To peel or not to peel has al

wives when discussing root vege-
tables such as potatoes and car
rots. Since both these vegetables
appear on the list Of "best values"
this week let's see what the United
States Department of Agricul-
lures Bureau Of Human Nutri-
ton and Home Economies has to
say:
Potatoes, boiled or baked in
their jackets, offer important
dividends, especially in vitamin c.
over those pared before cooking.
If you want to serve potatoes
without their skin, remove 1t after
cooking rather than before. This
may save time as well as nutritive
value, because skinning a hot
boiled potato Is quicker and easier
than pairing . raw potato. With
carrots, the story Is different.
Carrot skin seems to give little or
no protection to nutritive value
in cooking. Pared and impaired
carrots were about equal In nu-
tritive value In the tests"

The Chef Saws

A dish often featured in the
swankier French restaurants is
"paupiettes de veau fontanges'-
veal birds with peas. by the
way, how is your French these
days? Getting rusty? Well, I
have some more of the French and
Italian menu term leaflets avail
able now. and If you would like
one or both send large self
addressed envelope. stamped with
6 cents postage-ONE FOR EACH
SET. They are too bulky to mail
together. Just address THE
Chef" in care of The Evening
Starr
But to get back to the paupi-
cites. They are difficult to pre-
pare, but for party they are well
worth the effort.
Have the butcher cut 2 pounds
of veal from the leg, and cut it in
paper-thin slices. Put between
sheets of waxed paper and pound
until almost thin enough to see
through! Brown 6 chicken livers
In butter, and remove them from
the pan. Cook about 8 mush-
rooms, sliced in the same pan,
adding more butter as needed. Let
the mushrooms cook about 10
minutes, while you shred the

seasoning with salt and pepper
and marjoram.

cooker. They are preparing roasrS,
fish. fowl, vegetables and desserts
in the course Of their den1onstra-
tions. They will answer all your
questions about pressure cookery,
teach you some new methods and
give the beginner specific advice
in the use Of this piece of equip
ment. Even If you already own a
pressure cooker you will learn
many new ways in which to use
1t to the best advantage. When
you're downtown over the week
end plan to stop by and see this
pressure cooker clinic. Call me
at Sterling 5000. Extension 495 for
the name of the store.
HERE AND THERE: Ground
beef is an excellent buy since it
is waste-free and adaptable to so
many uses. Here's a delicious
variation: Mix meat balls as usual
and form into balls. Sprinkle
with flour and brown well in fat:
then pour q can of condensed
mushroom soup diluted with .
half cup Of water over them.
Cover and let simmer for 20 min
utes. Since dried fruits are
usually sold by the pound. 1t is q
good idea to keep in mind just
how much volume one gets from
a pound. The volume varies for
each kind of fruit. A pound Of
raisins averages a little over 3
cups fruit by measure.
Chopped ripe olive and hard
cooked eggs make an excellent
combination for lenten sand
wiches. Add a speck of curry
powder along with the other sea-
sonings to give it especially good
taste. Spread between split soft
rolls. Mans requirement for
riboflavin, one of the important B
,vitamins, is the same regardless
of what his activities may be.
Among the good sources Of this
vitamin are: Broccoli, milk, tur-
nip greens. peas. peanuts, whole
eggs, lean beef, American cheese
and liver. Milk is an impor-
tant food for people of all ages.
Even folks who 60 on reducing
diets should remember that it is
important that their diet contain
a pint of milk a day. If you want
to keep down the calories use skim
milk or buttermilk. d.. There are
only two rules to follow when US
ing candles: Candles are never
used unless they are lighted. This
means they can be used only for
dinners, late suppers or at late
afternoon teas. Never use less
than four or more than eight on
any one dining table. Two on
each side of the centerpiece Is the
usual arrangement. However, for
a buffet table. three or four in
graduated sizes on each side OF the
centerpiece. if it is a side or end
arrangement, can be very ettec-
tive.

We have purchased recently an
electric stove and before getting
any more good quality pans, I
would like to know what expert
ences people have had with the
various types, particularly those
with copper bottoms. Do they
tarnish as rapidly as they do over
a gas flame?
Regarding food budgets: We try
to get along on SIS per week. This
includes two small children, two
adults and one large. hungry dog.
It excludes fresh milk for the old
ter child. Although we almost
never have expensive cuts of meat,
we get a great deal of pleasure in
using herbs in cooking and using
imagination in preparing cheaper
cuts and casseroles. We do have
several end-of- -the-month stand
bys, Goldfish cakes. baked beans.
waffies and egg dishes, which are
particularly economical right now.
We don't like rich desserts. which
helps and I utilize even bits of
Ileftovers for the older child's
lunch.
A hearty soup and a sandwich
make an adequate supper now and
then. Scrapple is an inexpensive
substitute for bacon or sausage.

cabbage. Irish potatoes, cooking
and salad greens are the most
economical buys at the moment.
However. you'll find green beans.
broccoli, cauliflower, to-
matoes and green peppers are not
out Of line with the season. Here's
an interesting thing about green
peas. One broker told me the
demand for fresh peas seems to
grow less and less. It's his theory
that more people apparently pre-
fer the quick-frozen variety to
the fresh.
With lenten meals to consider,
you can count on plenty Of eggs
this month. The output rises dur
ing the spring, usually reaching
q peak In April. Get out your
cook books and see all the long
list Of tempting dishes that can
be made from eggs. More good
news at this time is the announce
ment from the West Coast tuna
industry that this year. for the
first time since 1898, the tuna
supply may almost equal the de-
mand for Lent. They have the
largest stocks on hand in 10 years.
Don't forget about our local fish
markets; they have a wonderful
assortment and the prices on sea-
sonal fish are very reasonable. You
know how the English like their
fish and chips" so why not serve
our version of that dish-f1sh and
hush puppies? They're fiat corn
cakes, favored with chopped onion
and dropped into the fat in which
fish has just been fried. You've
probably heard the story of how
these cakes got their name. Long
ago-campers Wearied Of hearing
the dogs whine around the camp
fires when they shifted the tanta-
lizing odors of a fish fry. So-in
order to quiet them, the cooks
stirred up some corn cakes to feed
them, and then found they made
mighty good eating for themselves
The very modern version of the
hush puppy has joined the family
of prepared mixes, and all you
have to do is add water, mix, and
fry in hot fat to golden brown
Incidentally, this same mix makes
an excellent breading for the ten
der young chickens that are in
such liberal supply now.
It looks as though we're going
to get some of our long delayed
winter at last, which means plenty
Of good hearty meals ahead before
