A Man of humble birth and no breading, who held a high political office, was passing through a forest, when he met a Monkey. "I take it you are one of my constituents," the Man said. "No," replied the Monkey; "but I will support you if you can urge a valid claim to my approval." "I am a self-made man," said the other, proudly. "That is nothing," the Monkey said.
But among her good points was an absolute reverence for food. She never wasted a mouthful, even saving the crusts she cut from the toast to grind for breading and doing all the thrifty things one would do oneself, but which no cook ever born is expected to do nowadays.

And together they found Paradise in the shabby sitting-room of the old Methodist parsonage that afternoon. "Must you prepare meat for breading half an hour before cooking, or when?" demanded Fairy, from the dining-room door. "What? Oh! Fifteen minutes before. Don't forget to salt and pepper the crumbs, Fairy."
Take pieces of stale bread, break them in small bits, put them on a baking pan and place them in a moderate oven, watching closely that they do not scorch; then take them while hot and crisp and roll them, crushing them. Sift them, using the fine crumbs for breading cutlets, fish, croquettes, etc. The coarse ones may be used for puddings, pancakes, etc.
For instance, bread crumbs are used for all kinds of scalloped dishes; for making puddings, such as bread pudding, brown Betty, etc.; for stuffing fish, fowl, and such vegetables as tomatoes and peppers; for covering the top of baked dishes, such as various egg and cheese dishes; for breading steaks and chops; and for covering croquettes or oysters that are to be fried.
