OIO. H. DOUCETT, MUrtt ONTARIO DEPARTMENT OF HIGHWAYS Hello Homemakers! Delicate in flavour, tender in texture, attract- tive in colour and shape and alto- gether delicious is the way all veg- etables should be served. But too often common cooking mtetlhods leave vegetables soggy and colour- less. So we review do's and dont's to encourage you to keep the true colour and goodness of fresh garden produce. 1. Never use soda in cooking veg- etalbles. It desitroys some of the vitamins and flavqur. 2. Recommended cooking meth- ods are baking, steaming, and steam-boiling. This latter me- thod is cooking in as small a quantity of water as possible, such as half an inch. It is recommended for young, fresh garden vegetables. 3'. Over-cooking and too much water cause loss of minerals and vitamins and deskruction of true colour and flavour. 4. The liquiid in which a veget- able has been cooked or canned should be used for souos, cream sauces, gravies or veg- etable juice drinks. B. Fres'h or drie<l herbs, leaves from celery tops often ad 1 flavour and variety to veget- ables or other dishes. 6. Serve a raw vegetables once a day. 7. Scrub tender young vegetables Trim wisely. When you peel, peel thin. When you cut, cut even pieces. When prepared do not allow them, to stand in a warm room, keep in a small amount of water in the refrig- erator. Better still, prepare vegetables in time to dash them onto the stove to cook. 8. Add 1 teaspoon of salt to each pint of water and then it is not necessary to add any sa't when they are eaten. 11. When the pot of vegetables be- gins to boil, reduce the heat to keep boiling, but never allow a ''rushing" boil. * .. , 11. Do not cook to death'. Keep track of the time. When a fork can be gently pu.'^hcd into a piece, drain the liquid into an enamel or heat-resistant glass jar. 12. To serve as a buttered veget- able, shake the fresh cooked, food over a warm electric cle- ment, then add 1 tbsp. of but- ter for each cup of ' vegetables. Fold a piece of cheesecloth over the food if it is not being served immadiately. Serve in a warm vegetable dish.
