PANTRY

AT this time of year, when new potatoes
are an expensive treat, when old potatoes
are soggy and heavy and when sweet po-
tatoes are moist and somewhat tasteless,
twice cooked potatoes are best. The dou-
bic cooking gives flavor and texture which
are not to be found in the once cooked
potato.
Some housewives think that sweet po
tatoes ought always to be twice cooked
unless they are baked, which process dries
them and gives them taste. Sweet pota-
toes, even the best of them, have a
tendency to sogginess, and two bookings
help to overcome this tendency.
To prepare sweet potatoes of the late
season so that they are delicious bake

But we get in a hurry, swallow our

becomes unnatural and perverted.
