Show I.ynn Says: You can be smart about the way you use leftovers. Here are a few ideas: Save leftover vegetables from dinner, wash the butter off and use in salads combined with celery, lettuce and dressing. Use other vegetables for stews, meat pies, and casseroles. Leftover roasts slice nicely so you can have them cold or serve hot with leftover gravy. Meats combine well in casseroles, croquettes, cro-quettes, stews, soup and salads. Meat juices and bones combined com-bined with a few vegetables make up nicely into soups. Clarify fats (bacon drippings, lard, suet, or chicken fat) by heating and adding 1 peeled, sliced potato and cooking until fat stops bubbling. Strain through a double cheesecloth, and store. Substitute M cup clarified fat for 1 cup butter in recipes. Pour cooked cereals leftover from breakfast into jars or pans. Slice, fry and serve with syrup. Leftover egg yolks are good for custards, mayonnaise, sauces and frosting. Leftover egg whites are excellent for angel food cakes, frostings, meringues and sauces. |
