To Stew Potatoes.
Chop or slice cold potatoes; season with pepper and salt; stew them,
with a little butter and milk, and a dust of flour; when nearly done,
stir in a yelk of egg with some chopped parsley--they will cook in a few
minutes, and may be sliced over night if you wish an early breakfast.
Sweet Potatoes.
To boil sweet potatoes, put them in a pot with plenty of water; let them
boil fast till you can run a fork through the largest; then pour off the
water, and leave them in the pot a quarter of an hour; you can then peel
the skin off or leave it on. Some prefer them baked in a dutch-oven;
they should have a quick heat; large potatoes will take an hour to bake.
It has been found a good way to boil them, till nearly done; then peel
and bake them--they are drier and nicer. |
