WITH COFFEE FLAVOR
VARIOUS PREPARATIONS THAT
MAY BE RECOMMENDED.
Aside From Its Use as a Beverage
There Are Number of Ways in
Which Delicious Bean May
BE Employed.

Coffee is flavor always at the call
lied on when fruits fail. The medici-
nal qualities of coffee are due to its
aromatic essential oil-and it is that.
of course, which gives the flavor. AS
the roasting brings out the flavor of
the oil, the roasting should be care
fully done. When using coffee for
flavoring make it by percolating boil
ing water through the freshly ground
beans.
Coffee JelIy.-Soak an ounce of
gelatin in a cupful of cold water and
dissolve in three cupfuls of boiling
water. Add two cupfuls of sugar and
two of strong coffee, and strain into
a mold. Harden and serve with
whipped cream, garnished with mac
aroons.
Coffee Mousse.-Boil a cupful of
coffee and two table9poonfuls of sugar
together, and slowly pour it over two
egg yolks. stirring all the time. Strain
when cold and add two cupfuls of
whipped cream. Pour into a mold and
pack in ice and salt fer three or four
hours. Serve in tall glasses.
Coffee lcing.-Melt two cupfuls of
sugar and boil until it forms a string
from the spoon. Stand the saucepan
in a dish of cold water until the
sugar begins to form on the sides,
and then work in a cupful of strong
coffee, pressing it against the sides
Of the saucepan with spoon. When
the mass graduates it is ready to use
as icing.
Coffee Cake.--Cream half a cupful
Of butter with two cupfuls of sugar
Add half a saltspoonful of cloves and
a tablespoonful each Of mace and CHINA
mon, with cupful of molasses. Beat
for five minutes, and add the creamy
yolks Of three eggs and cupful Of
strong coffee. Then alternately add
five cupfuls of sifted flour and the
whites of three eggs beaten stiff, a
teaspoonful of saleratus dissolved in
hot water. Lastly stir in a quarter
Of pound each of raisins and cur
rants. This will make two loaves. 1t
should be kept covered after it is
baked, as it loses flavor if left I'M
covered.
Coffee Pudding.-Beat four eggs
thoroughly and add five tablespoonful
of sugar and half a teaspoonful of salt
Gradually add two cupfuls of boiling
milk and half cupful of hot coffee
Pour into pudding dish and bake
in pan of water in hot oven. Serve
very cold.
Coffee Creams.--Mix strong coffee
with confectioners' sugar, a little
vanilla, a tablespoonful or two Of
cream and the white of an egg. Add
enough sugar to make stiff cream
mold into balls and put walnut meat
on each side of each ball.

Variety Important.

Variety is most important in arrang-
ing weekly menus. Beef may be one
time served as a pot roast, another
time as roast. Gravies should be
cooked in as great variety of ways
as the likes of the family admit. Vege-
tables are always TO be had in great
variety and may be cooked more ways
than one. OF course, it is not wise
to insist on dishes that are not liked
simply for sake of variety. r
There Is delight in eating well.
served food Hence study the little
details that tend to give neatness and
effect in serving, A bouquet of cut
flowers or growing plant gives BIT
OF gayety to the meal.
Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1915-12-09
Southern Batter Bread.

Two cupfuls white Indian meal, one
Icupful cold boiled rice, three eggs

butter, two and one-half cupfuls OF
milk, one teaspoonful salt. pinch Of
soda. Stir the beaten eggs into the
milk, the meal, salt, butter, and last
lof all the rice. Beat well and bake
quickly in shallow pan. Recipe may
be halved with success.

cupful of sugar and one dozen of
halved peaches for one hour, then pour

Improvad Broom Cover.

Broom covers can be made more
useful by setting double ruffie of the
cotton flannel, fuzzy side out. between
the sides. This protects the covers
80 that they wear much longer, and
is also very helpful In reaching the
corners when busting wall and cell
ings.
