CUBAN CUISINE.
Pepper and OIL Play nm Important
Part I'm All Spanish
Dishes.

The commercial exodus to Cuba is
apt to result in familiarizing Ameri-
cans with bona fide Spanish cooking,
something seldom seen in this coun-
try. Oil and pepper are the two things
that especially characterize the Cas-
tilian cuisine. One of the favorite
dishes in Cuba is "tasajo," which is
simply dried meat, cooked with toma-
toes. red peppers and onions. "Tripa
a la Andaluza" is another preparation
frequently seen. AS the name indi-
Gates, the basis is boiled tripe, which
is cooked with beans and potatoes. and
always served with the small rcd
Spanish sausage known as "butafarra
Catalina" a similar sausage, only
black, is known as "butafarra AS
toriana." Chile con carne," which
everybody eats, is nothing more than
a thick stew Of beef (carne) and beans
seasoned with chiles. Spanish "tor-
tillas" are corn cakes favored with
red peppers, and differ from the Mex
lean tortila in that the latter, when
properly made, are rolled in chopped
vegetables. A salad, Ia Espanola, is
prepared Of lettuce and celery, with
n few sliced tomatoes and peppers.
Served with French dressing 10 is very
good. The Spanish soups are as q rule
"a little too heavy for the American
taste. which runs more toward the
consommc. They are thick dococtions,
full of vegetables. and look frightiully
greasy. Soup, however. does not have
the important role among the Span
iards that it plays in French domestic
economy, and is an article of sec
ondary Impotence. The dishes
named are pretty apt to appear ere
long on home menus, and it is inter
esting to know in advance what they
arc composed of.--New Orleans Times
