Cool Afternoons Suggest

Something like this:

IL dried apricot halves
u cup brown sugar
6 tablespoons butter
4 cup graduated sugar
2 eggs
u cup milk
2 cups -four
4 teaspoons baking powder
n teaspoon salt

with water and allow to soak for
several hours. Drain thoroughly.
Place one apricot half in each well
buttered muffin pan hollow side up,
add teaspoon brown sugar and "
teaspoon butter. Cover with batter
made as follows: Cream the re-
naming 4 tablespoons of butter
add the graduated sugar and mix
well. Add the eggs, one at time
beating after each addition. Add

Fancy Biscuits
Made At Home

Biscuits for the family or COM
pany always makes a great hit.
There is really no reason why
people feel that they have to eat
out in order to get the delicious
hot breads that good restaurants
serve. Every housewife can have
them right in her own home.
Maybe not exactly the same thing,
but something equally if not more
delicious. Here is one to try
some time that is sure to bring a
new hat.
PIMENTO CHEESE BISCUITS

board, cut with small Toured
cutter. and place on CREASED baking

For Afternoon Tea

An afternoon tea doesn't
really require hours of prepara-
ton, nor for that matter does
it require a lot of various foods.
A simple cake, cinnamon toast
or something a little novel, ac-
companied by a cup of tea is
sufficient. Here is the novel
touch:
BANANA BREAD
2 eggs, well beaten
l cup sugar
l teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons Sour milk
IL cup butter
8 ripe bananas
2 cups flour
l teaspoon soda
Sift flour and measure. Add
level teaspoon soda and sift
three times. Cream sugar and
butter. mash bananas and add.
Beat eggs well and add to mix
ture. Add flour and sour milk
and bake in loaf pan Il to l
hour in a slow oven (3250 F.).

Differences In Taste

In Preparing Recipes

Disgusting the fine flavor of an
egg plant is something that some
housewives have to do regardless
of whether they like to or not. An
egg plant is just one of these
things whose delicate flavor isn't
properly appreciated by some peo-
pie, therefore, if egg plant is to be
served it must be dressed up in
fine clothes and set out with gay
colors. The following recipe is
one that will win the applause of
all:
BAKED EGGPLANT WITH
CHEESE

Grated Parmesan cheese

Peel the eggplant, slice it, and
sprinkle well with salt to extract
the bitter juices. Let stand hour.

spoons of butter in large frying
pan, and fry the slices until they
are a light brown on both sides.
Cover the bottom of baking dish
with the slices. pour a little of the
Italian tomato sauce over them,
and sprinkle lightly with Parmesan
cheese; put in the remainder of the
eggplant slices moistened with the
rest of the sauce. then sprinkle
more cheese over all. Dot the
cheese sparingly with butter and
bake in a moderate oven n hour.

Scrambled Eggs For
Every Day

One could scramble eggs every
day for a month with variations
and never repeat the same style
twice. Just a little of this or

LUCULLUS
Put in a casserole one ounce
butter, and three truffles cut in
dice about one-eighth inch square.
Heat through, and then add eight
beaten eggs, and one-half cup of
cream. Season with salt and
pepper, then scramble, and dish
up on a china platter.

cream and a piece Of fresh butter.
SCRAMBLED EGGS, BUILT
Peel six heads of fresh mush-
rooms, slice very thin, and put in
a sauce pan with one ounce of

add twelve beaten eggs, one cup
Of cream, two ounces sweet but

Left Over Baked Ham
In Two Of Many Uses

When we serve a baked ham,
we can nearly always be certain
of having goodly amount left
over. This we use for excellent
sandwiches, either plain or grilled
for lunch the next day. Then we
skip a day and serve the remains
in either of these two ways:
DREAMED SHREDDED HAM
11s ounces shredded cold ham
1 tablespoon minced pimento
" cups thin cream sauce
l tablespoon chopped olives
II teaspoon salt and pepper,
mixed
Add ham and seasonings to
cream sauce. Serve on toast or
in patty cases. Serves six.
HAM OUTLETS
2 cups minced cold ham
l cup thick white sauce
Few grains cayenne
1 tablespoon minced green pep
pers
Add sauce to ham, then add
seasonings. Spread on a plate to
cool. Shape in the form of cut
let's, dip in crumbs, egg the
crumbs again and fry in deep fat
at a temperature of $50 F. for liz
minutes. Drain, garnish with green
leaves. Serves four.

cookies IN wonderful condition,
just as fresh and nice as the day
they were made. Then too, we
must consider the children who
will be home from boarding school
or just staying home from day
school for their vacation. 1t seems
that no matter how much they eat
at meal time, there is still an un-
filed cavity that must be filled
during the afternoon. How we
thank our foresight at such time
when all we need do is open the
cookie jar and produce milk and
glasses for the children's afternoon
snack. We must not only consider
the children however. there are the
men who are quite tempted by
home made cookies now as when
they too were children. A great

Sandwiches Make
Possible Steak and Onions
For Large Group

In these days of many inven-
tons and expert methods of cook
ing it is possible for woman
to invite a great number of people
in for a steak and onion supper.
All this goes back to that ia
nous person The Earle of Sand
witch who invented the most wide
ly eaten dish there is. It is a
far cry from the sandwich we
eat today, to the original but the
principle is the same and in this
way, we serve our steak and
onions for a large group.
STEAK AND ONION
SANDWICHES
Slice Bermuda onions thin and
separate into rings, Soak in
milk for ten minutes, then dredge
in flour Fry in deep hot fat
until nicely Drowned, then drain
on absorbent paper. Meanwhile
spread the untoasted side of the
bread with butter which has been
blended with prepared mustard.
Use l tablespoon of mustard for
each half cup of butter. Broil
tenderloin steaks on each side
until tender. Sprinkle with salt
and pepper. Keep the toast and
onions hot in hot covered dishes
until all the ingredients are ready
to assemble.
To serve, top each piece of but
tered toast with tenderloin, then
heap with fried onion. Or bring
the foods to the table in covered
dishes and let your guests assem-
