Beat the yolks until lemon colored and add the hot water and the
seasoning. Beat the whites until they are stiff, and add the
cheese. Cut and fold the two mixtures together. Heat the butter in
omelet pan and cook the mixture very slowly until it is brown on
the underside. If possible, cook the top of the omelet in the oven
or by means of a hot plate held over it.
Breakfast Cereals with Cheese.
That cheese combined with cereal foods makes a rational dish as
regards the proportion of nutrients it supplies has been pointed
out on another page (p. 18). Cheese and some of the crisp “ready to
serve” cereal breakfast foods is a combination which is common, the
cheese being melted with the cereal food, or simply served with it.
There are many who relish a piece of cheese with the cooked cereal
so commonly eaten for breakfast and find such a combination
satisfying to appetite and taste. Oatmeal or some other home-cooked
breakfast cereal prepared with cheese is palatable, and such
dishes have an advantage in that they may be served without cream
and sugar. Since such a dish contains considerably more protein
than the breakfast cereals as ordinarily served, it has a further
advantage in that it may well serve as the principal item of a
breakfast menu, instead of a preliminary to other courses. Such
a combination as cereals cooked with cheese, toast, fruit, and
tea, coffee, or chocolate, makes a palatable as well as nutritious
breakfast and one which does not require much work to prepare and
to clear away. A recipe for preparing oatmeal with cheese follows.
Wheat breakfast foods, either parched or unparched, corn meal, and
hominy may be prepared in the same way.
Oatmeal with Cheese.
2 cupfuls of oatmeal.
1 cupful of grated cheese.
1 tablespoonful of butter.
1 level teaspoonful of salt.
Cook the oatmeal as usual. Shortly before serving, stir in the
butter and add the cheese, and stir until the cheese is melted and
thoroughly blended with the cereal.
The cheese should be mild in flavor and soft in texture. The
proportion of cheese used may be increased if a more pronounced
cheese flavor is desired.
Cheese with Mush.
Cheese may be added to corn-meal mush or to mush made from any of
the corn or wheat preparations now on the market. The addition of
cheese to corn-meal mush is particularly desirable when the mush is
to be fried.
Fried Bread with Cheese No. 1.
6 slices of bread.
1 cupful of milk.
2 ounces of cheese, or ½ cupful of grated cheese.
½ teaspoonful of salt.
½ teaspoonful of potassium bicarbonate.
Butter or other fat for frying.
Scald the milk with the potassium bicarbonate; add the grated
cheese, and stir until it dissolves. Dip the bread in this mixture
and fry it in the butter. The potassium bicarbonate helps to keep
the cheese in solution. It is desirable, however, to keep the milk
hot while the bread is being dipped.
