Hints To Home-Makers

Onions for flavor: Food spe.
cialists say the onion is most
important vegetable in giving
zest to wide variety of dishes.
No other vegetable can be used
in so many ways. Think of the
many sauces, stuffings for meat.
poultry or fish, salads and salad
dressings, relishes, main dishes
and vegetable dishes which need
onions for their flavor.
Heating chopped or sliced on
ion in little fat helps draw out
and distribute the onion flovor
in stews and stuffings. Many
good cooks let sliced onion stand
in French dressing awhile before
mixing the salad, as a means Of
stretching flavor.
Raw slices of the big, mild.
sweet onions have always been
favorites for sandwiches botIi
hot or cold. The big pale rings
are attractive, tender in texture.
and not too pungent to combine
with salad greens.
AS a cooked vegetable onions
are popular creamed, au gratln.
or cooked with tomatoes. Baked
onions are an easy addition to
an oven dinner. Peel medium.slz;
sweet onions. Cut in half cross
wise. Place in a baking dish.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper
and dot with table fat. Ado
enough water to cover the bot
tom of the dish. Cover and bakp
in a moderate oven about 81
minutes. Top with crumbs. Cook
until brown on top.
MANY homemakers may fec
that she does not have the right
container to use for flower az
engagements. Here are a few sug
gestions that you may not have
thought of. for the contalner
that really interest the flowc'
lover, are very often those no:
originally intended for that pur,
pose: tea pots, cream pitchers
vegetable dishes, gravy boats
many types of antique spoon
holders, large cups and saucers
are unique containers. Should
YOUR home be early American
old pewter pie plates and candle
molds would be ideal. These sug-
gestions will fit modern nome
too.
