Kitchen Hints
Tempting Menus

by Sister Mary
There Is one detail in cake mix
ing that many cooks overlook.
Keep the mixing spoon scraped
cleani After the addition of any
ingredients necessitating stirring
scrape the spoon clean and beat
in the mixture that may have
chung to the spoon.
This very little thing is often
the cause Of an unexplainable
heavy streak through a cake. The
batter has not been mixed smooth
ly and evenly as the ingredients
were added.
Menu For Tomorrow
BREAKFAST Stewed rhubarb,
broiled bacon. fried eggs. graham
gems. coffee.
LUNCHEON-Tomatoes in rice
border, toasted mufins, marmalade.
DINNER - Broiled porterhouse
steak, mashed potatoes. buttered
cauIifower, head lettuce with COM
bination dressing. March pudding,
coffee.
My Own Recipes
The tomato dish in the luncheon
menu is an Italian connection
known as Rice a la Tomato" The
Italians are very clever in the use
Of cheese and onion in their sauces
While the tomato sauce of the av-
erage American cook may be well
salted and peppered and beautifully
smooth, 1t lacks that indescribable
something found in the Italian made
sauce.
Tomatoes In Rice Border
1 cup rice. l cup strained to-
mato juice. 2 tablespoon bread
crumbs. 1 tablespoon grated cheese,
1 small onion. 4 tablespoons butter,
1 egg, l egg yolk, 2 cups milk, salt
and pepper.
Wash rice and put in a large
saucepan of boiling sailed water.
Boil rapidly 6 or Z minutes. Drain.
Scald milk in another stewpan, add
rice, season with salt and pepper
and cook gently until the milk is
absorbed. Add half the butter. the
whole egg and stir over the fire till
well mixed. Pile on a platter or
chop plate in the form of a circular
or oval border. Smooth over with a
wet hot knife, brush with the egg
