Food for the Sick Boom.
From an interesting paper c_
subject in the Ckrittian Union by Miss
E. R. Scovil, of the Massachusetts
General Hospital, v we cull the following
hints and recipes:
The pure juice may >e extracted from
beef
ways: First by cutting the
small pieces, putting them in s
tightly corked bottle, immersing it in
hot water, and boiling for several hours.
Second, by taking a thick piece of juicy
steak, broiling it on a gridiron over n
cleat fire for a few moments, then cat
ting it iu strips and pressing it i:
lemon squeezer. The juice thus ob
tained may be given either cold or hot.
It may be frozen, broken into lamps,
and given like cracked ice. A little
salt should be added before using.
An invalid who is tired of liot beef
tea will sometimes drink it cold or iced
with great relish. Enough isinglass or
gelatine may he added to the juice to
make a jelly, which can be flavored with
sherry, essence of celery, or anything
the patient may fancy.
Raw meat is very nutritions, any may
the invalid’s bill of fare, the merits of
a vesl sweetbread have been sadly over
looked. .When properly cooked it is a
delicious dish, and may fepipt a capri
cious appetite that has grown weary of
other viands. A sweetbread"shotild be
parboiled for a short tiufe until quite
soft, and then fried in n little batter to
a delicate brown. It may be served
with gravy or white saw*.
Port wine jelly may sometimes be
given when the wine itself would*excite
disgust.' Dissolve half an ounce of
gelatine in three toblespoonfnls of water;
add a little white sugar, and nutmeg or
cinnamon if the taste is liked; let it
melt over a very gentle heat, put in five
wiaeglassfnls of port and stir constant
ly for ten minutes. Strain it into a
mould moistened with cold water. A
piece as large aa an egg ahoald be eaten
o or three times n day.
Delicious oat meal gruel may be made
by stirring a cupful of oat meal into a
bowl of water, allowing it to stand for
a few minutes until tbe coarsest parti
cles have fallen to the bottom, pouring
off tfie water, and repeating this once or
twice. The water must then be boiled,
stirring it constantly until it is suffici
ently cooked.
Few persons understand properly the
art of making lemonade. Tbe lemon
should first be rolled between the hands
until it is quite soft, the skin removed
with n sharp knife, and every pip ex
tracted, the lemon being held over n ’
tumbler that no juice may be lost in the
operation. The pulp should then be
divided into small pieces and the sugar
thoroughly mixed with it. Last of all
the requisite amount of water should be
added to it. Orangeade may he made
in the same way as kmonade. using less
sugar. They both 'should be iced.
Imperial drink is made by adding a
small tenspooufnl of cream of tartar,
dissolved in boiling water, to each pint
of lemonade.
