BOILED CEREALS—Continued
REMARKS
Rice should be washed before cooking by putting it in a strainer and letting cold water run through it, at the same time rubbing the grains of rice between the tips of the fingers.
FRIED CEREALS
Boil any cereal according to the above directions. Pour it into a bowl to cool, then pack it into a buttered baking-powder box, put the cover on the box, and let it stand overnight. When needed for use, take the cereal from the box and cut it into shoes about ¼ of an inch thick. Dip each slice in flour, and brown it in a little hot fat in a frying-pan. Serve with maple syrup.
Oatmeal, corn-meal, and hominy are especially suitable for frying in this way.
