more deliciously prepared in these two kitchen necessities. 3 Part I "A Better Way To Cook Food" The many foods that require long cooking in an even heat and that are apt to become scorched, if not watched, are better cooked by steam. Steam is, of course, much hotter than water and when it is brought directly in contact with the food, its moist uniform heat cooks this much more evenly, thoroughly and altogether better. Of "Steaming as a Method of Cooking Food," Mrs. Rorer says, "This is an admirable method of cooking ~ddings, fruit cakes and things requiring long moist heat. While steaming requires a little longer time than boiling, potatoes, rice, peas, beans, corn, squash, cucumbers and pumpkins may as well be better cooked in this way." Together with this recognized value of steam cooking, the problem has been to develop a cooking utensil that would not only cook by steam but that would return the condensed water to the Water Pan. This was achieved in the "SAVORY"- The One Improvement, and a Great One, in Double Boilers With it there is no need for constant stirring or watching. It brings out fully the natural flavor of the food and by conserving all of this, it "cooks the goodness in"-making things taste better. The "SAVORY" Double Boiler is thus a companion to the celebrated "SAVORY" Roaster and embodies scientific principles applied to double boiler cooking. The difference between the "SAVORY" and the ordinary double boiler is that in the latter the food pan simply extends Fig. 1-The white arrows show how the down into the steam enters the Food Pan; the black arrows how hot water and the condensed water returns to the Water Pan. aU the cooking is done by the heat which is able to pass from the water through the lower part of the food pan to the food. In the "SAVORY," the 4 SAVORY Prize Recipe Book 5 food pan is completely surrounded by steam (which is hotter than water) and which by continually circulating over the actual contents of the food pan thoroughly and evenly cooks it, making it tender and digestible. This steam cooking action of the "SAVORY" is made possible by the unique arrangement of its ._ three parts. The Food Pan fits over the rim of the Water Pan. Holes near the top of the Food Pan admit steam directly into it. Drain holes in the rim of this pan permit the condensed steam from the cover to drip back into the Water Pan, thus retaining it for continued boiling. The cover fits either pan separately. The "SAVORY" Double Boiler is made both in Enameled Ware and in Tin. It is lOU" in diameter, the Food Pan being 3" deep and the Water Pan 4U" deep. An extra deep design has Fig. 2.-Showing the three separate parts of the same diam- the "SAVORY" Double Boiler. eter but with pans 4Ys" and 6" deep respectively. The shape of this most practical device is thus such that a wide variety of foods, for every meal in the day may be cooked to advantage in it. Where a saving of time and fuel is desired, in the extra deep "SAVORY" Double Boilers one vegetable, such as potatoes, onions, turnips or carrots, may be boiled in the Water Pan and another vegetable or pudding or fruit, steamed at the time in the food pan. There will be no mixing of flavors. Cooked fruits, cereals, eggs, fish and meats, vegetables, brown bread, salad dressing, puddings, cakes and other desserts are among those for which Prize Recipes follow. u A Dinner on One Burner for Two or Three: Two veal tongues cleaned and put in food pan ... of the 'SAVORY' Double Boiler, at one side a pint of peas, also a large cup or mold with a steamed pudding, in space put potatoes. All will be cooked in one hour. There will be no shrinkage, nor loss of flavor, no danger of burning and the entire dinner will be much more wholesome. " -Mrs. T. B.

We should disabuse our minds of the idea that it is not fashionable to place the cheaper cuts of meat on ou·r tables. The meat bills of the highest salaried chefs of the wealthiest families are much smaller in proportion than the average bill of the average American cook-which shows that it is · not so much the price paid for meat as it is the way in which it is prepared. At the Outset Do you know?- That meat and poultry supply 16 per cent. of the total food material consumed in the United States. That the cheaper cuts of meat contain practically the same food value-both as to nutrition and digestion-as the expensive cuts. That the percentage of protein, which is the body building material, varies but little in the different kinds and cuts of meat, not enough in fact to say that one kind of meat has more food value than another. The fat portion of bacon or salt pork is an exception however, and runs lower in protein. What Therefore is the Difference Between the Cheaper and More Expensive Cuts? The chief difference between the cheaper and more expensive cuts of meat is not so much in their nutritive value as in their texture and flavor. Under the backbone in the hind quarter is the place from which the mo$t tender meat comes. This is usually called the tenderloin. Sometimes in beef and also in pork it is taken out whole and sometimes it is left to be cut up with the rest of the loin. · In old animals and in those parts of the body where there has been much muscular action, the neck and the legs, for example, the muscle fibers are tough and hard. But there is another point which 24 SAVORY Prize Recipe Book 25 is of even greater importance than this. The fibers of all muscles are bound together by a thin membrane known as connective tissue. This membrane, if heated in water or steam, is converted into gelatin. The process goes quickly if the meat is young and tender; more slowly if it is tough. This connective tissue is soluble in vinegar, so tough meat may be made more tender by soaking it in vinegar, or vinegar and water. In this way is made sour beef or "sauer fleisch" a palatable German dish. Flavor in meat depends mainly on certain nitrogenous substances, which are called "extractives". The quality of the extractives and the resulting flavor of the meat vary with the condition of the animal and in different parts of its body. They are usually considered better developed in older than in very young animals. Many persons suppose that extractives or the flavor they cause are best in the most expensive cuts of meat. In reality, cuts on the side of beef are often of better flavor than the tender cuts. The extractives or flavor in meat contain no nutritive value but are important because they excite the digestive organs to action. It is this quality which justifies the taking of soup at the beginning of a meal and the giving of broths, meat extracts and similar preparations to invalids. We recommend that you read the pamphlet entitled "Economical Use of Meat in the Home", issued by The Agricultural Derartment of the United States Government. Their experiments show that in many families of fairly good income, table conditions are far from satisfactory. In numbers of instances expensive cuts of meat were so badly cooked that it was hardly possible to eat them. Cheaper cuts are not only more economical but much more satisfactory. Fig. 3-Showlng the Blued Steel "SAVORY': Roaster. Seamless Sanitary Self-basting Self- browning 26 SAVORY Prize Recipe Book Explanation of the Differen\ Cuts of Meat Fig, 4-Diagram illustrating the Different cuts of Beef Together with their average Relative Weights and Prices. Round and Rump--The rump is the fleshy portion over the thigh. After it is cut off, the round extends on down to the shank, having only one bone near the center. The round of beef is 92 per cent. meat and 8 per cent. bone. Loin-The loin of beef is sub-divided into porterhouse or short cuts, T-hone and sirloin. The porterhouse consists of the first five or six steaks from the small end next to the ribs. Next to this comes the T-hone steaks, regarded by many as the very choicest part of the loin. The last six of eight steaks next to the round are known as the sirloin. The tenderloin is the inside portion of lean meat near the rib end of the loin. As a rule the tenderloin is only cut from the cheaper carcasses and the balance of the loin is used for canning in such cases. Where the tenderloin is cut from the choice carcass, a fancy price is charged for it, as it seriously injures the value of the rest of the loin. Sirloin Ends-In some markets the ends of the sirloin and T-hone steaks, which run down into the flank, are cut off at the point where the flesh widens and are sold separately. These ends are coarser than the loin meat, but properly cooked are as good as any part of the animal. Riba-This section consists of the first seyen ribs and is mostly used for roasts. The cuts nearest the loin are considered the choicest and sell for the most money. Next to the chuck the meat is deeper and rather coarser. The average rib roast of beef is 79 per cent. meat and 21 per cent. bone. Chuck-The lower eight or ten inches of that portion marked chuck is known to the trade as the "clod." This lies just above the brisket and extends up to the lower portion of the neck. This is cut mostly for pot roasts and contains much lean meat. Most of the chuck is cut into steaks the best portions being on the end nearest to the ribs. The portion next to the neck usually sells for pot roast or boiling. SA VOR Y Prize Recipe Book 27 Neck-This part usually sells with a part of the chuck and is fit mostly for boiling. It is fleshy but coarse. Plat-The plate is the lower portion of the carcass below the ribs, taking in the covering of the belly. It is mostly used for boiling but contains some good meat. Briaket-This takes in the portion between the shank and the clod, or lower part of the chuck. It is a very fleshy piece with some heavy bone, but makes fine pot roast or boiling meat. Flank-A section of lean meat overlies the flank which is stripped off and is known as the flank steak, and is much sought after. The balance of the flank is mostly used for sausage and hamburger, but can be boiled. Sbtmk-That portion of the shank from the knee or heel, to the cut above, is fleshy, though coarse, and is mostly used for boiling. The lower part is mostly bone and sinew and is for soup and boiling. In the forelegs this is called the shin. What to Look For When Buying Meat The following six simple rule~ should be borne in mind in buying meat: 1. Remember first that the taste of meat when served, lies most in the preparation it has previously received. A piece of beef from a cut that will cost four to ten cents per pound can be made as attractive, appetizing and nutritious as a cut from the loin that will cost from twenty-five to thirty-five cents per pound. 2. Insist upon seeing the carcass from which the meat is to be cut. See that it carries the stamp "U. S. Inspected and Passed," which is a guarantee from the government that the meat is healthy. 3. A prime piece of meat will not only carry an outside covering of fat, but all through the lean meat will be small specks of fat, giving it a marbled appearance. With a little experience anyone can tell good meat from poor. 4. Remember that some cuts of meat, often the cheaper ones, are 5 per cent. bone and 95 per cent. meat while others, often the most expensive ones are 30 per cent. bone and 70 per cent. meat. 5. Always ask your butcher for any bones he may cut out of your meat. There's lots of nutritious value in them for soups. You have paid for them and you should have them. 6. Do not have the bone cut out of a roast. It cooks better and is sweeter with the bone left in. The bone also helps to hold the sap in the meat. 28 SAVORY Prize Recipe Book Four Rules for Cooking Meat 1. In cooking beef remember that the sap or juice of the beef is one of the most important parts of the meat. It should be so cooked as to retain these juices. This is best done, in the case of a steak, by searing on the outside. In broiling a steak, place close to the fire at first, turning frequently until the outside is seared brown. Then so place it that it can cook slowly until done. Remember that rare meat does not mean raw meat. Meat cooked rare has a bright pink appearance. If not cooked it will have a bluish purple color. When beef is rare it is cooked in its own sap. 2. Beef should not be fried in grease. For convenience it may be cooked upon a hot frying pan or skillet. In this case use no grease and turn the steak over two or three times to sear the outside and retain its sap. Never cook beef in boiling grease. 3. In roasting beef have the oven very hot before putting it in. This will sear the outside and seal in the sap. Then lower the temperature of the oven slightly and let it roast until done to the point desired. If you use gas for fuel, have your oven very hot for the first fifteen minutes, then reduce the flame otherwise your meat will roast too quickly. 4. Pot roast should be par boiled and finished with very little water, and kept covered. A good plan is to first boil tender, then take off the water and finish by roasting in the oven An Improved Way for Cooking Fish The "SAVORY Roaster Fish Rack", a new auxiliary to the "SAVORY" Roaster that extends the already great usefulness of this celebrated device, brings the practical housekeeper an improved way of cooking fish. By means of this the fish is raised off from the bottom so1 that air circulates below as well as above it. This cooks the fish most deliciously and as all is enclosed in the air-tight Roaster, no odor of the cooking fish can escape. When finished, the fish is quickly and easily removed from the pan by means of the two side handles of the Fish Rack. Fig. 5-The "SAVORY Roaster Fish Rack."

The oper- full flavor from the Coffee, keeping ation becomes more ltfreefrOJ;nthegrounds. frequent until the gushes of water follow each other up the tube in quick succession. In ten minutes pumping, all of the water in the pot will have strained through the coffee from three to five times, extracting every bit of the rich coffee flavor without boiling and without any grounds or sediment. This gives you clear, fragrant coffee, of full strength. Not the bitter tasting liquid commonly known as "strong" coffee, but the deli- - cate, full flavored satisfying taste that delights every lover of good coffee. One housekeeper kept an accurate account for a few weeks of the cost of the eggs she saved by using the "SAVORY" Percolator (no eggs needecl). She found that in this item alone she had more than paid for her "SAVORY" Percolator, to say nothing of having used a less expensive coffee and having had a better beverage. SAVORY Prize Recipe Book 43 Directions-" Savory Coffee" Fill the pot of the Savory Percolator with hot water to the number of cups needed. (Not less than 3). Put into the Percolator basket 1 heaping teaspoonful of finely ground coffee (not pulverized) for each cup of water. (Use at least 4). Place Percolator standard and basket inside the pot, being sure that the base fits into the depression in the bottom. Allow the Percolator to pump from 6 to 10 minutes. With 10 minutes pumping these proportions will make coffee of as strong flavor as the average person cares to drink. The proportions may be changed to suit the taste. The Savory Percolator is working at its best when the water comes out of the tube in full, quick gushes. If a continuous stream of hot water and steam comes from the tube, it is an indication that the water is boiling and the flame should be reduced or the Percolator moved to a part of the stove that is not so hot. On oil, gas or gasoline stoves it is better to use a stove lid between the flame and the pot. You will find it impossible to get better coffee than can thus be made in the Savory Percolator and with this you will find it always possible to make the same delicious drink. The "SAVORY" Percolator saves one-third of the coffee You will find it a very real source of economy. With it you can make a better cup from 25c-lb. coffee than you can from 40c-lb. coffee made in the old way. And further, its first cost is only about half what people have been used to paying for Percolators. You profit in this by our facilities, for the Savory Coffee Percolator like the other "SAVORY" a r t i c1 e s b e a r s "T h e REPUBLIC METALWARE Co." imprint of high quality.

Y. Foreword You can think immediately of some especial dish of your Mother's. No doubt you have one or more of your own which your family and friends relish with unusually keen delight. Just so in almost every community, there are a few housekeepers noted for some particularly fine dish, the Recipe for which becomes eagerly sought after. It has been to bring together the very best of many of these, and to show the wide range of usefulness of the "SAVORY" Double Boiler and "SAVORY" Roaster that our national Recipe Contests have been held. Almost 10,000 excellent recipes have thus come to us. From this vast number, those in this book were selected with particular regard to their economy and ease of preparation. That these have won cash prizes expresses but a small part of their merit. Each represents a practical housekeeper's best. This explains the enjoyable' 'home flavor" that you will note throughout this Book. _ By presenting each Recipe in practically the same form in which it was submitted ~ and by giving the author's name in each case, this feature has been carefully preserved. Finally, by giving in one book, Recipes for both the "SAVORY" Double Boiler ana "SAVORY" Roaster, this becomes a convenient reference to the wide range of dishes that are better and more deliciously prepared in these two kitchen necessities. 3 Part I "A Better Way To Cook Food" The many foods that require long cooking in an even heat and that are apt to become scorched, if not watched, are better cooked by steam. Steam is, of course, much hotter than water and when it is brought directly in contact with the food, its moist uniform heat cooks this much more evenly, thoroughly and altogether better. Of "Steaming as a Method of Cooking Food," Mrs. Rorer says, "This is an admirable method of cooking ~ddings, fruit cakes and things requiring long moist heat. While steaming requires a little longer time than boiling, potatoes, rice, peas, beans, corn, squash, cucumbers and pumpkins may as well be better cooked in this way." Together with this recognized value of steam cooking, the problem has been to develop a cooking utensil that would not only cook by steam but that would return the condensed water to the Water Pan. This was achieved in the "SAVORY"- The One Improvement, and a Great One, in Double Boilers With it there is no need for constant stirring or watching. It brings out fully the natural flavor of the food and by conserving all of this, it "cooks the goodness in"-making things taste better. The "SAVORY" Double Boiler is thus a companion to the celebrated "SAVORY" Roaster and embodies scientific principles applied to double boiler cooking. The difference between the "SAVORY" and the ordinary double boiler is that in the latter the food pan simply extends Fig. 1-The white arrows show how the down into the steam enters the Food Pan; the black arrows how hot water and the condensed water returns to the Water Pan. aU the cooking is done by the heat which is able to pass from the water through the lower part of the food pan to the food. In the "SAVORY," the 4 SAVORY Prize Recipe Book 5 food pan is completely surrounded by steam (which is hotter than water) and which by continually circulating over the actual contents of the food pan thoroughly and evenly cooks it, making it tender and digestible. This steam cooking action of the "SAVORY" is made possible by the unique arrangement of its ._ three parts. The Food Pan fits over the rim of the Water Pan. Holes near the top of the Food Pan admit steam directly into it. Drain holes in the rim of this pan permit the condensed steam from the cover to drip back into the Water Pan, thus retaining it for continued boiling. The cover fits either pan separately. The "SAVORY" Double Boiler is made both in Enameled Ware and in Tin. It is lOU" in diameter, the Food Pan being 3" deep and the Water Pan 4U" deep. An extra deep design has Fig. 2.-Showing the three separate parts of the same diam- the "SAVORY" Double Boiler. eter but with pans 4Ys" and 6" deep respectively. The shape of this most practical device is thus such that a wide variety of foods, for every meal in the day may be cooked to advantage in it. Where a saving of time and fuel is desired, in the extra deep "SAVORY" Double Boilers one vegetable, such as potatoes, onions, turnips or carrots, may be boiled in the Water Pan and another vegetable or pudding or fruit, steamed at the time in the food pan. There will be no mixing of flavors. Cooked fruits, cereals, eggs, fish and meats, vegetables, brown bread, salad dressing, puddings, cakes and other desserts are among those for which Prize Recipes follow. u A Dinner on One Burner for Two or Three: Two veal tongues cleaned and put in food pan ... of the 'SAVORY' Double Boiler, at one side a pint of peas, also a large cup or mold with a steamed pudding, in space put potatoes. All will be cooked in one hour. There will be no shrinkage, nor loss of flavor, no danger of burning and the entire dinner will be much more wholesome. " -Mrs. T. B. Wheelock, St. Paul, Minn. 6 SAVORY Prize Recipe Book 7 4 Prize Recipes Using the "SAVORY'" Double Boiler COOKED FRUITS Savory Steamed Apples Select sound apples and wipe off thoroughly, cut out the core and fill space with granulated sugar. Place in food p:an of the Savory Double Boiler, cover and steam 15 minutes. This makes a fine breakfast fruit, very simple and inexpensive to prepare and yet delicious.. May be served with cream. Savory Steamed Apple Sauce Pare and remove the cores from the desired quantity of apples. Cut into small pieces and place in the food pan of the Savory Double Boiler. Steam until the apples are cooked soft, then, just before removing to a serving dish, add the juice of one or two oranges, a pinch of salt and sugar to taste. The orange juice gives a delicious flavor to the sauce, and the steamed apples are more tasty than those cooked in any other way. -MRS. H. G. WIRE, Long Beach, Cal. Savory Apple Sauce Pare, quarter and core the apples. Slice into the food pan of the Savory Double Boiler. Add half cup of water. Steam until soft, add sugar to suit taste and beat the sugar in thoroughly with a fork. Then steam ten minutes longer. Savory Steamed Rhubarb Wash, peel and cut the rhubarb into inch pieces.

Savory Steamed Peaches Place the fruit in the food pan of Savory Double Boiler and steam until the skins can be removed easily, (like a scalded tomato). Make a syrup of granulated sugar. Put the peaches in a jar, pour the syrup over them very hot and seal at once. Steamed peaches make a delicious dish for dessert during their season Savory Evaporated Peaches Take any quantity of evaporated peaches required and soak over night in cold water to cover. Remove skins which will slip off quite easily, leaving the peaches in perfect condition. Put the peaches in the food pan of the Savory Double Boiler with half enough water to cover, sweeten to taste and then add a small bag of ground allspice (whole spice broken fine is just as good). Cover closely and steam slowly one half hour. This method of cooking allows none of the delicious peach flavor to escape and insures perfect fruit for serving. -MRS. CHAS. T. HERD, Morganstown, W.Va. Perfect Satisfaction-this is what the "SAVORY'' Double Boiler brings you. This is the guarantee that is printed on the label. "SAVORY" Double Boiler Recipes 7 Savory Fruits Prunes, Apricots or other dried fruits are made to taste like fresh-in this modern cooker.

Savory Prunes-That Are A Little Different After washing through several waters put the prunes to soak over night. In the morning put them into the food pan of the Savory Double Boiler in the water in which they were soaked. Let them steam several hours until they are very tender and leave the seed readily. Add sugar to taste. Dissolve a little cornstarch in cold water (a rounded tablespoon to a quart of the liquor on the prunes), and stir in carefully so the skin of the prunes will not be broken. Let it cook about fifteen minutes longer and then cool thoroughly. This creamy juice over the plump dark prunes makes a dish more appetizing both to eye and palate than the shrivelled looking thin-juiced prune so often served. -MRS. W. A. ARNOLD, Richmond, Ind.

We should disabuse our minds of the idea that it is not fashionable to place the cheaper cuts of meat on ou·r tables. The meat bills of the highest salaried chefs of the wealthiest families are much smaller in proportion than the average bill of the average American cook-which shows that it is · not so much the price paid for meat as it is the way in which it is prepared. At the Outset Do you know?- That meat and poultry supply 16 per cent. of the total food material consumed in the United States. That the cheaper cuts of meat contain practically the same food value-both as to nutrition and digestion-as the expensive cuts. That the percentage of protein, which is the body building material, varies but little in the different kinds and cuts of meat, not enough in fact to say that one kind of meat has more food value than another. The fat portion of bacon or salt pork is an exception however, and runs lower in protein. What Therefore is the Difference Between the Cheaper and More Expensive Cuts? The chief difference between the cheaper and more expensive cuts of meat is not so much in their nutritive value as in their texture and flavor. Under the backbone in the hind quarter is the place from which the mo$t tender meat comes. This is usually called the tenderloin. Sometimes in beef and also in pork it is taken out whole and sometimes it is left to be cut up with the rest of the loin. · In old animals and in those parts of the body where there has been much muscular action, the neck and the legs, for example, the muscle fibers are tough and hard. But there is another point which 24 SAVORY Prize Recipe Book 25 is of even greater importance than this. The fibers of all muscles are bound together by a thin membrane known as connective tissue. This membrane, if heated in water or steam, is converted into gelatin. The process goes quickly if the meat is young and tender; more slowly if it is tough. This connective tissue is soluble in vinegar, so tough meat may be made more tender by soaking it in vinegar, or vinegar and water. In this way is made sour beef or "sauer fleisch" a palatable German dish. Flavor in meat depends mainly on certain nitrogenous substances, which are called "extractives". The quality of the extractives and the resulting flavor of the meat vary with the condition of the animal and in different parts of its body. They are usually considered better developed in older than in very young animals. Many persons suppose that extractives or the flavor they cause are best in the most expensive cuts of meat. In reality, cuts on the side of beef are often of better flavor than the tender cuts. The extractives or flavor in meat contain no nutritive value but are important because they excite the digestive organs to action. It is this quality which justifies the taking of soup at the beginning of a meal and the giving of broths, meat extracts and similar preparations to invalids. We recommend that you read the pamphlet entitled "Economical Use of Meat in the Home", issued by The Agricultural Derartment of the United States Government. Their experiments show that in many families of fairly good income, table conditions are far from satisfactory. In numbers of instances expensive cuts of meat were so badly cooked that it was hardly possible to eat them. Cheaper cuts are not only more economical but much more satisfactory.

Seamless Sanitary Self-basting Self- browning 26 SAVORY Prize Recipe Book Explanation of the Differen\ Cuts of Meat Fig, 4-Diagram illustrating the Different cuts of Beef Together with their average Relative Weights and Prices. Round and Rump--The rump is the fleshy portion over the thigh. After it is cut off, the round extends on down to the shank, having only one bone near the center. The round of beef is 92 per cent. meat and 8 per cent. bone. Loin-The loin of beef is sub-divided into porterhouse or short cuts, T-hone and sirloin. The porterhouse consists of the first five or six steaks from the small end next to the ribs. Next to this comes the T-hone steaks, regarded by many as the very choicest part of the loin. The last six of eight steaks next to the round are known as the sirloin. The tenderloin is the inside portion of lean meat near the rib end of the loin. As a rule the tenderloin is only cut from the cheaper carcasses and the balance of the loin is used for canning in such cases. Where the tenderloin is cut from the choice carcass, a fancy price is charged for it, as it seriously injures the value of the rest of the loin. Sirloin Ends-In some markets the ends of the sirloin and T-hone steaks, which run down into the flank, are cut off at the point where the flesh widens and are sold separately. These ends are coarser than the loin meat, but properly cooked are as good as any part of the animal. Riba-This section consists of the first seyen ribs and is mostly used for roasts. The cuts nearest the loin are considered the choicest and sell for the most money. Next to the chuck the meat is deeper and rather coarser. The average rib roast of beef is 79 per cent. meat and 21 per cent. bone. Chuck-The lower eight or ten inches of that portion marked chuck is known to the trade as the "clod." This lies just above the brisket and extends up to the lower portion of the neck. This is cut mostly for pot roasts and contains much lean meat. Most of the chuck is cut into steaks the best portions being on the end nearest to the ribs. The portion next to the neck usually sells for pot roast or boiling. SA VOR Y Prize Recipe Book 27 Neck-This part usually sells with a part of the chuck and is fit mostly for boiling. It is fleshy but coarse. Plat-The plate is the lower portion of the carcass below the ribs, taking in the covering of the belly. It is mostly used for boiling but contains some good meat. Briaket-This takes in the portion between the shank and the clod, or lower part of the chuck. It is a very fleshy piece with some heavy bone, but makes fine pot roast or boiling meat. Flank-A section of lean meat overlies the flank which is stripped off and is known as the flank steak, and is much sought after. The balance of the flank is mostly used for sausage and hamburger, but can be boiled. Sbtmk-That portion of the shank from the knee or heel, to the cut above, is fleshy, though coarse, and is mostly used for boiling. The lower part is mostly bone and sinew and is for soup and boiling. In the forelegs this is called the shin. What to Look For When Buying Meat The following six simple rule~ should be borne in mind in buying meat: 1. Remember first that the taste of meat when served, lies most in the preparation it has previously received. A piece of beef from a cut that will cost four to ten cents per pound can be made as attractive, appetizing and nutritious as a cut from the loin that will cost from twenty-five to thirty-five cents per pound. 2. Insist upon seeing the carcass from which the meat is to be cut. See that it carries the stamp "U. S. Inspected and Passed," which is a guarantee from the government that the meat is healthy. 3. A prime piece of meat will not only carry an outside covering of fat, but all through the lean meat will be small specks of fat, giving it a marbled appearance. With a little experience anyone can tell good meat from poor. 4. Remember that some cuts of meat, often the cheaper ones, are 5 per cent. bone and 95 per cent. meat while others, often the most expensive ones are 30 per cent. bone and 70 per cent. meat. 5. Always ask your butcher for any bones he may cut out of your meat. There's lots of nutritious value in them for soups. You have paid for them and you should have them. 6. Do not have the bone cut out of a roast. It cooks better and is sweeter with the bone left in. The bone also helps to hold the sap in the meat. 28 SAVORY Prize Recipe Book Four Rules for Cooking Meat 1. In cooking beef remember that the sap or juice of the beef is one of the most important parts of the meat. It should be so cooked as to retain these juices. This is best done, in the case of a steak, by searing on the outside. In broiling a steak, place close to the fire at first, turning frequently until the outside is seared brown. Then so place it that it can cook slowly until done. Remember that rare meat does not mean raw meat. Meat cooked rare has a bright pink appearance. If not cooked it will have a bluish purple color. When beef is rare it is cooked in its own sap. 2. Beef should not be fried in grease. For convenience it may be cooked upon a hot frying pan or skillet. In this case use no grease and turn the steak over two or three times to sear the outside and retain its sap. Never cook beef in boiling grease. 3. In roasting beef have the oven very hot before putting it in. This will sear the outside and seal in the sap. Then lower the temperature of the oven slightly and let it roast until done to the point desired. If you use gas for fuel, have your oven very hot for the first fifteen minutes, then reduce the flame otherwise your meat will roast too quickly. 4. Pot roast should be par boiled and finished with very little water, and kept covered. A good plan is to first boil tender, then take off the water and finish by roasting in the oven An Improved Way for Cooking Fish The "SAVORY Roaster Fish Rack", a new auxiliary to the "SAVORY" Roaster that extends the already great usefulness of this celebrated device, brings the practical housekeeper an improved way of cooking fish.

Dip each slice lightly in water and pile them all in the Savory Roaster, taking care that each slice lies flat and straight. Covel closely and place in a hot oven 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and when cool enough to handle, spread each slice with any desired filling and roll up slowly and place where it will not unroll. When cold they will keep their shape. The steaming process not only renders them pliable so they may be rolled without breaking but gives them a sweeter taste, as of fresh bread. Piled in pyramid shape, row upon row, on an oblong platter they resemble nicely rolled napkins. -CLARA RUCH, University Place, Nebr. CAKE Savory Macaroons Grind very finely a quantity of sweet almonds in proportion to the number of macaroons you intend makingadd just a few bitter almonds and-if at hand-some drops of almond extract. Bind the paste with the whites of several well beaten eggs-and add a little thick syrup-made of white sugar and water. As the paste will not be stiff enough, ?..~d powdered sugar and a little ground cinnamon until it is stiff enough to handle. Line the bottom of a Savory Roaster with a thick paper and put on it small portions of the almond paste, sprinkling over the top of each a little powdered sugar and cinhamon, and sticking in the center 1 or 2 blanched almonds. When they are a pale biscuit color, remove from the oven. . -MRS. W. P. ROBB, Paita, Peru, South America.

"How good that coffee tastes ! " "I wish we could have it this way ,every morning.'' You can. You can make the most delicious coffee every time you have it-through the use of the "SAVORY" Coffee Percolator. How It Works The principle upon which this perfect coffee maker works, is clearly illustrated in the accompanying illustration. The heat is applied under the base of the tube. This forces the water up the tube and out into the coffee basket where it percolates down through the coffee. As the water is driven out of the tube, more water takes its place, and this, in turn, is heated and thrown OUt at the top Fig. 7-Showing how the "SAVORY" Percolator extracts the of the tube. The oper- full flavor from the Coffee, keeping ation becomes more ltfreefrOJ;nthegrounds. frequent until the gushes of water follow each other up the tube in quick succession. In ten minutes pumping, all of the water in the pot will have strained through the coffee from three to five times, extracting every bit of the rich coffee flavor without boiling and without any grounds or sediment. This gives you clear, fragrant coffee, of full strength. Not the bitter tasting liquid commonly known as "strong" coffee, but the deli- - cate, full flavored satisfying taste that delights every lover of good coffee. One housekeeper kept an accurate account for a few weeks of the cost of the eggs she saved by using the "SAVORY" Percolator (no eggs needecl). She found that in this item alone she had more than paid for her "SAVORY" Percolator, to say nothing of having used a less expensive coffee and having had a better beverage. SAVORY Prize Recipe Book 43 Directions-" Savory Coffee" Fill the pot of the Savory Percolator with hot water to the number of cups needed. (Not less than 3). Put into the Percolator basket 1 heaping teaspoonful of finely ground coffee (not pulverized) for each cup of water. (Use at least 4). Place Percolator standard and basket inside the pot, being sure that the base fits into the depression in the bottom. Allow the Percolator to pump from 6 to 10 minutes. With 10 minutes pumping these proportions will make coffee of as strong flavor as the average person cares to drink. The proportions may be changed to suit the taste. The Savory Percolator is working at its best when the water comes out of the tube in full, quick gushes. If a continuous stream of hot water and steam comes from the tube, it is an indication that the water is boiling and the flame should be reduced or the Percolator moved to a part of the stove that is not so hot. On oil, gas or gasoline stoves it is better to use a stove lid between the flame and the pot. You will find it impossible to get better coffee than can thus be made in the Savory Percolator and with this you will find it always possible to make the same delicious drink.

With it you can make a better cup from 25c-lb. coffee than you can from 40c-lb. coffee made in the old way.
