BAKED RHUBARB,
cePvRiohrEh

This is more economical than stew
ed rhubarb because it requires less
sugar. Peel the stalks of red rhubarb,
if it can be obtained cut into inch
lengths and place them in stone
crock. Add one part sugar to every
two parts of the rhubarb, arranging
them in alternate layers and using no
water. Place the crock in a pan of
hot water. covered and set in the oven
to bake until the pieces are clear.
This is delicious when used in a
souflle, but more sugar must be added
If one likes it very sweet. 1t should
be pressed through a sieve and three
eggs should be allowed to each pint
of pulp. Beat the yollks very light
and add the rhubarb, mix well and
fold in the whites beaten to a stiff
froth. Turn into a. well-buttered dish
and bake in quick oven for about
half an hour. When the top cracks
open the dish is ready to serve.
