SOUR CREAM DRESSING;
Re: MASCULINE VOICE."
(Thanks to Mrs. F. A.F.
Washington.)
Some time ago Mrs. T. A. c. of
Washington asked the Clearing
House readers for recipe for sour
cream dressing for cole slaw.
I am an extremely busy person,
therefore do not have time to read
the papers often. But, as I have
not seen an answer to her request, I
am happy to accommodate. I have
used and marked 20. K" both of
the following.
Taken from The Evening Star
some years ago:
Sour Cream Dressing: One-half
teaspoon salt, % teaspoon pepper, /
teaspoon paprika, l tablespoon tar
ragon vinegar, Y cup sour cream,
l tablespoon chopped chives or
minced onions.
Mix seasonings, add vinegar and
stir until well blended. Add cream
and beat until mixture thickens.
Add chives or onion Yield, about
y cup. Note: Sweet cream may
be used if vinegar is increased.
Taken from Good Housekeeping
Cook Book" l cup sour cream, 2
tablespoons vinegar, / tablespoon
lemon juice. teaspoon sugar, l
teaspoon salt, pepper, paprika,
mustard, celery seeds, l canned
pimiento.
Beat cream until stiff, then add
the vinegar, lemon juice. sugar, salt,
pepper, paprika and mustard to
taste. Beat all together until very
thick. Add a few celery seeds. and
the pimiento cut in pieces, to give
variety. Serve on cucumbers or cold
slaw.
| A gentleman criticized the Clear
ing g-House recipes in your column
not long ago, for their extrava-
gance, especially in wartime. r
was interested that it took a MAN
to make that observation, for it
conceded exactly with my own
sentiments.
| Perhaps it did not occur to the
gentleman that most of these recipes
are in response to specific requests.
And that most housewives plan their
cooking to meet the wishes of their
families, especially of the husbands
and men folks.
Editors Note: Thanks, too,
Mrs. F. A. F., for your recipes for
oatmeal DaterS.)
HERE'S THAT MAN AGAIN!

To get two servings from one egg
add about tablespoonfuls of milk
to the egg, beat lightly until blend
ed and top the mixture in the
creased pan with bread crumbs to
cover. In this way you get two serv-
ings from each egg. richer in food
value and more nourishing.
II you can print the above, it may
be helpful to the economical house
wives, If not to the fancy cooks
who fail to realize that you cannot
be economical ALL of the time If
you are extravagant or wasteful
SOME of the time.
The above saving hint about eggs
is original $50 far as I know; it is
not copied from any source. All
cooks are NOT woman "copiers."
