ELLEN’S DIARY

In Olden Days In England

Pancake Day Was Holiday

Pancakes were among our breads at supper this after- noon. And as we made them, pouring the mixture in neat rounds to the sizzling pan, we were again a little girl, bearing home with other children — at noontime, proud mugs of rasp- berries, gathered from a stump- land toward the far line of the farm. It was a golden day, a happy time. True we had spied with some feminine trepidation, a smallish green snake, steal away through the bracken to a haven beneath a decaying log. But that sight faded, as we filed, one after another, by the little path through a small clearing of new land sown to its first crop to buckwheat. There, lall was sunshine and blossoms

This week, after all, had re- ‘turned “Pancake” Day”. “Shrove™ Tuesday to us, the last day be- fore the Season of Lent... It is interesting to note that back in 1954, it fell on the same day, March 2nd, and whether or not an early spring on the fields followed, we have not yet made out

In olden times, we are told, Pancake Day was a great event. Indeed in England in many cases, a public holiday. A Pan- cake Bell was rung in the Chur- ches at eleven in the morning to announce the start of the Day. A verse from a writing of 1684, tells something of the gala spirit associated with it

THIS week we are featuring eggs. one of our greatest and most adaptable foods, with al- unlimited uses According ito the egg’s report card. brown and white eggs have the same nutritive value

By U.S. standards, grade eggs are the highest ia quality. They are followed by “A B,” and ‘'C."

Best For bboiling

Because the white and yolks are firmer, grade ‘‘AA" or ‘‘A” are best for boiling, poaching and frying; also for use in cook- ing when the recipe calls for “separating’’ the egg whites from the yolks

Grade “B” eggs also give good results when boiled, poach- ed or fried. Grade "B or “C" are satisfactory for scram- bling. omelets. shirring, and for use in cooking when the eggs do not have to be separated

Because eggs have such high nutritive value, they are class- ed as a protein food, equally sul- table for breakfast, luncheon, dinner or supper. A U.S. favor- ite is ham and eggs, and be- cause of the requests of the travelling American public. this dish is now known and _avail- able in restaurants around the world Gourmet Touches
