Chipped Beef
Yield: 60 men
Portion: not given
Ingredients:
15 lb chipped beef
1 lb Fat, butter preferred
1&1/4 lb flour, browned in fat
2 (12 oz.) cans evaporated milk
1 bunch parsley
1/4 oz. pepper
6 qt. beef stock
Method:
Melt the fat in the pan, and add the flour; when it has been cooked a few minutes, add the milk, dissolved in the beef stock, or water. Stir the batter in slowly to prevent lumping, and then add the beef. Cook a few minutes, add the parsley, and serve on toast.
Notes:
If the beef is very salty, it should be scalded before cooking.
