Some Hints for the Home Cook

M

.It. puzzles me to find that the Lew cook's fried potatoes were abby, for he assured me that the fat was always boiling before he put in the chips. Then it oc- curred to me that possibly he had omitted to dry the slices well be- fore dropping them into the pan. and this proved to be the ex- planation. The moisture from the been cut vegetable had just enough to prevent crispness. Some chets advocate slipping the potato slices into the oven for a few minutes before trying in or- But der to ensure evaporation. unless timed to a second, this method is apt to bring about a certain lack of favour, some es- sential quality having been dried out. It is better to dry with a soft, clean cloth.

Fish should be thoroughly pat- ted dry before is grilled or fri- ed. And further care in eliminat- ing moisture is implied in the four-dredging, which is a factor. in bringing about the golden- brown hue. Neither fish nor po- tatoes put into boiling fat, will splutter up at the cook. if they are dried beforehand. By follow- ing this rule. he will not only avoid risk of fat-scalding, but will have less work to do tri clean- ing his cooker.

If you have a garden in which to swing a wire salad-basket, you will dry your lettuce and endive in this vigorous fashion before you so much as shew it the salad- bowl. But if no such amenity is yours. then you must keep handy a specially absorbent salad cloth to dab on each leaf before you break it up with your fingers. It" Is amazing how much water a small lettuce can hold in its cor- rugations arid creases.

If using blanched almonds for A cake or a pudding, be very sure that you dry them off first. They .will not only be crisper, but will have an added favour. A few minutes in the oven also improves walnuts or peanuts.

To revert to another side of domesticity, never use any soap ory candles until. by exposure to the air. you have dried out some of the moisture proper to their manufacture. Bome domestic ex-. perts counsel keeping both for a {welve month th order to secure the greatest amount of resistance in them,
