Pantry Palaver

Chefs Hints-Beef that turns from
dark red to very bright red after it is
cut does so because of exposure to the
air, and not because of any change of
quality.
Greens-When cooking greens place
in an uncovered saucepan. Cook over
a very slow fire with just the water
that clings to the leaves from washing.
To pan greens melt fat in skillet,
add the chopped greens. Cover to
keep in the steam and cook slowly
until done. Sprinkle with a small
amount of flour, mix well and add
milk or cream and seasonings.
Long boiling in much water in
creases the vitamin destruction and
loses much of the minerals.
Adding soda will heighten the color
of green vegetables, but will increase
the loss of vitamin G and B1.

For Better HOmemaking

Furniture that is worth repainting
is worth undermining also. Remove
outdated handles on dressers, replace
with modern ones. Gingerbread scrolls
can sometimes be removed leaving a
plain smooth surface. Throw away
the frame and hang the mirror above
the dresser separately.
Modernize old tables and chairs by
lowering the legs.
