Mozzarella cheese slices From The Desk Of Illinois State Council On Nutrition by Virginia Hill BEANS-A GOOD FOOD Dried beans were probably one of the most important mainstays for the people who helped settle and develop our nation. Dried beans traveled to California and Alaska with the gold miners and the silver miners, , and they were spread throughout the Old West with pioneers and covered wagons. Since the beans were easily stored, they required no special handling, except that they had to be kept dry. Beans are good sources of iron, thiamine and niacin. But they are also high' in calories. Dried beans certainly can never be put in the category of fast foods unless you open up the can and eat the baked beans. In order for dried beans to keep so well, the beans are dried to a moisture content of about 10 percent. This moisture content must be replaced when beans are to be used. That is why it takes so long to soak and cook dried beans. Before using, dried beans need to be soaked or rehydrated in water to replace that moisture lost in drying. A good rule of thumb is to use two to three cups of water for each cup of dried beans. And after soaking, dried beans still need to be cooked. Plan on at least two hours of simmering for each pound of beans. If you live in a hard water area, you might need to increase both the soaking and the cooking time in order to get tender beans. Also, older beans tend to be drier and therefore take more time to cook. When planning how many beans will feed how many people, remember that one pound of dried beans measures about two cups, • and beans triple in volume when they are soaked and cooked. So one cup of dried beans yields three cups of cooked beans; therefore, a pound of dried beans yields six cups of cooked beans. If beans foam when you cook them, try adding one tablespoon of butter, margarine, or oil. The foaming will stop and the flavor will not be altered. Another problem you may have is that the skins of the beans will burst when they are cooking. This does not matter if you are making bean soup, but beans for salads should be nice and whole. Try simmering the beans more gently and stirring them more carefully so they will not stick to the bottom of the pan. Dried beans will keep almost indefinitely when stored in their commercial package or in a tightly covered container. Do not keep dried beans in the refrigerator since the moisture present will in terfere with the keeping quality. Cooked beans can be covered and kept in the refrigerator for four to five days. Cooked beans can also be frozen and kept up to six months. Per pound, beans are probably one of the most inexpensive foods that you can buy. And when com bined with a small amount of meat such as ham, they can provide an excellent source of protein.

PAGE 3 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 20,1W2 GARDEN Palms Are Popular For Indoor Use The camedorea, or feathers palm, is popular for indoor use because of its size--a maximum of six feet--and the fact that it will thrive under fairly humid conditions. Native to Mexico and Central America, camedor ea grows naturally in the shade of tall trees and does not like direct sunlight. The trunk of the camedorea is somewhat like bamboo in ap pearance. The pinnate leaves are bright green. Both flowers and young shoots are edible. The plant requires a wood land type soil of peat, with an equal mixture of loam and sand. Propagation is achieved through division in the spring. Frequent, but not excessive, wa tering is recommended. i Beautiful foliage makes the cabbage palm an indoor favor ite. Stiff and leather-like lan ceolate leaves may be various shades of green, with stripes or margins of red, purple or cream. This plant likes light, but not direct sunlight, requires humid ity and warmth, reacts to sud den temperature changes. The cabbage palm is com mercially propagated by stem cuttings placed in sandy loam and peat. The plant requires frequent watering and spraying during summer, but much less during wintertime.
