SISTER MARY'S
B J. e KITCHEN
BY SISTER MARY
NEA Service Writer

GUSTARDS are ideal desserts to
" serve with vegetable dinners.
The main ingredients of every
custard are eggs and milk, two
excellent sources of protein. So
when this factor has been lack
ing in the first part of the meal
the dessert may well supply it.
A perfect custard is not diff
cult to make and is sure to be
liked by every member of the fam
lily. Children who do not like to
drink milk can be given it in this
form. However, custards are
among those simple things which
must be perfect to be enjoyed, and
precautions must be taken in their
making.
Avoid Long Baking
The number of eggs used in
proportion to the amount of milk
determines the consistency of the
custard. The eggs act as the
thickening agent for the milk.
Less than one egg to one cup of
milk will not thicken the milk
enough to make a firm custard.
Individual custards do very well
with this proportion, but large
buildings that are to be unmold-
ed will need more eggs. Soft Gus
tards, commonly called boiled, :"
and actually steamed, are made
with one egg to one cup of milk.
Large puddings should have at
least six eggs to four cups of. milk.
The amount of sugar used In
custards is quite important, too.
Too much sugar will liquify and
settle to the bottom OF cup or
baking dish.
Always bake custard in a
large pan OF hot water and never
let the water boil. The custard
is really "oven poached" rather
than baked. A slow oven, or one
which registers $50 degrees F.
should be used. Do not bake 1t
toe long. either. An overlooked
custard is "weepy" and far from
appetizing.
It's a good idea to scald the
milk before combining it with the

They occupied a two-room suite
on the eighth floor. They origi-
1ially intended TO stay only few

Previously the rooms mad been
reserved for large shoe conven-
ton. The family was requested
TO take another suite and refused,
saying they were settled TO stay
another week.
Finally the copper man said that
he ana his family were going to
the fair, and would be gone about
six hours. He requested that he
be given another suite exactly the
same as the one his family was &C.
cupying and that their belongings
be moved into 1t.
The manager organized Il serv-
ants. A diagram was made OF the
room. An unfinished jig-saw puz-

On the radiator, an open book ON
a bed. half-burned cigar ON the
edge of dresser, pajamas thrown
over a shower rack in the bath

but when the man and his family
returned they entered the same
