France is a portion of Utopia j
I am reserving for my declining
years. I hope some day to visit that
land of bouillabaise and crepe suz-
ettes. When J do I’ll make
straight for Mont Saint-Michel. For
there lived Madame Poulard. She
it was who flipped omelets to a
King’s taste. If she didn’t exactly
mother the hen that laid the egg,
at least Madame Poulard made
culinary history when she flipped
her first omelet. For her fame as
an omelet maker spread far and
wide.
An omelet can be tough and dry
like Irish moss. Or it can display
all the virtues of a new-laid egg,
tender within, yet firm and de
termined without, yielding the
promise of good substantial fare.
Here’s my method. Yours may vary
a jot or so but on one point we’ll
agree. The eggs must be fres'h.
Two to a person and then one
more. Drop a lump of butter into
an iro,n skillet that has been
polished clean as a teacup. Whisk
up the eggs, with salt and pepper,
and let them cook slowly and tend
erly in the skillet, over a middling
flame. When the eggs have ac
quired a firm glaze an top, run
the tip of a spatula around the
curved edge. Flip one half the
omelet over the other and gently
lift to a 'hot platter. That’s all
there .is to a Madame Poulard
omelet.

If you must gild the lily, here are
a few omelet variations: Before
folding the omelet, sprinkle with
minced chives, grated cheese, or
tomato stewed with ground clove
and onion. Children like' it with
shredded orange or pineapple.
Served with bread croutons tossed
in butter, it has a rhasculine ring
to it.
I watched a portly friend spoon
two tablespoons of brown sugar
into her cup oi coffee. “Someone
told me brown sugar isn’t as fat
tening as white. I always use
brown,” she explained. Don’t fool
yourself, lady, I said in effect.
There’s approximately only one tea
spoonful less of brown sugar than
white, in a one hundred calorie
portion.

the story of her husband’s big

Colonial needlework depicted events
in the everyday lives of their work

A jug ®if ale or porter and a
thick, juicy beefsteak was coinmonj"
fare along the New York water- ®
front one hundred years ago. A sea
captain, coming in hungry froa ,
tussle with the elerfients, could drop
in at any porterhouse ^and order
up a mess of beefsteak. It was the
cut we know as “porterhouse” but
called “roasting sirloin” .at that
time. Soon the vogue for short
orders had a quick-cooking steak
a la Porterhouse, spread, and
butchers dubbed the choice top
muscle, cut from the sirloin,
Porterhouse Steak.
Y^iiu like othear cuts of meat be-|
