Almost every kind of food may be purchased in a form requiring only minimum '*of handling in the home kitchen, 7yet there is no denying that a wo- man is proud of her own achieve- Smen ts in the art of home cooking. 'It may only be the icing for the cake of the stuffing for the bird.

We desire a rich brown gravy, a neatly stuffed bird and soft creamy fudge. In many instances the method of preparation makes a difference, so let's review some1 cookery methods today.. 1. Dry bread crumbs should be made from sliced bread that has been dried out in a slow oven until ýcrisp but not brown, then crushed between two layers of wax paper with a rolling pin. 2. To get halved nuts, strike wal- nuts or filberts on the rounded side with -a hammer. Brazil nuts and pecans should be steeped in bot water, then cracked on the end. 3. To blanch almonds, pour boil- ing xater over them and let stand f ive minutes, then rub each nut between the thumb i 'blug and forefinger so that tht meat slips from the pointec end of the skin. Do not soai t more than U~ pound at one L time for they tend to become soggy. 4. To prepare fresh coconut, drain the milk fromn the coco- nut from holes pierced witli a nail through the eyes; crack the sheli wlth a hammer or chisel; pare off the brown rind and grate. 5. To make a good gravy from a roast, pour the fat from the roasting pan into a measuring cup, and then into the frying pan. Measure an equal quanti- ty of flour and sprinkle it into the hot fat as you stir it over moderate heat. Pour a cup of hot water into the roasting pan to rinse out any meat flavour and then add slowly to brown- cd' flour and fat. Let mixture corne to a boil and add more water if too thick. Taste and season. if necessary before serving. 6. To stuff a cleaned bird: prop up the bird to stuff the breast cavity. Fold the wingtips un- der the body so that they will hold the neck skin. If neck is too short tie or sew ends and fasten string around wings. Turn the bird on its back and fi body cavity (stuff but do not pack). Insert poultry pins through each side of opening and lace string over them be- ginning at breast, winding string around tail, crossing it then around each leg beforE tying ends together. 7. To bake 'moist potatoes-in- packets, scrub potatoes, pierce 2 or 3 times with a fork and rub well with bacon fat. Bake in a shallow pan in a moderate aven for 1 heur and 20 min- uites. 8. To make smooth fondant, wivc the sugar crystals from the side of the pan of syrup with wet cheesecloth tied ar- ound a fork. Cool sugar mix- ture when test for soft bail is right. Work candy on a greas- ed platter with a wooden spoon until it is creamy. Knead the creamy mixture until it is free from lumps. 9. To make a creamy fudge: cool fudge mixture when syrup reaches 236 degrees or is at soft-bail stage. Beat fudge with deep strong strokes. Pour candy into greased pan when it thickens and ]Oses its gloss. 10. To caramelize sugar: spread the granulated sugar in a thin layer over the surface of a heavy frying pan. Place over very low heat and let it stand without stirring until a light brown liquid has formed. Stir caramelized sugar cautiously into liquids; the bardened mass which forms will dis- solve eventually in a hot liq- uid. 11. To whip cream- use cream that is twenty-four hours old, thorougrhly chilled and fairly rich (at least 24 per cent). Pour creamn into a deep bowl and beat rapidly until thick. Too long or slow beating caus- es fat to separate. 12. To line pans for fruit mix- tures: use heavy brown paper Or heâvy waxed paper. Always cut the paper to fit the pan- do not; fold into corners. Grease the shiny side of brown paper. 13. To make a sof t coating icing for petite fours: melt fondant candy in a double boiler, then pour over cool cakes placed on waxed paper.
