Pork Chops Recipe
Buy at a packing house two pounds of shoulder chops,
(cost sixteen to twenty cents,) roll them in flour, pepper, and salt,
put them into a hot frying pan, and fry them brown, cooking them at
least twenty minutes. Meantime boil one quart of potatoes, (cost three
cents,) in boiling water and salt, and chop fine one pickle, (cost one
cent.) When the chops are done, take them up, and keep them hot, while
you make the gravy by pouring into the frying-pan half a pint of boiling
water, and adding to it the chopped pickle, a tablespoonful of flour
mixed smooth with half a cup of cold water, and salt and pepper to
taste. Boil it up once, pour it over the chops, and serve them hot with
the potatoes.
The dinner will cost about twenty-five cents.
