Culinary Hints

Pineapple and peaches combine beau
tifully for choice jam. These amounts
will prove helpful: Choose ripe, fine
peaches; weigh them, allowing three
quarters Of a pound of sugar to every
five pounds of the fruit Shred the nine
apple very fine. Cook the combined
fruits slowly together. stirring well
from the bottom for nearly an hour be-
fore adding the sugar. About fifteen
minutes more will be needed to com
plete the cooking. Remove all sour,
that rises. Add brandy, II desired. In
the proportion of one gill to every quart
Of the Jam. While hot place in Jelly
glasses or pint jars.
This recipe is one TO be treasured
since the process causes the flavor OF
the pineapple to be retained more than
is commonly the case: Chop the pine
apple rather fine, after having pared
and sliced it, and cut 1t in strips. Al
low an equal weight OF sugar and let
them stand well mixed over night
closely covered. In the morning cook
until transparent. skimming when nee
essary. Take out the fruit and reduce
the syrup; then return the fruit and
stir together and put in jelly glasses.
Cover when cold.
