1906 A Bachelor's Cupboard

A BACHELOR'S CUPBOARD Devils and Grills In a deep dish, make a marinade of a tablespoonful or more of vinegar, a little chopped tarragon, if you're an epicure, a clove of chopped garlic and a chopped green pepper (seeds re- moved). Lay the pork in this for two hours, then broil and serve on hills of mashed potato. This was used in the South " befo' de w^ah," and I reckon you-all '11 it some cold night when the wind Is whistling Even a bachelor may tire of a porterhouse GRILLADES occasionally and sigh for a change. Then is the time for him to test the Grillades, which they do this way in New Oleans: Cut a thick steak — tender- loin will do — into pieces about four inches square. Pour a little olive oil over each piece and let stand a few minutes, then broil over hot coals if you have them, otherwise under a fine hot gas flame just enough to sear the outside. Then place in a baking pan, sprinkle with one chopped onion, one green pepper, a table- spoonful of tomato sauce, juice of a lemon and a quarter cupful of oil. Cover closely and when brow^n, turn. Add a bit of hot water to the gravy, boil up and serve. HOT Suppose youVe just seen a Bernard Shaw BIRDS play; isn't that an excuse for something to follow, a bit out of the ordinary? Well, while the champagne is nicely cooling In Its nest of shaved Ice, you will let one of your guests read Shaw's " On Going to Church " to the others while you are cutting flat pieces of a portion each. relish round the corners.
