Devils

Grills

DEVILED

requires

a

different

treatment.

For

this,

a

LOBSTER

dash

of

curry

powder

is

stirred

into

a

paste

with

some

dry

mustard,

salt,

black

pepper

and

olive

oil.

Spread

over

the

pieces

of

lobster,

then

lay

them

in

a

dish

and

in

an

ounce

of

melted

butter;

cook

ten

minutes

if

fresh

and

no

epicure

ever

wants

canned

lobster.

OF

in

a

bachelor

household

not

far

from

DEVILING

Washington

Square

in

New

York,

is

this:

The

slices

are

carefully

trimmed,

then,

if

cut

thick,

are

scored

with

a

knife.

French

mustard,

pepper,

salt,

and

cayenne

are

mixed

with

soft

butter

to

make

a

paste,

then

rubbed

in

the

scored

and

grilled.

SARDINES

by

first

draining

the

sardines

from

oil

and

removing

the

skins

by

rubbing

them

off.

A

tablespoon-

ful

of

butter

is

heated

in

the

chafing

dish,

and

the

sardines

are

laid

in this

and

heated

thoroughly

before

serving

on

toast

or

crackers.

Toasted

Uneeda

biscuit

make

a

delightful

accompaniment

to

these. If

deviled

sardines

are

wanted,

mash

the

sardines

with

a

silver

fork

and

after

sauteing

in

melted

butter

or

a

little

of

the

oil,

a

generous

quantity

of

tomato

ketchup

is

added,

with

a

dash

of

tabasco,

if

wanted

very

hot,

and

the

other

usual

seasoning

of

salt,

pepper,

etc.

A

few

drops

of

lemon

juice

furnish

the

final

touch,

as

the

mixture

is

served piping

hot

on

toasted

crackers.
