1.--Potato and Meat Turnovers.
Mix with mashed potatoes a few spoonfuls of flour, a little salt and
baking powder in the proportion of half a teaspoonful to 1/2 a cupful of
flour. Use only sufficient flour to roll out in a 1/2 inch sheet. Cut
into circles the size of a saucer, lay on each a spoonful of seasoned
meat, fold over and pinch the edges together. Lay on a greased pan,
brush each with milk and bake brown in a hot oven.--From "Table Talk,"
Phila.
2.--Browned Potato Puree.
Put 3 tablespoonfuls of good dripping into your soup-kettle and fry in
it 1 dozen potatoes which have been pared, quartered, and laid in cold
water for an hour. With them should go into the boiling fat a large,
sliced onion. Cook fast but do not let them scorch. When they are
browned add two quarts of boiling water, cover the pot, and simmer
until the potatoes are soft and broken. Rub through a colander back into
the kettle and stir in a great spoonful of butter rolled in browned
flour, a tablespoonful of browned parsley, salt and pepper to taste. In
another saucepan make a sugarless custard of a cup of boiling milk and 2
well-beaten eggs; take from
