Baked Beans with Relish
Bake the beans in a small basin
with a piece of scored salt pork in
centre. When cold, cover with waxed
paper, wrap in strong wrapping-paper
and place in the bottom of the picnic
basket. Fill a small jelly jar or large-
mouthed bottle with equal portions
of tomato catsup and freshly grated
horseradish, add, if at hand, 1 tbsp.
each of finely minced green pepper
and pimento or sweet red pepper.
Wrap the glass in a paper and place
in the basket. A recipe for the beans
may be found on page 8 in :< One
Hundred Luncheon Dishes."
Baked-Bean Roll with
Sausage
When baking beans substitute a
link of sausage for the salt pork.
When baked pack in a cylinder mould
-a round baking-powder can will do
-insert the sausage in the centre, and
place the mould in the ice-box. Let
it remain in the mould until serving
time. Cut it in slices and serve with
Oscar sauce or home-made chilli sauce.
Baked-Bean Savory
Cook, in 2 tbsps. of salt pork or
bacon fat a large slice of onion, add
1 teasp. curry -powder and ^ cup of
tomato pulp, or half the amount of
tomato catsup. Add 2 or S cups of
baked beans, turn into a mould, and
when cold serve on lettuce leaves.
Bologna Biscuit
Roll baking-powder biscuit dough
quite thin, cut in rounds the size of
a bologna sausage, and place a thin
slice of the sausage between each two
rounds. Bake in a quick oven. The
skin may be removed from the sausage
and the disks cut to fit the biscuit.
This, of course, should be done before
making the biscuit. If liked, a very
little French or German mustard may
be spread on each slice of sausage be-
fore laying them on the biscuit.

Eggs, Delicieuse
Plunge very fresh eggs in boiling-
water, cover and keep them just be-

Plunge them in cold water and re-
move shells. Roll them in diluted egg
white, well seasoned with salt and pep-
per and paprika, and then in finely
minced parsley or chives. Wrap each
one in waxed paper. To keep the
yolks in the centre, stand the eggs,
small end down, in a wire rack for a
day, and boil them in the rack.
Eggs, Stuffed
Cook eggs as in recipe (page 7), re-
move shells, cut in halves, lengthwise,
remove yolks, and soften them in
melted butter. Mix them with any
of the following: minced ham and

steeped an hour in a double boiler with

Corned-Beet Sandwiches
Mince boiled corned beef, moisten
with tomato catsup, chilli sauce, or

boiled dressing 1 tbsp. of tarragon
vinegar, % teasp. mustard and 1 tbsp.

kins, olives, and chives or onion, and

squeezed dry. Add finely minced
ham and spread on buttered bread.
Cover with nasturtium blossoms or
watercress, cover with the bread, and

cooked sauted liver may be used.
Trim well and mince fine. Add a

For the Thermos Bottle
Chocolate, Cold
Melt 2 squares of grated chocolate
in y$ cup of water, add y$ cup of sugar
and 3 cups of water and boil until clear
and smooth, and strain. When cold
add 1 teasp. of vanilla or sherry, or
flavor while cooking with a small stick
of cinnamon. Put on ice until very
cold, add Y% cup of cream and pour
into the thermos bottle, or carry the
cream in a separate bottle. More
sugar should be taken for those who
require it.
43
Chocolate, Hot
Melt 3 squares of grated chocolate
in % cup of hot water, add J^ cup of
sugar and 3 cups of milk, simmer 5
minutes, beating as soon as hot with
a Dover egg beater. Add 1 teasp. of
vanilla and 1 of sherry and a small
piece of orange peel. Remove peel

hot thermos bottle. Serve with a
spoonful of cream in each cup. The
cream may be carried in a separate
bottle, and also more sugar.
44
Coffee, Cold
Put 8 tbsps. of powdered coffee in
the percolator, pour over 3 cups of cold
water and cook until the liquid is
quite brown. Add 1 tbsp. of the pow-
dered coffee to the top of the perco-
lator and cook again about a minute.
Take from the fire, and when nearly
cold pour into a pitcher containing a
large piece of ice. When very cold
pour into the chilled thermos bottle.
Take a bottle of cream wrapped in a
napkin wet in ice-water, and wrapped
again in thick paper. Carry cream
and powdered sugar separately.
45
Coffee, Hot
Put 6 tbsps. of powdered coffee into
the percolator, pour over 3 cups of
cold water and cook 15 minutes, re-
move from the fire and add 1 tbsp. of
the powdered coffee and place on the
fire again for a moment. Or use the
same proportions of ground coffee, add
the crushed shell and white of 1 egg to
the coffee, stir in J^ cup of cold water,
turn into a very clean pot and add 3
cups of cold water and heat slowly
until boiling. Boil this 3 minutes,
pour in 3 tbsps. of cold water, strain
into a hot pitcher containing sugar
and cream, stir a moment and pour
into the hot thermos bottle, or carry
the cream and sugar in separate re-
ceptacles.
46
Caffeineless Coffee
This is genuine coffee from which
the caffeine has been largely removed,
and it is particularly adapted for those
to whom ordinary coffee is forbidden.
While the directions given by the
makers are as for ordinary coffee, the
writer, having used it for many years,
finds that it is necessary to make it
somewhat stronger than for ordinary
coffee. This is excellent, both hot
and iced, and may be made according
to the recipes given on the preceding
pages.
47
Egg-Nog
Mix 2 cups of cream with 1 cup of
milk which has been beaten with 4
egg yolks, a scant Y cup of sugar, 2
tbsps. each of sherry and brandy, and
a generous grating of nutmeg. Beat
well and add the egg whites beaten,
not too stiff. Chill on the ice and
pour into the chilled thermos bottle.
Ginger -Ale Punch
Crush one-half bunch of well-
washed mint leaves with % cup of
sugar, add 3 small lemons and 1 or-
ange cut in slices, J^ cup of crushed
pineapple, if at hand, and place for a
few hours on ice. Strain through a
wet cloth into a pitcher of ice, when
very cold add 1 pint of ginger ale, also
well chilled, and pour immediately
into the ice-cold thermos bottle.
49
Grape-Juice Punch
Mix grape juice with ginger ale and
White Rock water, using about half
the amount of water. Pour into a
pitcher containing cracked ice. When

loupe, grape fruit, or pineapple and

bottle.
50
Grape Juice, Hot
Heat to boiling point in a double
boiler 1 qt. of grape juice, with a few
cassia buds, or a 2-inch stick of cin-
namon, strain and return to fire until
nearly boiling, and pour into the hot
thermos bottle. This is a most deli-
cious drink for a cold day.
51
Tea, Cold
Pour 3 cups of freshly boiling water
onto 6 teasps. of tea, let stand on the
fire a moment, stir the contents of the
pot with a spoon, remove from the fire
and let stand 3 minutes. Crush 6
slices of lemon and a few leaves of mint
with 4 tbsps. of powdered sugar in a
pitcher, add cracked ice and pour in
the hot tea. When cold strain into
the chilled thermos bottle.
Tea Mate, Cold
This is a delicious aromatic tea,
which is made from the leaves of a
kind of prickly holly which grows in
Brazil. According to recent authori-
ties, it accelerates the circulation of the
blood, diminishes fatigue, and is much
less exciting to the nervous system
than ordinary tea. To make it, add
to 3 cups of cold water 6 teasps. of
Mate, stir well and place on the fire
until the water boils. Stir again and
remove from the fire. Let stand 3
minutes and strain into a pitcher con-
taining 6 slices of lemon, crushed with
a few sprigs of mint and 4 tbsps. pow-
dered sugar, and plenty of cracked ice.
When cold strain into the chilled
thermos bottle.
