Working Women
Should Eat
For Health

More and more women are forsak-
ing the fireside for outside activities.
War always does this. Men must be
replaced-in business offices, in fac
tories, in all kinds of occupations.
American women can take 1t. They
are unequaled in their alertness and
intelligence, their ability to do a job
we'll If only they wouldn't wreck
themselves doing it! Business women
especially. Too many of them are
highly nervous, are an easy prey to
colds, are prone to breakdowns, both
physical and mental.
Poorly selected food is one reason
and very common one-why bus
iness women start slipping into par
tial health. Coffee and toast break
fasts, hurried luncheons, overly rich
dinners take their toll.
But good meal pattern-and the
will to follow it-can work wonders
in keeping health at high peak
The pattern is simple. its objective
to supply an abundance of minerals
and vitamins. Women who sit at
desks don't require quantities OF
food. They need quantities of min
erals and vitamins in each food eaten
Consider iron, essential in making
good red blood and the mineral in
which most diets are deficient. Un-
refined foods like molasses and
brown sugar. whole grain cereals
and breads will bring up the needed
amount easily and inexpensively
Molasses, for example, is SO rich in
the iron which the body uses that
it is second only to liver, a mere
three tablespoons OF molasses pro-
viding about one third the days
total iron requirement. Oatmeal
whole wheat, cornmeal, rye and SC
on, dried fruits like apricots and
raisins, the green vegetables like
cabbage, LETTUCE and spinach, ano
meat are all good sources.

Corn Custard Is
Unusual Entree
Or Lunch Dish
Delicate Texture,
Subtle Flavor
Intriguing

The popularity of vegetable Gus
tards is approaching that of the nu-
tritious golden milk and egg custard
desserts so popular with grownups
as well as children. So If you
haven't tried one of these tasty veg
table custards for luncheon main
dish or as vegetable for dinner,
you will want to include this corn
custard in your tomorrow's menu.
Vegetable custards combine nour-
ishing fresh milk and eggs and the
added goodness of garden vegetables
chock-full of vitamins and minerals.
Bake the mixture either in one large
casserole or in individual custard
cups or casseroles. If baked in in
dividual custard cups they may be
placed on the serving plate with the
other foods served with the main
course. To add color and contrast
in flavor, top the custard with slices
Of tomato or rings of green pepper
which have been sauteed in butter.
CORN CUSTARD.
2 cups whole kernel corn (about s
ears fresh cut corn.
12 cup water
IL cups milk.

Mullins
Use Applesauce
AS Ingredient
New Tart Apples

To Mixture

Mullins made with fruit are pop
ular hot bread for summertime
menus. And no more delicious
muffin could one want than an APP
plesauce muffin with all the tanta-
lizing flavor of apples in every bite.
Sweet muff1ns combine perfectly
with salad plate lunches or light
warm weather food They double
equally we'll as dessert. The crisp,
generous portion of golden brown
crust gives them an extra share OF
oven-fresh sweetness without using
much of that precious sugar ration.
Muffin making has special warm
weather advantage, for 1t makes
short work Of kitchen time. Mullins
may be mixed and in the oven in
a jiffy. The homemaker whose
family like to eat its mullins with
golden butter or margarine melting
on every crumb has no problem
when she uses double acting bak-
ing powder. She can mix her muf-
fins before dinner and put her
muffin pans in the refrigerator
Then, just before the family Is
ready to sit down at the table, she
can place them in the oven to rise
to feathery heights.

These days we have a new ap-
probation of our supply of kitchen
utensils. With so many different
types available and at such rea-
sonable price 1t was natural that
some of us should become a little
careless about their use and pro-
lection.
Aluminium is practically pre-
cious metal today and a pan that
has been allowed to boil dry and
burn to the melting point cannot
be replaced. There has always been
some misunderstanding about the
proper method for cleaning and
shining aluminium. Cleaning pow
ders should not be used. The pan
should be washed in good suds,
MADE with mild soap, and then
when necessary rubbed with steel
wool. Alkaline cleaning powders
actually eat into metal, although
the results are not always notice.
able at once.
Wooden spoons should be used
when products are cooked in enam-
eled pans, as metal spoons will chip
the glaze. This will also occur if
pans are allowed to boil dry Clean
ing powders may be used safely on
this type of pan. If iron is used,
the pans, after washing. should be
dried thoroughly in the oven or
over low heat. A rusty iron nan
transfers its flavor to food. STAIN
less steel utensils need very little
attention and soapy water will US
ually do the work, but both clean
ing powders and steel wool may be
safely used.
The heatproof glass is particu-
larly easy to clean. A low tempera-
ture should be used for top-of- the
stove cooking. We are likely to keep

whip, and as it thickens, run in the
mixture of horseradish and onion
juice. Make it heavy or thin, as you
like. controlling the degree of consist
ency by the amount of horseradish
and onion Juice. Finish off by adding
a touch of green vegetable coloring,
and you have an interesting dressing
for fish or cucumbers. Made in this
way, you might call it Virgin
Princess" dressing. I know a man
who likes to toss in a tablespoonful
of capers. and he then calls the
dressing "Green-eyed Monster"
OF course, in this dressing you are
pretty much on your own. This is
not a recipe for the amateur. No
fixed amounts of ingredients can
we'll be given. Tastes differ. But
the idea of heavily whipped cream,
favored with horseradish Juice and
onion juice is where you start. From
there on, let your taste give you
guidance!
Now, here is another one: Mig
nonette Sauce" Come oyster season,
a serving of mignonette sauce with
your oysters will turn your best and
cattiest friends green with envy.
Or, should you take a party of
friends to one Of the upper-crust
restaurants, you will gain the ap-
proval and respect of the captain if,
when you order oysters, you will say
land serve mignonette sauce there

Just, then, what is this mignonette
sause? Simplicity itself-very easily
prepared-right in your own kitch-
enette-most, most intriguing.

half a cup of whole white pepper

9. Do not crowd pieces if crust Is
to be retained.
10. ONION: l small onion cut in
half and left in skillet during frying
adds that subtle but special flavor.
IL. FRYING SEVERAL CHICK
EMS: Use two skillets, frying the
meaty pieces in one skillet, and the
less meaty in second skillet. Or fry
only the meaty pieces. Simmer the
less meaty pieces for broth, fricassee,
or cook with rice, noodles, ETC., for
one-diSh meal. Or use the oven
fried method. See methods.
IL. SERVING COLD CHICKEN:
Promptly cool fried chicken on
rack placed over pan to drain. Store
covered in refrigerator until ready to
serve. PICNIC CHICKEN: Prepare
like cold chicken. Wrap individually
If desired. 1t is wise during hot
weather to serve picnic chicken cold
unless it can be reheated, or cooked
at the picnic.
CHICKEN GRAVY.
l. Proportions for non-greasy
gravy; 2 tablespoons of the frying
fat or butter, 2 tablespoons flour, IL
cups chicken stock, milk, or combi-
nation of these.
2. Method: Pour out all frying
fat, then measure back tablespoons
for every 1la cups of gravy desired.
Return the brown crumbs. Measure
2 tablespoons of flour into the skillet.
Cook over low heat, stir until fat
and, flour are blended and frothy.
Add cold liquid, all at once. Cook
stirring constantly until thickened.
broil briskly two or three minutes.
Season to taste with salt and pep
per. Strain if desired. Serve gravy
very hot.
3. Special seasonings that may be
added TO vary the flavor. Add after
the gravy is thoroughly cooked any
of the following:
"a cup sour cream.
Il teaspoon powdered ginger.
Il cup chilli sauce or catsup.
Il TO 12 cup chopped cooked muSh-
rooms.
/ tablespoon finely minced onion.
tablespoon finely minced chives.
l tablespoon finely minced parsley.
4. Emergency gravy: Use canned
creamed soup, diluted or undiluted
according to can directions. To
give it chicken flavor. pour soup into
chicken skillet after excess fat is
removed. Heat thoroughly, stirring
well.

3. COOKING TEMPERATURES:
Cook slowly at moderately low tenn
perature Chicken is a protein food.
Fried chicken should be fork ten
der"
4. GIBLETS (gizzard, heart,
iiver): Simmer gizzard and heart in
seasoned water until tender, about
one hour. Then fry just enough to
brown. Or chop and add to gravy.
Add liver the last 10 minutes of
cooking, since it is a very tender
muscle. Or liver may be fried with
out previous cooking Add it the
last 10 minutes of frying.
5. Snap the joints, which helps to
keep chicken fiat to assure uniform
browning and cooking.
s. COATING not essential, but
helps to keep the juices In and
also helps in the browning. Bread
crumbs, cracker crumbs, corn meal,
flour or mixture of these may be
used. About n cup flour with 81
teaspoon salt will be needed for a
az to 3 pound bird. In using corn
meal less than one-half as much
corn meal as flour should be used,
otherwise crust is objectionably dry
and hard. Avoid a heavy coating,
since it tends to fall from chicken
and it also slows up cooking of
chicken.
7. COOKING FAT: Use any kind
OF unsalted cooking fat. For butter
flavor use about one-third as much
butter as other fat. It is not wise
to use all butter, since it has ten
dency to brown the chicken too
rapidly. Or brush cooked chicken
with melted butter before serving.
8. To avoid spattering, handle
chicken pieces with two long
handled spoons or kitchen tongs in
preference to a fork.
