Potatoes for every day in the week.
On Sunday, peel, steam and mash; add milk, butter and salt and then steam and
beat like cake batter until nice and light; the longer the better.--Monday,
baked potatoes in the skins; be sure to take them up when done, or they will be
wrinkled and watery; if not served immediately, do them up in a napkin and tie
close to keep hot.--Tuesday, peel them and bake with roast beef, cooking them
under the meat.--Wednesday, prepare in Kentucky style, (see below).--Thursday,
peel, steam and serve whole.--Friday, peel, cut in thin slices lengthwise,
sprinkle with pepper and salt, and fry on a griddle greased with butter or beef
drippings, and turn like pancakes.--Saturday, potatoes boiled in their jackets.
