The Chef Saws

any number of recipes that take
kindly to the chaf1ng dish treat
ment. And in the shops you will
find all sorts of superb chafing
dishes. From then on out you are
on your own. But if you want some
special chafing dish recipes, drop
me a line in care of The Evening
Star with a stamped, self-addressed
envelope and I'll be glad to send you
"a few.
Here is one that has been well
received by my guests:
Cook 2 pounds of jumbo green
shrimp. Shell and clean them. In
your chafing dish heat tablespoon
Of olive oil and when it is hot add 2
big shallots chopped fine, a small
Glove of garlic, also chopped. and
then the shrimp. Season highly
with salt, pepper and cayenne. Let
all cook for just few minutes
Then add fresh tomatoes, peeled
and cubed. Put the cover On the
chafing dish and let simmer about
5 minutes. Then add 2 cups OF
tomato sauce and let cook for Is
minutes longer. Pour in u cup dry
white wine and stir well. Turn out
the heat and add a little butter and
some parsley, minced fine. Serve at
once with warm French bread and
curls Of sweet butter.
Evening star., 1948-06-10

That. time-honored utensil, the
chafing dish, has returned to high
popularity. Back in the days of the
Gibson girl, pompadours and BIZ
cycles, the gals used to lure their
beaux to evening parties, haul out
the chafing dish, light the alcohol
lamp underneath it and concoct all
sorts of delectable messes to delight
the gentlemen's hearts.
The chafing dish is wonderful
institution, for it combines all the
virtues Of the American double
boiler and the French bain-marie.
It is the thing for welsh rabbits, for
real cheese fondue-in fact, for
almost any dish in which melted
cheese is the main Ingredient, for
cheese must not be hurried, and the
gentle cooking of the chafing dish
is ideal.
On the other hand, it also is the
perfect utensil for making f1ambee
dishes, such as crepes suzette,
famed lobster and so on. You
bring it to the table, SO there is no
scrambling to and fro from kitchen
to dining room. In fact, I would
put it down as the most important
item on a housekeeper's list OF
equipment.
You will ind in most cookbooks

Report to the Housewife

aroma that would indicate plenty
Of flavor. The berries are coming
from nearby areas, all within q
miles from the District, which un-
doubtedly accounts for the excel
lent quality. Blackberries and blue
berries are quite plentiful and look
very nice. Peaches are arriving
from South Carolina; the quality is
only fair and seems to vary con-
siderably from day to day. Pine
apples are a good fruit to put on
your list. For a quick and easy
dessert, and one that is delightfully."-
refreshing this time of year, COM
bine cubes Of fresh pineapple with
some of the luscious, red straw
berries.
AS for vegetables, there are sew
eral outstanding values this week.
Cabbage is not only plentiful but
you'll find it very cheap. Celery,
all cooking greens, white and yellow
squash, onions and potatoes come
under the list of good values" "
There is plenty Of asparagus still
around but you know the marketing
season is short on that vegetable
so catch it while you can. Green
beans are in fair supply; the quality
varies and so does the cost. Carrots
are gradually working downward In
price so we should see some good
values there very soon. The first
white sugar corn from North Caro-
lima has reached the market; egg
plant is low in price but too much
can't be- said for the quality. Cali
fornia iceberg lettuce is improving
and supplemented with the generous
supplies of romaine and Boston
lettuce from New Jersey you should
experience little difficulty finding
salad material.
Evening star., 1948-06-10

Here and There: Almost $500
bags Of Netherlands East Indies
pepper, the largest consignment Of
its kind to reach this country since
before World War II, arrived In New
York recently from Rotterdam.
Other items in the cargo included
the first shipment of Apollinaris
mineral water to arrive in America
since 1899, tea, frozen fillets Of sole.
poppy seed, paprika, cheeses, pickles
and assorted liquors. Honey Is
well suited for use in the freezing
of fruit. Honey not only helps pre-
serve fruit but gives additional food
values. Celery belongs to the
same family as the carrot. parsley.
fennel, caraway and anise.
II you grow lima beans in your own
garden, you have vitamin advan.
tage over those who must buy and
keep theirs a long time. Beans used
promptly as they ripen offer the
most in vitamins. An eviscerated
chicken weighs about 20 per cent
less than its dressed weight. 80.
The next time you are planning q
nodded fruit gelatin dessert. dissolve
q package of lemon-fiavored gelatin
in 2 cups Of hot apricot whole fruit
nectar. Pour into desired molds and
chill. When Arm, unmold and gar.
nish with fresh fruit. and q bit
of whipped cream. It's ultra de-
licious. :. Gingerbread batter baked
in muffin tins is an easy way to vary
your dessert. Just scoop out the
centers and spread well with cream
cheese, fruit mixtures, jams, or mar
malades. Farm families who
have more milk than they can use
during the early summer season
often wonder if they cannot pre-.
serve surplus milk for future use by
canning it at home. Dairy special-
lists of the Department of Agricul.
ture say that home canning OF milk
is possible, but they do not recon-.
mend it because the home canned
product cannot compare with com.
mercially canned milk. With home
canning equipment the milk cannot
be concentrated under vacuum, or
homogenized- two processes which
make for the superior quality OF
commercially canned milk. Home
canned milk is thin, and during
storage the fat separates and the
milk may develop off-fiavors. If
correctly canned under pressure, 1t
will keep from spoilage but the
family is not likely to find it as ap-
petizing as the commercial product.

PAPER DRAPERIES.
HELPFUL HINTS.

from Mrs. S. H. F., Siluer Spring.
I have the paper draperies that
drip and ruin the floors, and, also
the kind that don't drip. If I re-
member correctly, the ones that
drip were hame-proof, and had a.
distinct odor. After noticing the
pools of water under the drippers,
kept newspapers under them for
week, after which they dripped no
more. And are still lovely after
many months.
If you have had no success in
making cakes, try using the same
simple cake recipe each time until
you have perfect cake, then you
need have no fear Of trying any
cake recipe. use only hot water
in washing my cake pans and they
do not stick. Marshmallow creme
makes nice icing for cake. Spread
on cake while warm. usually use
the creme as a middle filling for
chocolate cakes, and chocolate icing
on top layer.
After reading the discussions on
dumplings. 1 tried one recipe three
time before I succeeded in making
delicious dumplings. An excellent
recipe for dumplings: One cup OF
flour (sifted), 2 teaspoons, baking
powder, 4 teaspoon salt, l tablespoon
shortening, u cup milk, / egg. Sift
-four with baking powder and salt.
Cut shortening into -four until mix
ture is as fine as corn meal. Add
milk and egg which have been beat
en- together with egg beater, and
mix very lightly until soft dough
is formed. Drop from teaspoon
on top of simmering meat stew or
broth. Cover and cook six minutes,
turn, and cook two minutes longer.
Use a wide pan so dulnplings won't
be crowded. For chicken and dump
lings, I boil the wings, back, neck
and giblets, with one small onion,
in large amount of salted water, then
remove meat when tender, thicken
broth with flour and milk, and add
l tablespoon drippings from fried
chicken.
Add marshmalIow creme or pep
permint patties to hot chocolate
pudding for q different flavor.
have been very successful in re-
moving difficult stains from wool
sweaters by immersing In q luke

RECIPES GIVEN;
QUERY?

from M. S., Washington.)
In reply to v. B. asking for ba-
mana cream pie, will offer the fol-
lowing: Beat the yolks of 2 eggs
tc a cream with u cup of sugar.
Add 11a cups Of sweet milk. Peel
and smash 2 large bananas or 3
small ones; sift them and add to the
ingredients. Bake with l crust and
when done cover with her meringue
made of the whites of eggs and
3 tablespoons of sugar. Serve cold.
Another good seasonal recipe:
Cucumber Jelly-This is especially
nice to serve with any fish or 1t
makes a good salad course. Serve
with lettuce leaves which have
French dressing upon them.
Prepare four large cucumbers not
too ripe, cut up and stew in l
quart of water with a small onion
and green pepper. Add full tea
spoon of salt and u teaspoon white
pepper. Soak meanwhile half box
of gelatin in teacup of cold water.
When cucumbers are perfectly soft,
stir in the gelatin until it is fully
dissolved. Then strain if you de-
sire to avoid seeds. When almost
cold peel and slice very thin l Gu
cumber; line the mold which has
been wet with cold water, with it;
pour in the liquid jelly; allow to
set very firmly.
If served on platter upon lettuce
leaves, pour the French dressing
over the jelly as we'll as the leaves.
French dressing is made in pro-
portions of 2 tablespoons of salad
oil to / of vinegar with half tea
spoon of salt.
Stuffed Eggplant-Cut the egg
plant in two, scrape out all the in
sides and put it in saucepan with
2 tablespoons of minced ham; cover

per. Stuff each half of the hull with
the mixture; add small lump OF

EMPTY CANS?

I send many packages to Europe
and am able to obtain fresh rendered
lard but have not been able to beg
or buy empty quart, half gallon,
and gallon cans (such as sirup cans)
which can be soldered around the lid.
Thus far, I have purchased large
quantity of cans full Of sirup but
can find no way of disposing of the
sirup.
If any one knows where may To-
cate empty pint, quart. half gallon,
or gallon sirup cans I would GER
tainly appreciate information to that
effect.

COUCH PILLOWS;
FITTING LAMP

From Mrs. r. A. L., Takoma Park.
To Mrs. w. K. B., who asked what
to do to make her studio couch pill
lows firm. This is what I did with
fine results: used the inside of 2
large old bed pillows and divided
it evenly among the three couch
pillows. Be careful with the feath-
ers, or you'll have them all over
the house.
To stop the lamp from fitting
easily take it to a workshop and
have them pour some molten lead
under the base. This costs only a
few cents and works fine.

CHILD PROBLEM9
(From Mrs. L. A. P, Alerandria.)
Like many others, find the RICH
invaluable. Most recently, I am
really indebted to all those who
wrote regarding weaving baby to
a cup. I have been trying to wean
my year-old girl by the gradual
method, and was at standstlll, for
she would drink some from the cup,
but not enough, and some from the
bottle, but not too enthusiastically.
So I stored away the bottles, and
in no time she was drinking all her
milk from the cup. and with far less
protest than I had anticipated.
Now my problem: My "angel" is
in no danger of sprouting wings, but
taken on the whole, she is a good
baby, will play happily in her pen
for hours, while I do my work, and
certainly demands very little atten-
ton. But she won't stay alone out
side in her pen. I've tried letting
her "cry it out" but she cries longer
and louder, so finally I'm forced to
bring her in. I've tried putting her
under the kitchen window, and I
talked and sang blue streak to
her, but she still yelled. I see other
babies outside alone in their pens,
very contented, but mine seems ter
rified if she is left alone outdoors.
I've tried staying with her until she
is engrossed in play, but as soon
as leave her, the battle is on. She
doesn't cry when left alone indoors.
Have you other mothers faced this
situation? How did you cope with
it? Is it just another one of those
"stages" and will she outgrow 1t?
Thanks for any suggestions, for I
have certainly tried everything I
can think of to keep her happy out
doors, when I can't be with her.

SCARS ON FURNITURE

From Mrs. F. C. B., Glenn Dale.)
To Mrs. j. v. K, Greenbelt. Re-
moval of scars on furniture caused
by moving same: If you will take
two or three walnut meats and grind
them through finest grinder of meat
chopper, placing the ground nuts in
soft cloth (cheesecloth preferably
and will twist this into a small ball
resembling tea ball, you will have
perfect medium for the removal of
the marks on your nice pieces,
whether walnut or mahogany.
Squeeze the bag until juice begins
to show then rub well into the scar
until it disappears. This acts as
slight stain. Wipe dry, then wax;
presto, like new!

It's time to get out your recipes
for broiled chicken. According to
the latest market reports we can
look forward to larger supplies of

what about those recipes? Have you
ever used a wine-herb sauce? Cook
up the chicken neck and giblets with
a small onion, sprig of parsley, a
bay leaf and a cup of water until

Scarcely q week goes by that we
don't hear Of some new food prodUct
to pass along to you. This time It
is a sauce that is being introduced
in some Of the local stores. This
Is intended primarily for use on
vegetables and fruit salads but it
is equally good used on cottage
cheese salads or with fresh salmon
steaks! You'll find it is particular
ly tasty with sliced tomatoes.
The sauce, made Of sugar. spices,
eggs, salt and vinegar, has mildly
acid taste that combines very well
with such vegetables as broccoli,
caulifiower and cabbage, that seem
to have a natural affinity for a sour
dressing. It contains no oil and no
onion so it goes equally well on fruit
combinations. Whipped cream may
may be added just before serving
il you want to increase the quantity
of the sauce. Interested? II you
are. I'll be glad to tell you where
this sauce may be purchased; Just
call me at National 5000, Extension
495.
