My belief is that the best thing
we can do today is to plug along
quietly, letting each day wrestle
with its own problems. But
whether that is the best thing or
not, it is what we are going to do.

not plentiful, so the housekeeper

depend on what the poultry man
calls fowl" for her family dim
ner.
If these chickens are not more
than ten or twelve months old,
they can be cooked in numerous
ways that produce we'll favored.
delicious dishes. Long. slow cook
ing is imperative il the meat is to
be tender and moist. Consequent
ly. any method such as stewing,
braiSing or casseroling can be
used.
The prolonged cooking usually
required TO make the flesh tender
is apt TO develop a strong flavor.
To prevent this, let the fowl stand
in cold salted water for one hour
before cooking.
Low Temperature Important
Be sure TO maintain d low tenn
perature throughout the entire
cooking period. Begin to cook the
fowl at low temperature and keep
the heat moderate. Too often old
poultry is hard and dry even after
cooking several hours because it
was started to cook at too high a
temperature. Whether it is to
be roasted or stewed, the adyan-
tages of a low temperature must
be remembered.
Quick surface browning improves
the looks and taste of casserole
dishes and does not affect the ten
derness of the meat, for the heat
rails to penetrate.
Chicken stew is an economical
dish and generally popular. The
liquor in which the chicken is
cooked is always rich and flavor
some and makes delicious gravy.
