proper place in food values they will
no doubt continue to be wasted in
cooking.
The failure of getting good results
from vegetable food may be with the
selection, for vegetables out of season
are neither economical nor satisfac-
tory; the flavor is usually in inverse
ratio to the cost The best of cook
ing and seasoning cannot supply the
lack of flavor.
Vegetables may be crisp and fresh
when brought from the market, but
by careless handling are wilted and
spoiled.
In the cooking of vegetables there
are few things to remember, first
to retain all the mineral matter and
nutriment possible, to soften the cellu-
lose and to develop the flavor, making
them more palatable.
Spinach cooked properly should be
well washed and cooked without the
addition of water or very little. This
vegetable being rich in iron which is
soluble in water, may by being cooked
in a large amount of water be nearly
valueless as a food. This is true of
satisfy, green peas and beans, or, in
fact, any of the delicately favored,
succulent vegetables. The season.
ing is another important item; the fla
vor should never be disguised by sea-
soning Usually butter. pepper anC
salt, not too much, is the best be
cause it is the plainest.
To accomplish these results one
may use several methods; cook the
vegetable whole or in large pieces, tC
cook with the skin on when possible
to cook in as small an amount of wa
ter as possible without burning, tC
serve the water in a sauce with the
vegetable whenever possible, and tc
season after the vegetable has start
ed cooking so that the salt does no
draw out the flavor.

If one arranges to have guests for
luncheon, after having a chicken din

Thus one may entertain without feel

given, as broths may be made from
the bones of the aforesaid chicken for

spaghetti and tomato sauce, thus hav-

A can of corn may be opened and
part of it used as a vegetable with
milk or cream, then a few days later
prepare it with egg, cupful of white
sauce and seasonings of mustard, salt,
worcestershire sauce and pepper into
an escalloped dish, to serve either as
main dish at luncheon or as a vege
