Some New Recipes Highly Recommended by Famous Chefs

fruits and vegetables in general legumes, with
the exception Of peanuts and lentils belong
TO the group of foods needed in the diet for the
purpose Of preventing an excess of acid in the
system: a condition that might arise from
too exclusive use of meat, eggs and cereals
Next to rice one of the most valuable articles
OF diet is legumes. Ten cents spent for dried
Iegumes will obtain from two to three times as
much protein as if spent for meat at an aver
age price.
Many experiments have been tried with
legumes. and they have proved that more Of the
protein of the legumes is utilized when they
form part of a mixed diet and are partaken OF
moderately. tnan when they are eaten alone
day after day. 1t is much wiser, therefore. not
to make them the sole article of diet in
meal But when combined with other foods.
such as green vegetables and fruits they are
surprisingly effective. Three points, however
must be observed if the housekeeper wishes to
secure the greatest utilization Of the protein in
any variety OF dried Iegumes CD If possible
the skins must be removed otherwise this may
cause the formation of gas in the intestnes).
60 Thorough cooking in soft water. 10 which
a small amount of soda has been added. and
90 their moderate use IN combination with
other foods in a meal.
FAXED CRACKERS AND CHEESE.
NINE or 10 butter crackers or soda crackers.
~ cupfuls Of hot milk. whole or skinned,
cupful Of grated cheese. 4 teaspoonful of salt.
This is more quickly prepared than the pre-
ceding recipe. but as the milk likely TO curdle,
it has not so good consistency.
Soak the crackers in the milk; place them in
a buttered baking dish in alternate layers with
the cheese; pour the remaining milk over them
and bake This dish may be covered with
buttered crumbs.
