Your salad bowl will look better and last longer with this proper treatment. First, arrange alternate lay- ers of bread, onion and cheese In 6 individual 11 -cup baking dishes, with cheese as the top layer.

Here :are the two points that 1rqfcsp E. W.

't'his Means the ears should have tender, ming lmnels. Inima- ture ears have undersized ker- nels and a watery J1k. Deer - Mature ears have relatively tough kernels with thiek milk that does nit spurt out when the kernel is split open with the thumb nail. The seeond point is that fresimess is .essenti a I. You sboted pick the corn and have it in ti freezer within three hours, All vegetables require blanch- ing before freezing, to preserve their natural colour and flay - our. If the vegetables are pot blanched, the enzymes. present cause deterioration and the frozen 'vegetablesma have an unpleasant taste. If the core is to be cut from the cob for freezing, blanch the whole ears for four min- utes. •For frozen corn-on-the- ceb, blanch the ears ,'"or nine reinotee, Blanching requires a kettle with at least 'two gallons of vigorously boiling water. Place the prepared ears (busked and with the silk .removed) in a wire basket, colander, or cheesecloth bag, Immerse the. ears in the boiling water. When the water returns to the boil, Start timing the blanching, Ac- curacy is very' important. Don't try to blanch too mach at one time. Chill the .cobs im- mediately after boiling, by plunging them into cold water or holding them under coldrun- ning water, Package im m ediately. A 11 frozen foods must be tightly sealed in a moisture -vapour - proof (MVP) container or wrap- per, to keep the moisture in and the air out. Polyethylene bags are handy for both corn kernels and corn -on -the -cob. You will, require longer bags for cobs than for kernels. Press. the air out of the bag before you twist the top and secure it with an elastic band or other tie. Freeze immediately. B u t remember your freezer .ean only freeze about 2 to 4 pounds of food per cubic foot of freezer space in 24 hours, so don't over- load it. If you have too much to freeze at one time, have it quick-frozen at the local freez- er plant and then store it at honie. COOKING COMMENTS Do the terms evaporated milk and condensed milk con- fuse you? These types of can- ndd milk have one thing in common; they both have half the water removed before they are canned. The difference is that condensed milk has sugar added. It is used in many can- dies and desserts. Evaporated milk when reconstituted with an equal amount of water can be used for whole milk. 11 is especially good in the. summer- time at the cottage for baking because it will keep in the un- opened can at room tempera- ture. Once the can is opened treat it as you. would fresh milk. * * Keep a kitchen notebook. Put a pocket in the back cover to hold all guarantees and in- structions for your household appliances. If you need to refer to them, they are right at your finger-tips, Record the date you purchased the appliance, the price you paid, and any re- pairs that bave been made. An- other section can be for house- hold, say home economists at: Macdonald Institute, Guelph. 41 4. 4. 4.

For pleasing pickles , • ,.eae`teer7..teeeeee',..f-: Are you looking for the se, cret of crisp pickles? The recipe is the key to success, say the homemaking specialists at Macdonald. Insti- tute. Follow it right down to the finat detail. This means proper choice of ingredients, correct measurements, and ac- curate timing. Here's what to do for pleas- ing pickles: The brine should have the proper proportions of salt and water. Too much salt, end the pickles will shrivel and be- come tough. Not enough salt, and the pickles will be soft and slippery. Follow the rec- ipe's recommendations. Pickling salt gives the beg results for pickling. It's easier to identify because it has coarser crystals than table salt. Ordinary salt has iodine added and is treated to keep it free -running. Free -running table salt may make the brine cloudy and affect the texture and appearance of the pickles. Vinegar is an important in- gredient that requires careful selection. The three main types are cider, white wine, and blended, vinegar. Cider vinegar is used in pickles for its flavor, White wine vinegar is used with such vegetables as cauli- flower and onions to maintain their light color. Blended vine- gar is a combination of two or more varieties of vinegars and is used in some pickle recipes, The rule here: always l'ollow the recipe, and if it doesn't state the type of vinegar, use cider vinegar. Alum can, be added to pickles •to keep them crisp. But, if you follow a good .recipe, the pickles will be crisp and there will be no need for alum. The danger is that too much alum will make the pickles bitter. 'Use alum only if the recipe calls for it and then not more than 1 teaspoon per 4 quarts of brine. Spices give pickles their . . .. ..„ • Special flavor, To get the full flavor from spices, get fresh spices every year. Old spices lose a let of their flavor over the winter. Tie the whole spices (11hvahnolegsrPoietetsn gdivesnmicoels.e) flavor nvoar cheesecloth hag. T h e bag should be large enough to al- low for expansion and let the pickling liquid flow through it. Remove the bag before you put the pickles in sealers. Did you know that it is im- portant to use enamel, alum - intim, or stainless steel pots and utensils for pickling? Vin- egar and salt will react with iron, brass, or capper and cause the pickles to discolor. HINTS FOR HOMEMAKERS 'Po keep the bloom on pea- ches, try this method suggested by Macdonald Institute. Pour boiling water on the peaches (blanch) for 1 minute. Then dip in cold water. The skin will come off very easily, and the rosy hue will remain on the peach. When a recipe calls for corn starch for thickening and there's none in the house, you can substitute one tablespoon of flour for one -ball tablespoon oi corn starch, says the Food and Nutrition Dept,, Macdon- ald Institute. * 1 * Ripe, red, juicy tomatoes — they're wonderful in tossed sal- ads. Add them at the last min- ute. The home economics spe- cialists at Macdonald Institute suggest cutting them the french way. This means vertical wed- ge' instead of horizontal sli- ces. The tomatoes will lose less juice when cut this way. If you like a slight taste of garlic in a salad, try lightly rubbing a garlic clove around the salad bowl before you put the salad in, suggests the Food and Nutrition Dep a r t m en t, Macdonald Institute.
