POTATOES BOILED IN LARD.

Pare and slice thick eight or ten large potatoes. Half fill a good sized kettle with lard or drippings. When boiling put in the potatoes; cook until tender and brown; then take out with a skimmer into a colander to drain off any grease. Sprinkle salt over them. Be sure and not fill the kettle too full with potatoes, as it is better to cook at a time only what the lard covers.
