BEEF STEWED WITH ONIONS
Cut two pounds of tender beef into small pieces, season with pepper and salt; slice one or two onions and add to it, with water enough to make a gravy. Let it stew slowly, till the beef is thoroughly cooked, then add some pieces of butter rolled in Gold Medal Flour, enough to make a rich gravy. Cold beef may be cooked in the same way, but the onions must then be cooked before adding them to the meat. Add more boiling water if it dries too fast.
