Hello Homemakers! Keep sup-
plies on hand for an impromptu
after -the -game supper. Serve a
hot and hearty meal in one dish
such as cheese spaghetti, creamed
eggs on biscuits, baked beans in
casserole, waffles and maple
syrup, curried rice with bacon,
or salmon burgers. Many foods
ere now available in prepared
mixes at a reasonable price , . .
the. spaghetti is packaged with
grated cheese; the dried eggs in
tins; biscuit mix in boxes; and
then there is waffle mix, bottled
syrup, instant rice, canned saus-
ages, bread roll mix, instant cof-
fee, and canned cream or eva-
porated milk.
Some of these foods require
baking, but even this does not
prevent having an amount al-
ready cooked for a crowd if you
have freezing space in the re-
frigerator for keeping. However,
if you have working space in the
kitchen, it is a good thing to
encourage the 'teen-agers to
concoct their own refreshments.
Sometimes the young folk will
make very weak coffee and en-
joy it which is something for
Which you would be chastized.
The most appreciated act is the
offer of assistance by two or three
people in clearing and washing
dishes.
1. Follow the directions on pre-
pared :nix packages explicitly.
2.I2 you use a bottle of sweet
pickles, save,the juice and slice
onions into it, then store in a
dark place for four to six weeks
before you serve as pickled
ornoa rings.
3. Make carrot sticks and turnip
slivers by peeling and slicing
pencil size, then chill (without
water or salt) in a jar in the
electric refrigerator.
4. To blanche almonds, pour boil-
ing water over them and let
stand five minutes. Drain and
let nuts partially cool, then
squeeze off the skins, Place
nuts in slightly greased shal-
low pan and brown in a pre-
heated oven at 375 degrees for
ten minutes.
5. Specify the thickness of sliced
cured ham,, chops, steaks, etc.
If the meat is cut too thin,
much of its flavour and char-
acter is lost.
, Sandwiches can be made one
day ahead of serving if you
wrap and store them in the
refrigerator, The best way to
serve ham, cheese and peanut
butter sandwiches for a crowd
is to toast then all under the
preheated broiling element.
. A small amount of apple sauce
on a pork sandwich makes it
tasty and moist.
8. Always use a cookie sheet or
jelly roll sheet for biscuits,
scones and cookies, as the re-
sult will be even brownness on
top and bottom,
