When you serve fresh vegetables, properly pre pared, you are providing your family with re quired vitamins . . , using foods in plentiful sup ply, and best of all, offering them delicious, deli cate flavor obtainable in no other way. Here are tome tips on vegetable cookery that will pay you dividends in ease of preparation as well as flavor. For strong-flavored vegetablea, such as onions, cauliflower, etc., use sufficient boiling salted water to cover the vegetable; cook uncovered, drain, and discard cooking water, for it contains dis agreeable sulphur compounds, For spinach, Swiss chard, and other leafy greens, lift washed leaves into a large Biucepan contain ing 1 to 2 cups rapidly boiling salted water, and cook rapidly, uncovered, turning greens once or twice with fork and spoon. Cook until barely tender. Drain and discard water, for it contains objectionable compounds of oxalic acid. Season Ao taste with butter or margarine, salt and pep per, and serve garnished with lemon wedges. For red cabbage and beets, cook in small amount of boiling water to which 4 teaspoon vinegar or lemon juice for each cup shredded vegetable has been added, in order to retain bright red color. Panning vegetables: This method of cooking vege tables in a covered pan with a minimum amount of water just enough to produce steam is ex cellent for nearly all green and succulent vege tables. Shred, dice, or cut vegetable fine. Into a shallow pan with tight-fitting cover put to XA cup water, add 1 to 2 tablespoons butter, mar garine, oil, or bacon or ham fryings, and heat to boiling. Add the freshly shredded vegetable, (3 to 6 cups), salt lightly, cover tightly, and cook until barely tender, but still slightly crisp 5 to 20 minutes will be ample for most vegetables. Amount of water and shortening and time of cooking will depend upon the kind and amount of vegetable, and on the type of utensil. Less water will be needed when a heavy saucepan is used, as in so-called "waterless cooking". Water should be practically all cooked away when vegetable is . done.
