Irish or not, the traditional
"boiled dinner" of corned beef and
cabbage makes a mighty satislying
meal. Dress up the cured brisket
with a brown sugar glaze and a
clove or two for decoration, and
this wholesome, appealing dish be
comes fine fare for a super par
ty. This old fashioned favorite now
has new-fashioned convenience
in packaging, which will make it
especially popular with home
makers. The corned beef briskets,
cut in two to four pound pieces
to suit your family's needs, arc
packaged in a neat transparent
wrapping which seals in the
flavor and quality of the brisket.
The handy package bears a well-
known brand name to assure you
of a consistently fine flavored,
quality product, and cooking di
' rcctioni as a guide to fine eating.
Corned beef brisket should be
water cooked, allowing plenty of
time to develop its full-flavored,
tender goodness. Although this
meat is the basis for "boiled din
ner," it should not be boiled, but
covered with water and gently
simmered until done. To glaze
th.3 brisket, remove it from the
broth and spread tin. fat cover
ing with prepared mustard and
sprinkle with brown sugar. Add
a shamrock of whole cloves to
do honor to good St. Patrick,
l'lace the meal in a shallow pan
and bake in a hot over (400 de
grees F.) for about 20 minutes
to melt the glaze. While the
corned beef is browning to a
golden color, cook wedges of red
and green cabbage in the flavor
giving broth in which the meat
vat cooked.
The rosy slices of flavorful
corned beef with the wedges of
cabbage will present a colorful
platter that not only looks won
derful, but tastes wonderful, too.
Parsley potatoes, hot buttery rolls'
and a fruit salad will help make
this a truly memorable meal.
Corned Beef and Cabbage

' Cooking time: About 4 hours.
4 pounds corned beef
1 head cabbage

to IS minutes.
PI-RK IP SPREADS
Sandwich time can be a bore
unless you perk up your spread
ideas every so often. Try
blending honey with cream
cheese, peanut butter, or chop
ped dried fruits and nuts for
sandwich spreads.

Lent Starts Soon; Fish
Dishes More in Demand
Honey Drop Cookies Crisp and Crunchy
Fish dishes will be coming into
their own soon with Lent start
ing in early March. Today are
presented two fish dishes, one
using oysters, the otner shrimp.
Oysters Rockefeller
1 pint oysters
1 cup conked spinach
1 small onion
2 sprigs parsley
Patties of
Lamb Good
If you've resolved to be a wise
food buyer, here's a suggestion
for you. Plan a tasty and quick
broiler meal around ground lamb
patties.
To prepare the patties combine
1 pound of ground lamb with 1
teaspoon salt, V teaspoon pep
per, Vt teaspoon marjoram, V
cup soft bread crumbs and V cup
milk. Mix thoroughly, then shape
into four patties, about 1 inch
thick.
In the meantime brown 2 ta
blespoons of grated onion in lard
or drippings. Then add 2 cups
boiled rice and 1 can of tomato
soup. Season with salt and pep
per and spread the rice mixture
in your broiler pan. Drain 1 No.
303 can of green beans or 1 pack
age of cooked frozen green beans
and arrange around the edge of
the rice. Place the patties on the
broiler rack over the rice and
beans. Then insert the broiler pan
so the top of the patties is about
2 inches from the heat. When one
side is browned, 10 to 12 minutes,
turn and continue broiling until
the other side is brown, about 8
minutes.
Complete your meal with a cit
rus fruit salad, French bread and
a simple dessert.
Dress up Sherbet
Sherbet is a popular dessert.
And well it might be. It gives
just the right finishing touch to
a heavy meal. Next time you
serve a lemon or orange sherbet,
dress it up with just a touch of
honey placed at the peak of the
sherbet scoop. It's delicious!
Sweet Treat
Apple or plum butter, when
served with the meal, add that
extra polish that brands a
homemakcr as a goud cook. For
fun mix a little honey into the
apple or plum butter before you
serve it; it will be a sweet treai
for your family.
