The Cookery

Busy hands are happy hands. Yes, the Cookery does have busy hands and it is our hope to help make Faith Church a happier place.

Recently a faithful few cleaned stoves, ovens, stainless steel cabinets and did several small projects necessary to maintain a clean kitchen which is used by a variety of people.

Thank you, Kathy and John Buchanan, Ann Everetts, Carolyn Krueger and Patti Deems. Your time and efforts are much appreciated.

The Cookery served a light lunch to the family and friends of Jane Wells following the memorial services for her husband, Bill. Jane has been a faithful supporter of the Cookery and we extend our sympathy.

A recent quote I read seems “fitting.” We strive to be like a well-regulated watch of pure gold, with open face, busy hands and of good works.

Vegetables are an important part of our diet and beets are a good change from peas, beans and corn, the usual. Today we chose Harvard Beets, a dish we have used on the buffet line for several meals served by the Cookery.

Our Recipe of the Month

Harvard Beets

2 cups beets

1/4 cup sugar

1 T cornstarch or clear jell

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 cup vinegar

1/4 cup water or beet juice

2 T butter

Mandarin oranges (garnish) optional

In saucepan, mix sugar, cornstarch and salt together, add vinegar and water. Cook until thick. Fold in beets and butter. Garnish with mandarin oranges if desired.

Use clear jell the same way as cornstarch. It maintains a smooth consistency. Cornstarch tends to be lumpy when re-warmed. Same with gravy.

Clear jell can be purchased at Beilers in Uniontown. You can also buy jello, all flavors, in bulk form at Beilers, much cheaper—1/3 cup equals 3 oz box.
