Cut the meat into neat slices, and lay in a saucepan with minced ham, and a little onion between the slices. Cover with gravy, and heat slowly until near the boiling-point. Take up the meat; lay upon a dish; thicken the gravy with browned flour; add a spoonful of currant jelly; boil up, and pour over the meat.
Stewed Salsify.
Scrape, and cut each root in two, dropping into water as you scrape them. Stew in boiling water, a little salt, until tender; pour off the water; add enough milk to cover the roots; when it boils, stir in a piece of butter rolled in flour; pepper and salt; simmer five minutes, and pour out.
Potato Cones—Baked.
Mash or whip boiled potatoes light; mix with a little very finely minced parsley a little butter, a great spoonful of cream, and the yolks of two beaten eggs. Make into cone-shaped loaves, about as large as an egg; set in a greased baking-pan; wash over with beaten egg, and brown in a quick oven.
Cranberry Sauce.
See Sunday, Third Week in November.
Apple Méringue.
Sweeten and spice some nice apple sauce; beat in two or three eggs. Pour into a pudding-dish, and bake quickly. When well crusted over, cover with a méringue made by whipping stiff the whites of three eggs with a little sugar. Shut the oven-door, and tinge slightly.
