PAGE FIVE A Meal In Garden Time PRING is a busy season for all garden enthusiasts. And when the out-of-doors: beckons, even the window-box gardener finds it doubly important to plan meals that can be prepared without too much at- tention. One of the staunchest allies in a “less-time-in-the-kitchen” campaign is the thrifty deep well cook- er, which is now rart of the standard equip- ment of almost all electric ranges. Whole meals — the meat, vegetables and dessert—can be prepared in these cookers—all at one time. Food cooked in the deep well cooker of an electric range, more- over, requires almost no watching while it is cooking, a fact which makes this Swedish Dinner an ideal one to plan for a gardening after- noon. To prepare it, place.a heef tongue (see recipe for preliminary preparation), six large potatoes and a fresh strawberry about-to-be steamed pudding in the cooker. Af- ter the tongue is cooked, a special Swedish sauce is made with the broth. So, instead of the three sur- face units and the oven which this meal would require if prepared in the usual manner, all the heat necessary to cook the whole meal is provided by the one cooker unit, and it is set at an economical low speed. But here are the recipes for the Swedish dinner: Swedish Dinner (Serves 6) 1 beef tongue (about 214 1bs.) 2 teaspoons salt 1 carrot 1 stalk celery 6 large potatoes Wipe tongue with damp cloth. Place in deep well cooker with salt, carrot, celery, and enough water to just cover the ton- gue (about 3 cups), Cover ¢cnoker and switch to a high beat. When steam comes from vent turn to the lowest heat that will maintain steaming and cook for 15 hours. Then open cooker and arrange potatoes around tongue and place pan containing strawberry pudding on rack over meat. Cover cooker, switch to high heat until steam again comes {rom vent, then switch to lowest heat that will maintain steaming and cook for 11% hours longer. At the end of this time remove food from cooker. Keep pudding and potatoes warm. Make Swedish Sauce for tongue. Peel and slice tongue and serve with Swedish sauce over slices. Swedish Sauce 3 cups stock (from tongue) 1 tablespoon vinegar 1 tablespoon sugar 14 cup currants 14 cup blanched, chopped almonds 10 gingersnaps Remove broth left in cooker after tongue is removed. Measure and return 3 cups to cooker. Add vine- gar, sugar, currants, almonds and gingersnaps. Switch cooker to a high bkeat and cook for about 10 minutes or until thick and smooth. Steamed Strawberry Pudding (Serves 6) 14 cup butter 1 tablespoon orange rind (grated) 34, cup sugar 1 cup sifted flour (general purpose) 1 teaspoon baking powder 14 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons milk 2 tablespoons orange juice 2 egg whites (stiffly beaten) 14 teaspoon vanilla 1 pint fresh strawberries 11% teaspoons cornstarch Cream shortening and add grated orange rind. Add 2; cup of the sugar gradually, creaming until soft and fluffy. Sift to- gether flour, bak- ing powder and salt. Add to the creamed mi x- ture alternately with milk and orange juice. Beat egg whites until stiff enough to hold a peak, then fold lightly into pudding with spatula. Add vanilla. Mix strawber- ries with cornstarch and remaining 1% cup of sugar. Place berries in bottom of greased pudding pan.! Pour batter over them. Cover top of pan with waxed paper and steam | 1% hours in deep well cooker of electric ran
