Macaroni Farmers' Style Recipe
Boil half a pound of macaroni as above, and
while you are draining it from the cold water, stir together over the
fire one ounce each of butter and flour, and as soon as they bubble
gradually pour into the sauce they make, a pint of boiling water,
beating it with a fork or egg whip until it is smooth; season it with a
level teaspoonful of salt and a level saltspoonful of pepper, and put
the macaroni in it to heat; then cut an onion in small shreds, and brown
it over the fire in a very little fat; when both are done dish the
macaroni, and pour the onion out of the frying pan upon it. It is
excellent; and ten cents will cover the cost of all of it.
