EFF We have been little eXtravagant IN
our pumpSln and mince pies, not to men
II ton the Christmas plum pudding, natu-
rally we shall eeel that our New Years dessert
must be Of the wartime" variety. The thrifty
housewife plans for the most sayory dessert
she can prepare, minus any considerable guam
tity Of eggs, butter or sugar.
Many will goomily shake their heads and
sav: 81 can't make any good dessert that
lacks the above materials Oh, yes. you can.
MANY times ! have used from four to SIX eggs
I'm puddings and pies, and now ] cheerfully use
one or two, serve it with a smile. and never
m apology. As for butter, long ago l found
that vegetable fats and oils could easily take
its place at half the cost, and as for sugar
while | admit like it better, ! use molasses
instead, and only one or two tablespoonsful OF
sugar.
But how do get the good havors without
the rich foods? Hero is the secret: Careful
mixing, after very careful measuring--and
these are followed by careful cooking.
Cooked puddings naturally fall into two
classes--.baked and steamed. For speed, the
former, but to bring out favors TIC long slow
sscaming is preferable. The steamed puddings
also have the advantage over baked in tnat
they can be prepared ahead Of time--usually
the day beforehand then reheated or made
early in the day Of the meal for which they
arc to be used If the hostess is cook and
waitress as well, all preparations made in ad-
vance add greatly TO the ease with which she
can play hostess.
Personally, any food burned or even scorched
slightly is the most humiliating thing to me. 1t
seems so shiftess on my part Just now it is
really crime, so / prefer 20 steam rather
than bake my pudding. Less gas, too, is con-
sumed, as tho steaming can be done over
very low fire. The ireess cooker is excellent
for steaming purposes.
As for utensils, there are the od-fashioned
steamer and pudding bags Of our mothers
day, the ever handy coffee can. or anv can
that has a tight lid, and the double boiler. l
use tho latter in preference 10 either Of the
other methods, unless / am making very
large pudding that needs 90 be turned while
Steauling. In using cans, prefer two small
ones. like half-pound baking powder tins.
rather than onc-pound coffee cans. Less time
is needed for cooking and Il is more economi-
cal in serving. When any is left, the amount
can easily be replaced in small cans. Serve
both at the table, for the hostess is like the
host. They both want plenty placed before
them-novcr scanty supply.
Just as important as the pudding itself is
the sauce 10 use with it. As the prices for the
ingredients formerly used arc almost prohibit
tive, We again must choose thoughtfulIy and
carefully Tho recipes for sauces have
chosen arc very good, not expensive, quite as
nutritious and less harmful than the richer
ones. They viii follow the pudding recipes

oleo and sprinkle the bottom and sides

mould loosely with pieces Of stale cake,

. 4 CHAFING DISH WATCH-NIGHT SUPPER
Bv VIRGINIA CARTER LEE

NJ MAY be a melancholy thing to watch the
old year die, but the eXhilaration Of ush-
~ ering in the new year is as imperishable
as hope itself
And in one way our modern custom of having
a cheerful party on New Years Eve is much
more in accordance with the gay courage Of
oar modern outlook on life than was the SOL
emnty Of the old watch night prayer meeting,
which seemed not only to mourn for the sins
and sorrows of the last year, but to anticipate
worse TO come.
There is good reason to welcome The year
that is now coming in with friendship and
good cheer. The world trouble has made for
world understanding and cordiality. 1t is a
time for taking account Of stock and for
brave and hopeful looking forward to better
things.
But the New Years entertainment this year
should be of the simplest. Refreshment FOR
the New Years party there must be- but in
stead Of the elaborate midnight supper Of
more careless and extravagant days, try TIE
pleasant informaity of the chafng dish, ac-
companied by tray Of sandwiches and the
steaming coffee percolator.
Lay the table very simply with the coffee
percolator at one end lanked by a generous
pitcher Of cream. Directly opposite, on large
tray, set the chafng dish, filled ready for
lighting and surrounded by bowls filled with
the ingredients needed for whatever dish you
have in mind. Spoons and utensils should be
laid ready to hand, also ali condiments.
In cooking with chafng dish it is well TO
remember that it consists of two parts, the
upper pan or the "blazer," as it is called, and
the lower receptacle for holding the hot water.
When quick cooking is desired the blazer may
be used alone. When making most Of the
sauces this is The better plan. Then add the

possible, or kept hot in double boiler and well
stirred before serving.
