« Corn salad in my kitchen | Main | I've been thinking about getting one of these » Thursday, August 9, 2007How to throw a party
Belmont baker Vicki Lee Boyajian found this pamphlet in her mother's kitchen (we were baking pies yesterday for a Food section story for later this month). Inside, the first page reads, "A Selection of family-tested recipes from the Women's Pages of the Boston Globe." It seems to be a compilation from Confidential Chat, mixed with specialties from a party column run in that section. Here is an excerpt from the introduction: "Parties are meant for fun. Like a good marriage, a good party is made of congenial ingredients. There's the secret." A "Let's Eat Outdoors!" teenage barbecue, suggests this menu:
Offer this today -- "Potato Salad for a Gang," made with a vinegary mayo dressing; "Real-Gone Burgers," with chives, parsley, and an egg worked into ground top round or sirloin; "Smoky Cheese Burger," which includes Worcestershire sauce, grated Cheddar, and hickory smoke salt; "Peanut Butter Brownies," made with unsweetened chocolate, shortening, and peanut butter; "Chewy Brownies," made with a package of quick fudge or penuche mix; and "Easy Butterscotch Sundae," which mixes light corn syrup, light cream, and margarine -- and you'll probably have a delighted crowd.
