The liquid in which the vegetables are
cooked is rich in soluble matters that
are valuable in the body and should
never be thrown away but served
with the vegetable as Il sauce or add

In cooking any of the succulent
green vegetables, salt should not be
added until they are ready to be sea-

of the following ways of preparing
