Planning Food for Variety Week

We have rather specialized this
time in old-fashioned dishes. A hot
kidney stew is rather hearty break
fast dish, but occasionally the busy
members of the family, who must
make their weekday breakfast quite
simple, like to have such hearty
dish. Although / have not served
potatoes at this particular breakfast,
I should like to call attention to the
fact that in serving kidney, liver Or
other organs used as foods, it is espe'
cialIy desirable to have potatoes at
least during the day. Potatoes are
so rich in alkaline salts that they are
a help in digesting such hearty meats
- those described.
Corn pudding is served on Monday.
The possibilities OR combining cereals
with fruits are numerous and such
combinations make ideal Summer
desserts. Wheat, "or eXa~'ple, is de-
licious if it is dipped in hot milk to
softer and then served with sliced
fresh fruit or berries or stewed fruit.
Casser lie dishes provide an excel.
lent way of using the second part of
a roast. The veal casserole served on
tiles. Lamb, chicken and beef all lend
themse; es particularly well to COM
bination with vegetables and long.
slow cooking in the casserole.
The lemon tart served at Mondays
dinner is one good example of a pop
ular group oe desserts. Whether
baked in standardized pies or. in
small tarts, filings of the cream and
custard types are especially good in
warm weather. A plain cream pie
is delicious If made of single crust
with a filling of cornstarch custard,
properly sweetened and favored either
with vanilla. caramel or other desired
fiavoring. If chocolate is added to
the cream. we have another variation.
The lemon cream filling used with
these tarts is to be served without a
meringue, E 1ough, of course, lemon
meringue pie or tart is always ia

Will you please let me have a recipe
for chopped creamed spinach? This
was on one of Your menus and |
would like to know how to make it.
S. NJ. /.
To prepare chopped creamed spin
ach, remove the roots, pick over very
carefully and wash in a number of
waters. The spinach should be
washed until the water is absolutely
clear. Place in a saucepan and heat
in it's own juice, increasing the heat
gradually. Boil for about 25 minutes
until tender. Drain. chop very fine.
Reheat and season with pepper, salt
and butter. Prepare a white sauce
made as follows:
One teaspoon butter, one cup scald-
ed milk, one tablespoon flour. one
quarter teaSnOOn salt
Melt the butter. add the -four which
has been mixed with seasonings; stir
until well blended. Pour on gradu-
ally, stirring all the while, the hot
milk. Bring to the boiling point. Let
boil two minutes. This is the proper
tion for each cup of sauce. Prepare
as many cups of the sauce as you may
need for the amount of spinach to be
served. Stir the hot seasoned spinach
into the white sauce and serve at once.
The exact proportions of sauce and
spinach are more or less a matter of
taste. Roughly speaking, one-half cup
of sauce will be required for each
serving.

Avocado.

Avocado has such a pretty sound.
And # surely is most delicious fruit.
few wears ago the avocado, or alii'
gator near, was a luxury to be served
onIv on very special occasions. Like
artichokes, it now more often graces
the vegetable stand.
This is a tropical fruit. native OF
Mexico, but 1t is now cultivated In
Florida and California. The United
states Bureau of Plant Introduction
PROMISES to supply. in the near fu-
lure different varieties of the avocado
which will weld fruit in every month
of the year
1t is stated that the avocado sup
plies not only a remarkably fine quail
ity of fat but a protein about equal TO
that of milk i'm it's nourishing value.
of course this does not mean that the
avocado is a milk substitute. 1t means
that it's protein is of high quality.
The tough, green rind, incloses a
thick yellow pulp. However, the rind
Of some varieties is reddish in color.
But the pulp is thick and has the
consistency of chilled butter. The big
round seed is discarded and the pulp
can be eaten with spoon right from
the shell. Or. the pear can be peeled
and the pulp sliced or cubed or even
mashed and used.
A French dressing may be used or
even just lemon juice and salt for the
salad. The pulp can he mashed. sea

used as a sandwich spread.
The avocado contains > per cent of
protein, per cent of sugar. Is or 20
per cent of highly digestible. emulsified
fat, or as much fat as rich cream con-
tains. 1t is said that the Guatemalan
variety contains as high as 30 per cent
fat The high fat content renders the
avocado a very valuable fat-building
food and when the pears are in sea-
son the price is reasonable.

The vegetable dinners are not
served in the standard form of vege.
table plates or platters. The ,mbina-
ton of dishes is such as to vary the
style of service. For example, on Fri.
day, peas, French fried potatoes.
creamed onions and spinach ring are
all served individually just as at an
ordinary dinner.
Not all of us know the full value
of olives. We should think Of them
as something more than appetizers.
Chopped olives, for example. whether
prepared from lain or tuffed va
rieties, make delicious sandwich filling
and provide an unusual appetiZing
form Of alkaline food. While 1t is
true that ripe olives are more rourish-
ing, even the salt olives which have
introduced so many more or less
formal meals should be looked upon
as a food rather than as merely a
relish.
