Fresh Products and Proper
Cooking Mean Everything to
Modern Housewife.
HINTS FROM FOOD LEAFLET
Every Cook Can Do Much to Make
Vegetables Appetizing and Attrac-
tive by Proper cooking-over-
cooking Is Bad.


squash, summer cabbage, caulif1ower,
carrots, Brussels sprouts ard spinach
as well as cool green cucumbers, and
juicy tomatoes-these are some of the
good things that the late vegetable plot
has to offer as reward for the hours
of work spent upon it earlier in the
season.
Who, that has the privilege of en-
joying the vegetables at their best,
fresh from the garden, will not say
that the vegetable garden is worth the
trouble it costs? No one not accus-
toned to fresh vegetables cooked with
in few hours after they are gathered
really knows how good vegetables can
be.
Points From New Food Leafiet.
Every cook, however, whether she
starts with vegetables fresh from her
garden or whether she buys the best
she can procure on the market can do
much to make her vegetables attractive
and appetizing by proper cooking The
United States department of agricul-
ministration in United States food
leafiet No. 16 give the following point
ers In regard to the cooking of vege-
tables:
Vegetables just out of the garden
taste best when simply cooked
steamed, boiled or baked-and served
with little salt, butter milk or cream.
Often a heavily seasoned sauce covers
up the more desirable vegetable flavor.
Overlooking of vegetables impairs
their flavor. Very delicate flavors are
destroyed while vegetables with
strong flavors, such as cabbage or
onions, become disagreeably strong If
cooked too long. Overlooking also de-
stroys the attractive color of some
vegetables.
Cook summer vegetables as soon
after they are gathered as you can in
order to preserve the flavor If they
must be kept over, keep In the icebox
or some other cool place.
Let wilted vegetables soak In cold
water to freshen them. If vegetables
must stand after pairing, covering with
cold water will prevent whiting and
discoloration.
Before cooking, put head vegetables
and green's in cold water for an hour,
with one tablespoonful of vinegar to
remove insects. then wash very care
fully.
Save Water for Soup Stock.
Drain all boiled vegetables as soon
as tender-they become soggy If they
are allowed to stand undrained after

Don't throw away leftover skim
milk, says the United States depart

food and every drop of it should be

a thoroughly cooked vegetable, finely
chopped, mashed or put through a
sieve, and salt to taste. Thicker the
milk with the -four as for milk gravy
