the latter are better in plum pud.
dings, fruit cakes, etc.
The muscats also come in clusters
with seeds and are very good for
dessert or as a substitute for candy.
Because only large, perfect punches
of grapes are used, the cluster
raisins are more expensive.
Figs Valuable Addition
For centuries, figs have been rec.
ognized as a valuable addition 10
the diet, but never before have they
been so generally available. There
are two types of commercial figs
the pressed and the pulled. Pressed
figs have had some of the syrup
removed and are consequently not
so expensive, for syrup of figs, into
which much of this syrup Is put
is used extensively in the manu-.
facture of medicines and brings a
very high price. Pulled figs are
the whole fruit dried with all their
natural syrup. The skin of the fig,
is usually bright green turning to
amber as it is dried. although a few
of the figs grown in the Southern
States are black or deep purple.
Dried peaches and apricots are
from fruit ripened on the tree and
have good flavor. They are less
expensive than canned fruit and
should be used often in low cosr
menus. There are no standardized
market grades and they are usually
sold loose by the pound. There is
an excellent brand of partially
peeled dried peaches sold in two
pound cartons.
Dates Candy Substitute
Most of the dates used today ars
imported, although few very
large high-grade ones are grown
in California and Arizona. Unlike
other fruits, dates are dried on the
tree before they are gathered. Like
figs and raisins. dates may De eaten
directly from the package without
any preparation and are an excel
lent substitute for candy.
