That is if you make delicious and simple candy ice cream you can concoct all sorts of different flavours as easily as you'd' make a plain junket or custard pud-.. ding.
"Any favourite recipe can be used for the foundation cream. Junket, custard, mousse, parfait, ice and sherbet 'may be flavoured and sweetened with the candles. All the hard varieties of candles, chocolate coated or plain, can be used without additional sugar, but some of the cream candles may require a little extra sugar.
One-half pound of candy is enough to sweeten and flavour one quart of custard or other foundi̟- tlon mixture.
If the candy is thoroughly. crushed and allowed to dissolve
in the foundation cream before freezing, an even colour is produc- ed. An attractive, mottled effect is obtained if the candy is rather coarsely crushed and added to the cream mixture just before free- zing. There will be bits of undis- solved candy which retain their colour sprinkled through the fro- zen mixture.
Following are two basic recipes which can be varied by use of different candles,
Peppermint Stick Cream
One pound red and white pep- permint stilk candy, 6 cups thin cream, i teaspoon salt.
Scald cream in double boller Remove from heat and add salt and finely, crushed candy.
Cool and turn into freezer mald. Pack in six parts lee to one partice cream salt and let stand several hours. Serve plain or with hot chocolate sauce, as preferred.
If you want to use this recipe In a mechanical refrigerator, stir 1 tablespoon softened gelatine in- to the scalding hot cream, stir- ring until gelatine is thoroughly dissolved.
Marshmallows can be quartered and dissolved in the hot cream. is is splendid for an iceless re- frigerator top, making gelatine unnecessary.
Chocolate coated molasses chips can be crushed and added to the cream after it has cooled. This makes a delicious rich cream without the effort of melting chocolate and washing an assort- ment of dishes.

Wainui Brittle Ice Cream One pound walnut brittle, eggs, 1 cup whipping cream, 4 cups milk
Beat egg yolks slightly. Scald milk and bent into egg wolks. Cook in double boller, stirring constantly until mixture coata spoon.

Dixie Salad.
This is an American recipe which is rather unusual, and gives a delicious salad. Prepare a head of lettuce and arrange it in a salad bowl: place over these some!· LAMB À LA LYONNAISE thin slices of raw apple, and al- ternate with quarters of toma- toes and the neatly cut whites of hard-boiled eggs Chop the "rest" of the white of egg and grate the yolks," sprinkle them over with decprations, and serve with a cream salad dressing.
Tomatoes And Pineapple This again comes from America, and would he an unusual galad indeed. Dip four tomatoes in boiling water, and remove the skins at once take a slice from the top of each tomato and scoop at the more moist portion of the top; sprinkle with salt and stand the tomatoes upside down for a time: then fill them with a mix- ture of pineapple cut in
very small cubes, chopped walnuts, or: other nuts, mixing them with mayonnaise before adding them to the tomatoes. Place the toma-, toes on a cool looking bed of let- tuce leaves and serve at once.
You will want a leg of lamo for summery" way of providing p-good- meal. Melt a nice piece of but- ter in a braising pan, and colour the leg all over without browning it unduly, Then cover it with warm water.. and let this boil quickly away..
Now put some more butter into the pan, and this time brown the leg well. Then add a little warni water, with a spoonful of tomato puree, cover the pan and cook slowly for five or six hours.
