There's no doubt in my mind that
few, if any. women can make a
Welsh rarebit properly. 1t is a
matter of timing and the male chef
seems to be better at that. Turn
the average man loose in kitchen
with some cheese and bottle OF
beer and he nearly always will come
up with luscious concoction OF
melting tenderness-and not a
string in the bowlful.
Here's the recipe I have found to
be most satisfactory. The rarebit
must be cooked in double boiler,
with the water just simmering be
meath the top section-too much
heat and fast cooking will turn a
rarebit into a rubbery, uneatable
mess in nothing fiat.
Mix in the top of the boiler u
teaspoon dry mustard; u teaspoon
salt, Il teaspoon worcestershire
sauce and few grains of Cayenne
= Then stir in "a cup of light beer
anu 1a pound of good sharp store
cheese, cut in small pieces. Stir
over the simmering water just until
the cheese is melted. Then add I
beaten egg and continue to sti,

Imeringue and brown IN SLOW oVen'
300 degrees F.
This makes a very delicious pie.
If desired (and my husband likes 1t
this way, too), instead Of saving the
egg whites for the meringue, use
the whole eggs and beat as usual
and using the same procedure all
through, but having no meringue.
This makes a very tasty pie and is
very easy to make.
Our favorite apple pie and pastry
recipe: Pastry for 9-inch unbaked
shell: " cup shortening, u tea
spoon salt, 11z cups sifted Hour,
3 tablespoons water.
Sift tour ana sast into bowl.
Take out "a cup -four and mix with
3 tablespoons water to form paste.
Cut shortening with knives. fork
or blender) into remaining flour
until the pieces are the size of small
peas. Add -four paste to the short
ening- flour mixture. Mix dough
until it forms a ball. Roll out "a
inch thick. Place In a 9-inch
pie pan.
Filling: s to mediums sized
cooking apples, enriched flour, 11a
cups sugar drown or white, as de-
sired), butter, Is teaspoon salt. Line
pie tin with unbaked pastry. Cover
the bottom of the pie with flour, salt
and sugar, then fill with very thin
slices of peeled apple, sprinkling
sugar over each layer of apples and
specks of butter as you go along
Fill toward the center of pie to de-
sired amount, then sprinkle top
lightly with sugar and few specks
of butter. Place In hot oven, 425
degrees F., for about IS minutes,
then in moderate oven, $50 degrees
F., for about 40 minutes.
This makes a very tasty pie, with
only the bottom crust, and for any
.one not caring for more spiced pie
We often have the apple, as well
as the chocolate pie, and the same
pastry recipe for each pie and al
ways have fine crust as well as de-
licious filling, so do not hesitate in
recommending either or both OF
these recipes.

readers. She says, - There
must be many women who, like my
self, go, to market only three times a
week and for us would 1t not be
practical to print the entire weeks
menus at the end Of the preceding
week." So, carrying out her sug-
gestion, we are trying it today for
the first time. The menus and
recipes will not be repeated during
the week; If you want them for q
guide I suggest you clip them today.
Have you noticed how much better
cheese is this fall? It really begins
to taste like the prewar article.
When the demand for this nutritious
food was so great the supply
couldn't keep pace with it. 1t was
almost a case Of making 1t today
and selling 1t tomorrow but, fortu-
nately, we are now getting back to
the old level. You will find some ex-
cellent aged New York and Wiscon-
sin cheese on the market now; back
again, too, are the cute, fat little jars
of aged blue cheese In brandy. Still
ton in port, and cheddar in sherry
You can buy these jars IN sets OF
three for Christmas gifts. If you
would like something more preten-
tious I saw a very attractive wooden
basket filled with six different va
rieties of cheese. The assortment
includes two packages Of Gruyere-
type process cheese, a Wisconsin
made Dutch type, a smoked natura
cheese, Wisconsin cheddar and q
caraway cheddar.
You certainly can't 60 wrong wher
YOU give food as a gift. There are
a number of items showing up thi!
holiday season that have been miss
ing since before the war. Remembel
those delicious hard-filled candle:
we used to have? They can be hae
again, you'll find them in an assort'
ment of f1avors and filings. For
rather unusual gift and something
the average housewife doesn't taxi
the trouble to make, are various
sized packages of lebkuchen. I
comes from a speciality house II
California and Is made according
to the original Nuremberg recipe
you can have 1t in large or tea siz'
cakes. There was one assortmen
put. up in a e-in-England bo'
that was very Christmas-y looking
this box contained both the larg
and tea size lebkuchen, plus SOM
with chocolate flavor. Speaking o
chocolate, there is also a chocolate
sealed lebkuchen that looks for al
the world like a box of candy. Jus
one more package of cookies tha
caught my eye was a tricky con
tainer shaped like a little drum
the drumsticks were fastened to tn
outside so it really would make
childs toy when the cookies are gone
To switch from cookies to meat
there are gay-looking packages o
canned meats that make wonderful
presents in these days when mea
is such a priceless commodity. 4ol

CAKE.
(From Mrs. A. S. j., Washington.
Here is the original famous Ken
lucky whisky cake" recipe which
so many readers have been request
ing. This cake can be made any
time between now and one week
before Christmas, as it does not re-
uuire as long to "ripen" as the usual
fruit cake, but once made will keep
indefinitely:
Ingredients: Five cups flour (sift-
ed before measuring), pound
white sugar, / cup brown sugar, 6
eggs beaten separately, y pound
butter (margarine, If necessary
/ pint Kentucky bourbon whisky, l
pound shelled pecan nutmeats, n
pound white raisins (cut in half), l
pound candied red cherries (cut III
pieces, 2 teaspoons nutmeg, tea
spoon baking powder.
Method: Soak cherries and raisins
in whisky overnight. Cream sugar,
butter till fluffy; add yolks and
beat well; add soaked fruit and re-
manning liquid. reserve a small
amount flour for nuts and add re-
manner to mixture; add nutmeg,
baking powder; fold in beaten egg
whites; add lightly Toured pecans
last. Bake in large creased tube
pan lined with creased paper 3 to 4
hours watch baking time) in slow
oven 800 degrees.
Storage: When thoroughly cool
place in large, tightly covered con-
tainer; stuff center hole with cheese
cloth soaked in whisky If desired,
wrap in heavy wax paper. 1t is
not necessary to soak the cake In
additional whisky or treat other
wise, as the cake will keep sufficient
ly moist and flavorful. ..
Slicing: It is helpful to, keep the
cake, still in its container, in a
very cool place refrigerator, If
necessary, during the holiday when
it is being served, as this facilitates
thin, even slicing without waste
from crumbling. (T'his method is
most useful for any fruit or nut
cakes.) The slices soon warm to
room temperature, bringing out all
the tempting flavor and aroma.
Suggestions: Peach or apple BRAN
DIV, or rum, may be substituted
(peach brandy recommended), II
desired, but no true Kentuckian
would settle for less than Kentucky
bourbon! Two smaller tube cake
tins may be used instead OF the one
large, check baking time.
Origin: This recipe came into the
writer's family generations ago
from Bardstown, KY. site Of my
Old Kentucky Home" 1t has been
the star of all our holiday favorites
and a tradition any one who tries
it will adopt Happy holidays to all
your readers.

Ham in Boar Style

Swedish cooks have a way OF
cooking fresh ham in wild boar style
that makes a really gamey treat out
of an ordinary piece of porker-al-
though is any porker ordinary these
days?
Get about 9-pound fresh ham
and immerse it in a pickle made
by combining two quarts light beer,
one cup vinegar, 10 whole pepper
corns, 10 allspice, two tablespoons
salt, five cloves, three minced onions,
a sliced celery stalk, bit OF chervll
and three teaspoons juniper berries.
Cook all these together and chill
before dunking the meat. Put it in
a cold place and keep for three days,
turning the meat from time to time
Better put a wet cloth over the TOP
to prevent evaporation.
Take the meat from the marinade
several hours before it Is to be
cooked and let it drain. Roast as
usual for fresh ham and, when
nearly done, baste with a little Of the
pickle. Serve either hot or cold with
currant or wild grape jelly.
