It Will Be Found Most Satisfactory to
Remove All Acid Flavor-Rinse
Thoroughly and Soak for Four
or Five Hours.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
Some fermented and salted vege-
tables like cucumbers, are eaten raw;
others, like cabbage (sauerkraut), are
usually cooked. In general the fer
mented and salted products may be
prepared for the table in much the
same manner as the fresh vegetables
except that before being cooked they
should be soaked in fresh water for
several hours or longer, If necessary
to remove the salt, the water Deng
changed several times. In some cases
IT may be necessary also to change
the water once or twice during the
boiling of the sailed vegetables. In
this one should be guided by taste.
TIE prepare the fermented or salted
corn for the table, rinse it thoroughly
and soak for four or five hours, chang
ing the water frequently. In general
IL will be found more satisfactory to
remove practically all the acid havor
from the fermented corn. After soak
ing, place the corn in cold water ana
bring to boil, pour off the water, add
fresh cold water, bring to boil again,
and cook until tender. The cooked
salted or fermented corn may be used
In many ways. The following recipe
for corn chowder is recommended by
household specialists Of the United

sugar. Compressed. dry. or liquid
yeast may be used for this. This mix
ture is similar to a soft batter, and
after the first rising the remainder of
the flour, the shortening, and any 9TH
er desired ingredients are added. 1t is
then kneaded until of the proper con-
sistency and smoothness.
Decreasing Time Of Process.
The sponge process usually requires
less yeast than the straight-dough
method, because Of the softer con-
sistency of the mixture which favors
the growth of the yeast, and also be-
cause 1t is generally given more time.
However, by using larger or smaller
amounts of yeast one may shorten or
engthen the time required for rising.
In similar way the straight-dough
process may be shortened or length-
ened by increasing or decreasing the
amount of yeast used. Great care
should be taken with sponge or
dough which stands a long tme-as
the overnight straight dough or the
overnight sponge-to keep 1t much
cooler than when the quicker methods
are used. since the former have
preater chance of becoming sour.

No other single article of food is as
frequently placed on the table or takes
as prominent place in the average
diet as bread. In some form or other
1t is served at practically every meal,
and many times is the chief article.
Properly balanced with milk, butter
fruits, vegetables. eggs, cheese or a
little meat, bread may well form a
considerable part OF our daily food.
Bread and other cereal products are
also among the least expensive of our
foods.
AS II occupies so prominent place
In the diet. bread ought certainly to
be well made, well baked, and prop
erly cared for. Moreover, any girl or
woman who desires to be known as a
really good cook, will wish to excel
particularly in bread making. An
Ideal loaf of bread is attractive in
appearance; crust smooth, tender and
golden brown in color; the loaf itself
light and well-rounded on top; the
crumb spongy and tender; and the
whole delicious in flavor.
Methods for Making Bread.
There are two general methods for
making bread, one known as the
straight-dough process and the other
as the sponge process.
In the straight-dough process all the
ingredients are mixed at one time and
the dough is made of the proper con-
sistency before rising. Either COM
pressed or liquid yeast may be used
for this, but not dry yeast.
In the sponge process only half the
total amount of flour is used at first.
