made with nuts. With vegetables and
fruits there are many combinations
with nuts which make most palatahle
dishes. The following are quite worth
trying:
Egg Plant With Peanut Stuffing.-
Boil the egg plant until partly cooked,
scoop out the inside leaving a wall
half an inch thick. Chop fine the part
taken out and mix with equal parts OF
bread and peanuts. Fill the shells and
bake half an hour.
Boiled and mashed chestnuts are
good used as stutfing for fowl or any
game. Cook them, after blanching in
the broth from the game, until tender.
Drain, mash, add a spoonful Of minced
ham, a half-cupful of bread crumbs, a
seasoning of salt and pepper and a
dash of vinegar. Mix and moisten
with melted butter, using four table.
spoOnfuls; add the beaten yOlks Of two
eggs, and stuff the bird several hours
before baking so that the meat will
be we'll seasoned.
Mashed, seasoned chestnuts are de-
liciOus served with beefsteak as a veg
etable. Serve, beating we'll, to make
the mixture light.
!. Nut sandwiches, using pecsns, pea
nuts, walnuts, hickory nuts, and In
fact any sweet nut, minced and mixed
with cream, a bit of salt and spread
on buttered graham bread, are good
enough for anybody.
Brussels sprouts are often served
with nuts. Cook q quart of brussels
sprouts in sailed water. drain and put
into a saucepan with two tablespoon
fuls OF lard; add quarters of a
pound of cheStnuts which have been
cooked until soft; simmer for half
hour until well seasoned. Serve with
