similar nuts that have a smooth
surface. Not all nuts are blanched
in the same way. You nkow that
when you blanche almonds, you
pour boiling water over the nut
meats and keep them Simmering
for about three minutes Then you
drain off the water and slip the
skins by pressing the blunt end
between your thumb and fore
finger. The kernels should be
spread on absorbent paper and
left to dry over night at room
temperature. Oil tell you about
sailing and roasting them in a
minute. Maybe there's new
point for you0
Now about blanching filbert
kernels and Brazil nuts. The me-
thod suggested by iss Inez Eek
blad, acting extension nutrition
list, is to prepare a I've solution,
using two level tablespoons gram
ulated I've to a gallon of water.
You heat this to boiling. Tie the
nut kernels loosely in a cheese
cloth and lower them into the I've
solution. It will take from one to
two minutes for the skins to
loosen.
Then take them out of the I've
solution and wash them to remove
surplus I've. Slip off the skins
while nuts are still warm. Then
wash them again in cold water
leave them to dry on absorbent
paper overnight, just as you did
with the almonds. If you like q
slick look, polish the blanched
dried nuts with a cloth. Now that
is the method for Brazil nuts and
filbertS.
Well, now that your almonds

like the roasted nuts better in
nutbread. cakes and cookies. Most
folks like them sailed for nibbles
Better salt them if you're going to
use them for ice cream or candy
You may not have the fat for
deep fat frying, but that's consid-
cred the way if YOU want the very
best flavor. But the oven or fry
ing pan method gives delicious re
suits with little fat. For a cup OF
nutmeatS put two teaspoons OF
cooking oil or melted vegetable
table fat in your frying pan-just
enough to coat the kernels.
Let's take pecans and English
walnut meats first. Shake a cup
of nutmeats in the fat in the fry
ing pan to coat them, heat them
over low heat, stirring until they
are hot all through. Be careful
not to overlook them. You'll find
nut meats, particularly pecans,
darken and become crisper as they
cool. Drain the nuts on absorbent
paper and sprinkle with salt.
Blanched almonds and blanched
raw peanuts are roasted in the
same way, but they should be
heated little longer, until they're

Suqarless Dainties

Sugarless Dainties
It's getting near the time when
we're thinking of special nibbles
for the holidays. Few of us have
enough sugar to make the usual
candies. But luckily nuts are
plentiful this year. Both almond
and filbert trees are weighed
with their autumn harvest, and
there's a better than average sup
ply of English walnuts. Pecans
are the only one of the popular
nuts that are shorter in supply
than last year.
Then too, there'll be imports
more Brazil nuts than we've had
since the War-cashews are COM
ing in from India and Brazil, al

satisfy nut-hungry Americans.
