I The Food We Eal
By Rout T. Winchester.
We must share the meat with
our fighters, our allies, and our
neighbors—yet keeping the good
nutrition and good flavor of
meat on the table is mainly a
matter of learning new kinds,
new cuts and new receipts.
There are more different cuts
of meat than you realize, per
haps—actually more than 200,
including various types of sau
sage. (Yet the average woman
knows only 12.) Your meat man
has some of them most of the
time. All of them are equally
nutritious. Try them and see
how tasty they are.
Try this one:
Liver Patties.
V/j pounds of liver
4 tablespoons butter or butter
substitute
2 cups cracker crumbs
2 tablespoons grated onion
1-4 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon salt
iy> cups milk
Bacon.
Parboil or broil liver and put
through food chopper. Mix
thoroughly with other ingre
dients and shape into patties
about one inch thick. Wrap with
strips of bacon and fasten with
a tooth pick. Broil until brown.
Serves six.
More than 2,000 Norwegian
