Not through the purchase of cheaper meats, so that five tough, stringy roastb may be had for the price of four choice roasts . . . Not at all . . . but through the elimination of waste in cooking. In the average oven the roasting process is little more than a drying process. No circulating heat is required of an electric oven, however. The meat is quickly seared, the juiees and original flavor sealed in and little or no waste is experienced in roasting. Since this is true the difference in weight of five roasts cooked electrically, a* compared with the weight of five roasts of equal original weights cooked by other means, actually amounts to the same as one roast free. How- much is such a saving-worth over a period of years? Any food shrinks learand tastfcs better when cooked electrically. This fact, plus a saving in operating cost, makes electric cookery worthy of you r serious consideration. Don’t wait for a more opportune time to select an Electric Range for your kitchen.
