Work to a smooth paste and then add the oil slowly at first and then faster until all the oil is thoroughly incorporated, beating it quite hard. Add the salt to taste. Now add the vinegar to reduce to desired consistency; then drain the cabbage, turn on a cloth and let dry before pouring over the dressing. Use three-quarters cup salad oil.
MINCE PIE
Two cups of flour,
One-half teaspoon of salt,
One teaspoon of baking powder,
Two teaspoons of sugar.
Place in a mixing bowl and then sift. Now rub three-quarters cup of shortening and mix to a dough with about six tablespoons of water. Divide the dough, then roll out and cover a pie plate. Use one and one-half pounds of mincemeat to fill. Cover with a crust and then wash with beaten egg. Bake in a moderate oven for forty-five minutes.
Note.—To wash the pie use one-half of beaten egg, using the balance in the chicken filling.
You know there is a great little story told about the pie-loving New Englanders, and as the story goes, there are only two kinds of pie, namely, "'Tis mince and 'tain't mince." So, as Grandma Perkins says, "This is all mince."
