Mint On The

Menu

THE Bavour of fresh mint adds

both to the attractiveness and digestibility of various dishes.

When making mint sauca do not be sparing with the sugar, as it helps to neutralise the acidity of the vine gar. Sprinkle some of the sugar on the leaves beforo chopping them. They will chop up finer and more quickly, and your fingers will got so stained. Just cover the mint with bolling water before adding the vinegar and it will retain a beauti- ful green colour.

Here is a good recipe for the

matice.

Chop up finely the leaves from six to eight sprigs of mint and put them into the tureen with eight lumps of sugar. Pour over them two lable- spoonfuls of boiling water, stir well, and leave for a few minutes. Then add about half a pint of vinegar. Satice for Storing

If you want mint sauco for winter use, prepare this way:--For each lb of chopped mini bell a pint of Vinegar. Place the leaves in A tureen or basin and pour over the bolling vinegar. Add a pint of bolling vinegar and stir with a wooden spoon. When cold, bottle and cork tightly. When you want this, to two teaspoonfuls add two tablespoonfuls of boiling water and fresh vinegar.

Mini vinegar Is a real old- Inshloned country preparation, and It is excellent for flavouring solad dressings. It is quite simple to make. Take the

Gruised young leaves and put them into a wide- mouthed bottle. Cover with cold vinegar, and close down. Leave for from a fortnight to three weeks. strain off into a bottle, and cork down until wonted.

As a Jelly with Lamb

Mint jelly is a delightful addition with mutton or lamb. To prepare il just wipe a pound of sharp cooking apples and slice them up. Cook tili soft In pint of vinogue and strain. For each pint of julee you allow 1 b of sugar, and then bolt fast together, until it will set when tested. Add tablespoonful of finely chopped mint for each pint of juice. Put into sinali pots, tie down, and keep in a cool, dry place.

For mint chutney you require a handful of fresh mint tops or young leaves. Pound, in a mortar or a basin together with a handful of sugar, and continue till the mixture is juicy. Then add four tablespoonfuls-or more if necessary-of vinegar, stir well, and serve.

If you have a supply of mint and want to keep it fresh for a day or two, wash it in water to which a little bicarbonate of soda has been added before stonding it in water. Fruit salad can be improved by the addition of a sprig or two of fresh mint.

If you are going for a picnle, try mint blended with cream cheese Brit attle fresh cream, seasoned with salt and pepper. It makes delicious sandwiches,

Mint can be kept for winter use by putting it in bags, tying the mouths, and then hanging up in a dry place. The sprigs can also be dried in the sun and stored away In tins kept closely shut down. Yet a third method Is to remove the young leaves from the stems. Wash well, and then pour boiling water over. Next dry thoroughly In the oven. Rub the leaves to powder, and store in airlight ting.
