KITCHEN

neuny every noma matter at aouie
time in her life finds it necessary
to cook for and prepare food for a
convalescent who cannot eat the food
prepared for the
family. '
The returning
strength and good
health of the Inva
lid depends in a
large measure on
the food which he
eats and assimi
lates. His appetite should be tempted.
Custard should be velvety as cream
If it is to be served ; one that Is over
cooked and separated Into whey
should be eaten by some other mem
ber of the family and a fresh one pre
pared for the one who Is ill
For the person who Is ill In bed,
the meal time should be the Joyous
time of the day, an oasis In the mo
notony of the long day.
It is worth while to bring to bear
upon this matter all the artistic in
genuity one possesses, as variety and
element of surprise and making the
tray and all food appealing to the eye,
are most important
Never serve an invalid pie or pud
ding which is rich and not easy of
digestion. Pastry Is for those who
are well and able to digest It One
may purchase small cartons of junket
tablets of various flavors or the plain
ones. Add, after dissolving in a table
spoonful of water to milk that has
been warmed, flavor and sweeten and
pour Into a pretty cup or sherbet
glass to stiffen. If cream Is allowed,
a spoonful will top the junket when
served. Have all such foods nicely
chilled and enrnlshed. M ,
Prune Souffle. This Is for an indi
vidual recipe. Take one egg white,
four tablespoonfuls of mashed cooked
prunes, one tablespoonful of sugar, a
pinch of salt and cream of tartar.
Beat the egg white, adding the cream
of tartar, add salt and a few drops of
vanilla. The prunes are folded In
after they have been put through a
rlcer or a sieve, riace in a buttered
ramekin, set into hot water and bake
until light and brown. Serve with
prune Juice or whlpnrd cream.
