Hello Homemakers! The men
at the crop improvement Confer
ence are talking about ns, They
want to know why homemakers
do not buy more Ontario pota
toes and turninps, We are not
among the guilty because we
purchase home-grown vegetables
whenever possible. Who could
pass by such inexpensive, nutri
tious foods? Ontario growers are
producing high quality crops and
we should stop to consider the
well-being of our farmer-neigh
bour. Local vegetables are being
graded and packaged more care
fully and efficiently now than in
the past. If you ask for Grade 1
or Hiland potatoes you will find
them of uniform size smooth and
free from disease. (The Hi-land
packages come from Dufferin
County, the highest garden area
in Ontario.) When you purchase
turnips and onions look for ones
that have had a narrow stem,
few roots and those that are
oval and smooth.
There are
that potatoes and turnips are
fattening. In
statement may we remind you
that jam and breads are to 9 8
per cent starch while these root
vegetables are only 20 per cent.
In other words, one medium siz
ed potato is not more fattening
than 1 slice of bread or y2
doughnut or % serving of apple
pie.
Although it is true that pota
toes and turnips are a good
source of food energy, Vitamin
C and iron, it is necessary to re
mind you that potatoes cooked
in their skins or pressure cooked
turnips have the most nutrition
value.
TAKE A TIP
Do not soak peeled vegetables
before cooking.
Cook as quickly as possible in
a covered pan.
3. Start cooking in small amount
of boiling water. Reduce heat
once water is back to boiling.
4. Use the cooking water for
soup stock or gravy. (If pota
toes are boiled and
is discarded, about

5. Serve the potatoes
nips as soon as they are cook
ed.
6. Keep
well ventilated room to pre
serve
Vitamin C.
7. Since potatoes reheated by
pan frying or browning are
low in food value it is inad
visable to cook two meals’
supply at one time. A good
way to use leftover baked
potatoes is to peel, cube and
heat in a milk sauce in a
double boiler. Another way to
heat leftover boiled - in-skin
potatoes is to make Duchess
potatoes.
