,~ FOR ~ PLANNING

1. (a) Regular hours for meals served in family groups is important. A happy meal hour will help much to make simple food satisfactory.

2.

Simplicity. (a) Variety in day's meals rather than many foods

at one meal.

( b) Serve one-dish meals often. Meat-vegetable stew, bread, butter

and milk provide a nourishing meal.

3. Variety. ( a) Color - Use natural colors of foods. (b) Texture. Serve something 60ft, something solid, something crisp and something liquid at each meal. (c) Temperature. Serve something hot and something cold at each meal. ( d') Flavor. Use natural flavor of food well seasoned. Serve one or two foods with outstanding flavor in oach meal. Serve a food only one way at ~ meal. (e) Do not use the sam6 foods too constantly from day to day. (f) Suprises are enjoyod. Watch markot and garden for appear-
anco of now, vegetables.

4. Economy. (0.) Plan meals ahead of time. ( b) Make left~overs attractive by changing their form when they appear a socond time at tho tablo. ( c.) Plan for foods that are in season. ( d) Extend tho flavors of meats, cheose, etc., by combining with cereal products. ( e) Plan the whole day's or sevoral days' food rather than each individual meal. A week's plan in advance is helpful. ( f) Think ahead. A garden and canning bUdget will help in plan-
ing every-day meals. Produce as much food as possible. (g) Go to tho store to select moats, fruit and vogetables, if you
must buy them. (h) Buy staple foods in as large quantities as can bo stored
properly.
(i) Prepare for more than one meal at a time if you have proper
storage. (j )' Sorvo all foods as attractivoly as possible. (k) Koep an accurate account of money spent for food Qnd Qn
~ccurate account of home produced foods used.

VEGETABLE &

ARE YOU A GOOD VEGETABLE COOK?

.The effects of cooking vegotables: Food vuluo -. Some of tho food value is destroyed by cooking. Water dissolves the most valuablo food olemcmts. Use as little wator as possible.

Colo.r -- Gro2B vogotables reta.in their color best if left uncovored for first fifteon or twenty minutes.

Red vogetn.blos rotc.in color if 8. teaspoon of vinogr,r is addod to each pint of wc,ter.

White vogeta.bles should bo cookod as short time as possible.

Texture -. Cook until tendor but not mushy. The addition of sodn softens vegetables but destroys food value a.nd is not to be recommended.

Flavor -. Best presorved when cooked whole in their skins. Cook only
until tondQr in a. sma.ll f.'..ruount of saltod water. Sa.lt is best a.dded at the beginning of cooking period.

Ca.ution .- The a.ddition of much fat makes vogotublos difficult to
digest. Soutpern people are inclined to cook too much salt pork in their vegeta.bles.

An excess of fat causos tho brond to be ho~vy and crumbly. Much l~ndling of quick breads tends to cause bread to be tough. The bread should be mixed quickly and baked immediately after mixing. A golden brown crust with very little crumb is desirable.

HOMEM.ADE S'1'lliHED CURDE CHEESE

t6 gallons milk tou,spoon color

~t teaspoon ronnot 4 tablespoons salt

To muke this variety of chooso, you should use sVJoct milk which h:~s been cooled immodia.toly ,liter mHKwg in equal ~uaniHios-fronIilO:dli7J-L"C milking and milk frcm the night be:'ore.

Put into ~ boilor on tho kitchen stovo, ho~t to 85 degrees F., then olovntc the bailor by placing t.wo bricks under it, not removing from st.ove. Put in tho coler us5ng { of c. tCLl.SpOen diluted in Ct cup of cold \Kl.ter, and Bt J".r well in the niJ.k .ci.i'tor aeJ,c:ing the ' ronnot and stirring it ill, the milk
should be allcwocl to bo quiet. until fully coa.gulated, the coagulation should be firm, c"?d whon tho . finger is imwrtcd and moved forward the curd should bread clen,n

. Tho curd is then cut with a knife, vertically into fingers about 3/8 inch wide each wG.Y, cutting two 1;/8.y8, thon pave an egg boutor t:r~ough tho curd from end to end and cutt.ing the fingers into cubes.

After about ton minutos removo the bricks, lotting tho boilor rost on t~o stove c.g"dn, hoc..ting tho contents to 100 degroos F., in a.bout fiftoen lIU.nutes. While hoc:ting, stir so tho o"1tiro mr~ss will be hOCl.tcd uniformly. aftor hooting lift tho boiler, again phcing tho bricks undor it, and stir

-24-
. at intervals of about five or ten minutes until tho pieces of curd hQve shrunken to about one-fifth the original size as when cut, dip out the whey, tilting the boiler, allow the curd to drain and remove boiler from the stove. Pile tho curd in one end and place a brick undor it to facilitate tho drainulg. After ten or fifteen minutes, and when the temperature has dropped to about 90 degrees, add salt, 4 tablespoonsful for each 6 gallons of milk. stir tho salt in well, and allow about ten minutos for it to dissolve, put the curd in thQ .hoop which has beon lined with cloth bandage and pross. '~ter about ton minutes remove the curd and straighten out the bandago und put in the press again for about 24 hours. Remove and put on the shelf to dry out, turning it over oach day; it should bo dry enough to puraffin in about tvlO days.
To paraffin, place ~ bucket of water on the stovo with ~bout a pound of para.ffin in it and boil until the pc.raffin is wall r:lelted, then reLlOVO froLl the steve and [~s soon as the contents of tho bucket aro no longer boiling, dip the cheese slowly into the bucket until it is entirely ir.rr.lorsed, aftor a ninute or loss, ronovo, allowing the paraffin to harden. It cun then bo placod on the shelf. It should be placod in a cellar and turned ovor fron day to Qa.y. It should be ready to oc.t in a f.1onth or three weeks, ospecia.lly for those who like fresh cheese.
Cheese made this way should be consumed in about thirty days; it shoull not be kept much longer except in a cold place or a refrigerator. A cellar in spring, f~ll or winter, if protected from freezing, woula be all right and might be all right in summer if not too warm.
In winter when tho night's milk muy havo beon bolow 50 degrees F., most of the time the addition of a pint or a quart of sour milk should bo roD.de. This ~ill not be neces~~ry in VKlrm weather.
