MAKING JELLIES AND CREAMS

Those luscious-looking clear jellles, which give so much joy to children and sometimes to adults, have for the majority of people ong draw-back-their food value is negligible. The only people who can with advantage consume food, which appeases the appetite, but is lacking nourishing qualities, are those suffering front obesity. But, although clear jel- lies alone lack the sustenance which is necessary for children and adults of normal size, various valuable foodstuffs, such as milk, cream, eggs, cornflour and 'fruit, can be incorporated with them. producing very attractive summer, puddings.

A packet jelly, jelly crystals, or evan gelatine and some fruit juice from an opened tin of fruit, can be made quickly into attractive and appetising dishes with a little ingenuity in varying the colour and flavour.

3 are, however, There

few points which should be remember- ed in order to obtain satisfactory results. For instance. under nor- mat conditions I oz of gelatine is sufficient to stiffen a pint of liquid, but should a jelly be wanted quickly on a very hot day, when no cool larder is available. the quantity of gelatine should be increased slightly or the quantity somewhat lessened. of liquid similarly, in using packet jeles less boiling water should be added. It may not have occurred to some readers that a means of reducing the time required for setting, a packet. jelly is to add half the quantity of bailing liquid men- tioned, which is sufficient to melt the jelly or crystals, and to add the remainder cold. This liquid over from stewed fruit, the syrup may be water, spare juices left from tinned fruit, or milk

In the latter case. the jelly should be melted in some water frst and allowed to cool slightly before the milk is added, other- wise it is very able to curdle' and. to separate out. This separation of ingredients into a clear and

vexing cloudy portion,, 50

Salads

If carefully prepared salad cap often make success of an otherwise ordinary menu There is no end to the varietise that are constantly being invented.

It will bb found that country mustard grown in boxes is of great BENISELLOW When someth

one expects to turn out a jelly of uniform consistency, can always be avoided by allowing the jelly mixture to cool until it is almost beginning to set, before the milk. custard, white of egg. cream, white sauce, etc., are added

The cost of fresh cream is rat- her high and that cannot there- fore be used regularly for cooking by every house-wife, so experį. ments have been made to produce a jelly mixture of creamy consis tency without its use. A mixture of sugar, cornflour and gelatine, mixed with bolling milk flavoured, coloured and boiled for a minute, effects the result. These creams are very quickly and easily made, especially if poured into a plain wet mould, but to produce, a very attractive Jelly for a dinner party or festive occasions, it is advis able to mask the mould first, The simplest form of carrying out this type of decoration is to pour a small quantity of clear Jelly into the bottom and set in it pieces of cherries, almonds, etc. A much
