Oriental cookery makes use of
curry powder much the same as
American cookery docs salt. This
condiment, made up of sixteen or
more spices, is delightful with
lamb. Lamb curry following the
recipe beiow is ideally served with
hot rice. Accompaniment might be
bowls of shredded coconut, chut
ney, raisins, chopped peanuts. Add
hot rolls, a dessert of ice . cream,
almond cookies and hot tea.

Some Coffee Making Rules
We're not going to get in the
hassle over coffee costs. Supply
and demand have been working
on our economy since time began.
Somthing, however, can be done
about coffee making. High prices
should be a challenge to many to
make better coffee; to give more
families less grounds for com
plaint. Docs your husband rave over
somebody else's coffee, but not
yours? Or do other husbands ask
you confidentally how you make
such good coffee? You can be in
the latter class by following these
basic rules:
Coffee Making Rules
Buy good coffee in the first
place. It costs less in the long
run. Be sure the coffee you buy
is fresh and that it is the proper
grind for your coffee-maker.
Make certain that your coffee
maker is sparkling clean and that
means a thorough, sudsy scrub
bing after each use. Just rinsing
is not enough.
When you brew coffee, the cor
rect proportion of coffee to wa
ter, for most tastes, is one stand
measuring tablespoons) of coffee
for each of a measuring cup
(a measuring cup is 8 ounces) of
fresh cold water drawn from the
cold tap. Water from the hot tap
is apt to give coffee a flat taste
because it is tired, having stood
around in the tank all that time.
Finally, brew to the full capa
city of your coffee maker for best
results. Never brew to less than
a4 of its capacity. In other words,
don't try to make 4 cups of cof
fee in an 8,-cup maker or a coupla
cups in a 4-cup coffee-maker.
