BLANcurSG or VEGETABLES.

The blanching of vegetables il n
process which American housekecpers
do not generally understand. There
are great many vegetables which
have a rank flavor, and this may be
removed by b!anching. To blanch is
to parboil in water. A delicate vegc-
table like green pea, or sweet corn
does not need blanching, but coarse
vegetable, like cabbage or onion, is
very much improved by the process.
Cabbage should always be blanched.
To do this, parc off the outer leaves
and cut the cabbage into four equal
pieces. Put them in an abundance of
boiling water and let them cook about
ten minutes. Then drop them into
cold water, and whom they are cold,
complete tho cooking. Spinach also
is always blanchcd by our best cooks.
All boiled greens are better for this
process Of blanching. Brussels sprouts
and cauliflowsr should DO blanched in
about the same time and manner o:
cabbage. String beans aud Lima
beans should be cooked in boiling
water salted, for at least Ii alf an hour,
cooled in cold water aud then cooked
till done. Turnips should be par
boiled five or ten minutes. according
to their age, but they should not be
cooled In cold water. as this would
give them bitter taste. Drain them
while they are hot and finish the cook
ing. Onions are very much better to
be cut off at either end, put in boiling
water, cooked for fifteen minutes.
then cooled and peeled. and cooked
again for twenty-five or thirty min
utes longer, till they arc done.
There is a difference of opinion as
to cooking potatoes. They are never
cooled after they arc cooked the first
time, but they are very often i'm.
proved, whom they are old, by cooking
them in two waters. At this season
old potatoes have better flavor if
they are washed thoroughly "in their
jackets" rim Of pceIing taken of,
and dropped in cold water, and cooked
for As minutes. Young potatoes
should be cooked in boiling water.
Delicate vegetables would lose all
their flavor il subjected to the process
Of blanching. The mistake our cooks
are apt to make is to apply ono gene
raj formula of salted boiling water
alike to all vegetables, whether deli
cate or coarse, cooking them all in one
way till they are tender. There IL no
universal rule that will apply to all
cooking. g.-[Boston Cultivator.

HINTS ON WASHING AND ruosiva.

HINTS ON WASHING AND inoNiNu.
Those who have had experience In
the washing aud ironing business state
that tho gloss aud stiffness which some
people admire In linen done up at the
laundry may be produced by first
stnrching them In hot starch and ,hcn
In cold starch. Hot starch should be
applied as hot ss possible, table,
spoonful at a time, and rubbed into
the bosom. After tho starch IL applied,
rub II in vigorously; aud after tho
right side will take no more. rub II In
on tho other side. II tho starch is not
thoroughly rubbed In before tho shirt
Is hung up, tho bosom will blister
when II 10 ironcd. When the shirt Is
dry, make cold starch; TO make which,
dissolve an ounce of gum arabic In a
pint of hot water, strain il aud let IL
cool. Then add an ounce of fine, raw
starch, aud finally the white of ono
egg. Lay the bosom of tho shirt
on board and apply this
starch with sponge, frequent
ly stirring tho starch while
doing so. Wrap tho bosom up in a
cloth, and in about an hour iron II.
Some laundresscs rub the bosom care
fully with cloth wrung out In boil
ing water to equalize the starch be-
fore they begin to iron. The best
cover for bosom board is soft fan
mel, aud tho best bosom board is ono
with clamps on tho four corners to
hold tho bosom firmly In place. Be-
fore beginning to iron most laund-
rcsscs lay n thin cloth over tho bosom
of the shirt and pass the iron over it
once. They then remove IL and usc
polishing iron vigorously. A good
polishing iron will cost from dollar
to two dollars, aud in the proper use
of the polishing iron lies the secret of
the gloss rather than in any special
method of making starch. different
laundrics using different methods. A
teaspoonful of Kerosene or piece OF
wax should be added to every quart of
boiled starch to prevent 1t from stick
ing to the iron.-[Yankce Blade.
