COOKING RICE CHINESE WAY

Do you know how to cook rice !
Honestly, do you! The most common
method seems to be to place . certain
amount Of rice in 4 cooker, shake salt
over it and then pour boiling water
to cover it, then cook till il shows
signs of sticking to bottom Of kettle.
Then we grab q spoon and stir like
the dickens, thereby breaking up the
kernels and causing the finished pro-
duct to resemble dish Of mush-all
mashed up and pulpy.
The following method is said to be
the exact Chinese method of cook
ing rice. However, we can guaran-
tee il is good, because We tried it our.
selves. Take the required amount OF
rice (say I cupful) and wash il well;
and place in a double boiler. Add
cups of cold water in which one teas
poon Of salt has been dissolved. Cover
tightly and set the top part Of the
double boiler on the stove and after
the water comes to boil, cook for 10
minutes. Set the kettle into the
second part Of the double boiler, con-
tanning boiling water and set where
it will keep hot but not boil. In &c
minutes sthe rice will be soft and dry
and not a kernel will be broken.

er and sister-in-law of the groom,

SOME GOOD RULES FOR
MAKING DELICIOUS STEWS

Save every piece of roasted, or
boiled meat and make into q stew, u.s.
ing gravy for part Of the liquid. From
the viewpoint of attraction, this will
gain in value if the stew is made in a
casserole.
Buy inexpensive cuts Of meat to
make stews from.
3+Better flavor and color are OBJ
tanned IL the meat is Drowned in hot
fat or fryings before the liquid is ad-
ded to it.
Cook slowly. II possible usA q
fireless cooker in cooking stews as II
will save fuel. Remove any fat that
may come to the top Of the cooking
meat.
Choose plenty of vegetables,
wisely knowing that the flavor OF
some is better than other swith GER
tain meats. Onions are necessary
with all meats. Turnips and pars-
nips are good with lamb. Tomatoes
improve q beef stew. Sometimes q
tablespoon Of tomato or chill sauce
will give just the piquant favor that
stew needs to take it out of the
ordinary. The usual seasonings are
salt, pepper, paprika, with celery salt
when fresh celery cannot be had.
6-Serve the stew attractively. A
platter is far better for the serving OF
stew with dumplings. In dishing i,
