Ingredients: 1 loaf day old bread (not sandwich) preferably Pepperidge or Arnold 1 cup peanut butter ½ to ¾ cup corn oil Pepperidge dressing crumbs, cornflakes or graham cracker crumbs Directions: Remove the crusts and cut bread into 4 or 5 fingers. Heat fingers and crusts in 350° oven until dry all through but not toasted. Crush crusts for crumbs. Add the oil to plain or crunch peanut butter. Dip the bread fingers in the peanut mixture ( it should be soupy). Then roll fingers in the combined toasted crumbs and Pepperidge dressing crumbs. Place on paper towels to dry.

Add 1 large onion, sliced, 1 clove of garlic, 1 lemon, sliced, 2 bay leaves, 2 tsp. black pepper, 1 tsp. salt. 7 whole cloves. Simmer one hour longer. Strain the stock; remove skin and bones from pigs feet, add additional cooked meat if desired, and place in the strained stock. Add vinegar and salt to taste and strip of pimento for color. Pour into a pan to mold. When chilled and firm, slice and eat. Almanell Vinson West Palm Beach, FL. |

Sprinkle salt and pepper on beef roast - 2,3, or 4 ribs. Place in preheated oven at 375° for exactly one hour. Then turn off oven. This may be done hours ahead of serving. Step #1 - Do not open door or oven until you have completed step #2. This is important. Step #2 - Before serving set oven to 300° and reheat a 2-rib roast for 18 minutes; a 3-rib roast 22 to 25 minutes; a 4-rib roast to 30 minutes. It will be rare and perfect with juices all the way through and ready to carve immediately. Betty J. Vinson Bens Riviera Beach, FL. |
