before Lent begins, and from
merry old England comes the

housewives are. said to have
hunted for a way to use the fats
still left in their larders. Pan
cakes were the colution.
bo how about serving up
some of your own light and
puffy pancakes when Tuesday
comes around.

serving this one many times

stirring constantly, until thick

soup, undiluted ,
2 tablespoons water

Pan-Fried Liver
Good for Diet
Nutrition authorities urge us
to eat liver at least once a week;
remind us that all meat sundries
such as hearts, kidneys, brains,
honeycomb tripe, veal sweet
breads and liver are flavor-rich,
economical and tops In nutri
tive values.
One pound of liver will serve
4 persons. It should be refriger
ated and used soon after pur-
chase. Do not soak or scald liver
except when it is to be ground.
Pan fry or broil calf, lamb or
young beef liver. Braise pork or
older beef liver; that means
brown, then cook with a little
added liquid in a covered skillet.
To Pan Fry: Have calf or
young beef liver sliced thin. It
is not advisable to remove skin
or membranes as this tends to
tear the liver. Heat a little fat
in a skillet; use lard, bacon drip
pings, butter or margarine. Fry
slices gently in moderately hot
fat a few minutes on each aide.
Be careful not to overcook.
