Way With Roast Beef
Nearly everyone can cook roast gether, and serve as cold as pos-
beef; but it is worth remember-sible,
ing by those of small family that for a special occasion'a fillet of beef makes an excellent roast, especially if it is first larded or well wrapped round with fat rashers of bacon to prevent it: from drying up, for it will require a rather fercer oven than ordin- arly But whatever the joint, there are three accompaniments which should be insisted on: Yorkshire Pudding, Mustard and Horseradish Bauce.
Mustard Tips
For the perfect enjoyment of our next roast beef, a tip or two may here be allowed. The must- ard must be English, mellowed, if you like, by using milk instead of water to mix it or heightened in strength by the addition of chilli vinegar, cayenne pepper and a pinch of sugar. Another tip is to add a little salt to the mustard when making it; it will improve the flavour, and keep the must- ard moister. But some prefer French or German mustards,' which can, of course, be bought at most grocers.
Horseradish Sauce
Horseradish Sauce tempts us readymade from a bottle; but in case you prefer to make your own, here is a simple though delicious recipe. Vary the proportions for a lesser or greater amount. · Mix a teaspoonful of mustard with a dessertspoonful of vinegar, add a* quarter of a pound of finely scraped horseradish, half un ounce of castor sugar, a pinch of Balt, B. gill of cream and a quar- ter of a pound of fresh bread- crumbs which have been soaked -in-milk; and then-pressed as dry as possible. Mix all these well to-
FRENCH TERMS IN COOKERY
The term "en casserole" is " commonly applied nowadays to all dishes which are cooked, in an earthen ware saucepan, most of them stewed. The proper meaning of the term is a diah "poeled" in the oven in a closed earthenware dish (the zound ones being called "casseroles" and the oval ones "cocotter"), and served in the same dish,
Cooking "en casserale" is *sually simply in butter without the addition of any vegetables, but when the meat is done 'it is taken
out ofs Hemin
casserole, and some rich brown stock, preferably veal, is simmered in the pan for few minutes to capture the juices which the butter has absorbed. The butter is then re- moved and the meat served in the gravy.

Diabes "en cocotte" a are more often than not poultry and game, and are cooked in the same way: save that various vegetables are added according to the nature of the dish. These may be mush- TOOMS, carrots, turnips, onions, peas, artichoke bottoms and so on. They are Brat half cooked in butter, and introduced into the cocotte in accordance with the time they take to finish their cooking, so that they and the mest may be finished together.
It is always better to use" fresh vegetables, and in early summer yening, chicken, cooked in this way with butter and the youngest of young-vegetables, is, delicious indeed. In some French

This sauce is, of course, a great help when the joint is eaten cald but other sauces are served with. cold beef in France which might "well be copied here: for instance. Mayonnaise, Remoulade (that is Mayonnaise to which to every pint has been added a table- spoonful, each of mustard, chop-: ped gherkins, capers' and parsley, chervil and tarragon, and finally half a teaspoonful of anchovy essence) and Ravigote, which con- sists of two-thirds blive oll tô one-third vinegar, salt, pepper, capers parsley, onion, chervil, tar- ragon and chives. These last two both sompie sauces for those who, take the trouble to keep a herb patch in the garden or window- box
Beef Salad
But one of the easiest and most attractive ways of serving cold beef is as a Beef Salad, as follows: Cut the beef up into neat small pieces and mix them with the quantity of cooked potatoes cut in the same shape, some peeled to- matoes cut in pieces, a handful of chopped lettuce, hard-boiled eggs cut into rounds, a little chop- ped parsley, a few anchovy fillets cut in little pieces and a season- ing of one part vinegar to four parts oil, salt and pepper, this dressing to be mixed with the sa lad for half an hour or so before it is served.
Left-Overs
As for doing up.our beef, quite the simplest way is to cut some nice slices, arrange them in a fire- proof dish and cover them with
some bolling sauce, leaving the dish on the top of the stove for a few seconds only so that the bottom beats through
BROWNING
Though the experienced cook seldom needs browning to colour: Eer gravies and stews, rather re- lying upon the cooked particles of dripping in the roasting tin, or previous frying of vegetables. for stews, yet it is always useful to have a bottle of browning at band. It is easy to make and this is a good, method: Butter the inside of an iron saucepan" and pour in half a pound of brown sugar. Let this melt, and stir with an iron spoon until it becomes dark brown, taking care not to let it burn. When boiling freely, remove it from the fre and stir until the boiling ceases. Let it cool a little, then slowly add half a pint of cold water re turn to the fire and bring to the boil, stirring all the time to keep the browning smooth. cool, strain and bottle.
