By MRS. M. A. WILSON
(Copyright. 19lt. bu tin. il. A. II tlaoii.
ytll rlonts rttenei.)
TOURING our intensive conserva-
tion work Inst summer many of
Us dried plenty of vegetables, with
the thought in mind that we could
utilize them during the winter. I
have found that vegetables conserved
by dehydration or drying occupy
Jess space, keep better and are avail
f ablo for use by simply soaking in
water about ninety degrees Fahren
heit, and then cooking them until
, tender.
Many delicious and appetizing
dishes can be made from our store
of dried vegetables. Vary the daily
bill of fare in this way and also
materially lower the high cost of
living. Then the pleasure of par
taking of these old-fashioned homy
foods lends savor and variety to the
' meal during the cold stormy days.
Spinach Pudding
Soak one cupful of bpinach in
water ninety degrees Fahrenheit for
two hours and then place in a piece
of cheesecloth and rinse in plenty of
cold water. Place the spinach in si
saucepan ana nau one-nan. cujuui
of boiling water. Cook until ten
der and then diain well. To the
cooked spinach add
Tivo onions, minced icry fine.
One cupful of bread crumbs.
One tablespoonful of butter.
,i One teaspoonful of salt.
One teaspoonful of paprika.
One egg.
One-half cupful of milk.
Mix thoroughly and then pour in
wqll-greascd baking dish and sprinkle
the top with grated cheese. Bake
In a hot oven for twenty minutes.
Serve with cream or tomato sauce.
Spinach "With Hollandaise Sauce
Prepare the spinach as given in
tho above recipe and then, when
coolied, drain well and mold the spin
ach on a hot platter. Pour over it
Hollandaise sauce and garnish with
slices of hard-boiled egg.
Hollandaise Sauce
Four tablespoonfuls of salad oil.
Two tablespoonfuls of vinegar.
One tablespoonful of water.
One teaspoonful of salt.
One-half teaspoonful of paprika.
Heat in a double boiler to the
scalding point and then drop in the
yolk of an egg. Stir until thick. Use
at once. If it should curdle add ono
tablespoonful of boiling water and
stir constantly until thick.
String Beans, Italian Style
Soak one cupful of dried string
beana and then cook until tender,
adding
Two onions, minced fine.
One green or red pepper, minced
fine.
When tender drain well and sea
on with
One teaspoonful of salt.
- One teaspoonful of paprika.
Three tablespoonfuls of grated
cheese.
Carrots a la Brabanconne

A Few Pointers About Vegetables
Do not oversalt vegetables. Never
salt while cooking; too much salt
not only toughens the delicate fibers
but also neutralizes the valuable
mineral content.
Add just sufficient boiling water
to cover and then bring to a boil
Then cook slowly until tender. Do
not cover the saucepan in which the
vegetables are cooking. This con
denses the steam which contains the

I must ashamedly confess that I have at

which were very deep and which would keep
