Mobilization in
The Kitchen

Can and can now, says a bulletin
from the National Emergency Food
Garden Commission of Washington.
Only well matured onions should be
used for drying Remove the tops,
roots and the outside papery covering,
then slice in one-eighth inch pieces and
dry as soon as possible. Another way
is to blanch in boiling water for FIVE
minutes after slicing and then dry in
thin layers as above. Leeks may be
handled in the same way as onions, eX-
cept the strips are a little thicker.
For dried potatoes, sweet and Irish,
use only sound, mature ones. Wash
and boil or steam until nearly done.
Peel, run through meat grinder or
ricer and spread on trays in thin layer
until brittle. Toasting slightly after
drying will improve flavor Another
method is to cut in one-quarter inch
slices, instead of mincing, the rest of
the process being the same.
Pumpkins and squash should be
sound and we'll ripened. Cut crosswise,
peel and remove all seeds and soft
parts. Cut in one-quarter inch slices
and dry on trays or on string. If de-
sirable, the vegetable may be cut into
one-half inch strips, peeled, and the
seeds and soft parts removed, then
blanched in boiling water for three
minutes, after which the strips are
dried as above.
Be sure TO condition all dried prod
ucts by pouring from one box to an
other daily for several days, and then
store in moisture proof container.

termined to make for his home
