In making the chicken soup for
the luncheon menu, be sure to have
the soup clear and very little thick
ening. No thickening at all is bet
ter, and chicken broth made strong
is palatable when a thin soup. A
little sugar is permitted in the
lemonade, but only enough to make
1t palatable.
When the hamburger steak is be-
ing prepared for the dinner menu,
forget the old habit OF putting bread
with it. An egg, salt, pepper. pap
rika, and a little onion II desired,
makes a grand hamburg ball.
This should be pan or oven boiled.
and cooked fairly slowly so as not
to tougher it. Use the juice from
the steak on the baked potato in
stead of butter, then you will be
getting the. full flavor from the
meat and keeping within bounds at
the same time.
Cook the asparagus and beans In
some Of the chicken broth, and you
will say "yum-yum." French dress
ing accompanies the salad, as usual,
with a minimum Of oil.
Flavor the baked pear with lemon
juice and a minimum of sugar. Also
a little cinnamon will improve the
case, or any spice flavor preferred
provided it is in moderation. Spices
and highly spiced things are taboo.
