once said that "a good cook is one
who knows her onions"; unci there
is actually <a whole lot of truth in
that saying. For onions, properly
handled, not only add piquancy and
flavour to countless dishes; they
are one of the finest foods in them-
selves.
So today I ails starting off with
two different recipes for Onion
Soup—both of them, to use the.
teen-agers' favorite phrase, "out of
this world," I hope you'll try.thein
soon, and that your "folks" will find
them as good as mine do.
