Here we made Peanut. Soup Creole, Southern Pork Chops, Vegetable Sauce Piquante and used it In a fruit salad dressing. Feeding the Family By ZOLA VINCENT Food Editor Peanut Butter Good for Things Besides Sandwiches . The peanut is a legume and belongs to the same family as peas and beans. Peanut butter was invented in 1890 by a St. Louis physician seeking a nu tritious, easily digested and high-protein food for some of his patients: didn't get out of the health food category un til about 1920. Today peanut butter is a favorite food of millions of growing boys and girls; is ac claimed by Boy Scouts of two generations as most popular sandwich food. We rescued some of it from the sandwich makers and put it in recipes; ' found it perfectly delicious, Nutritionists say that pea nuts and peanut butter are probably the most nutrition ally valuable food in daily use today by the American public. All peanut butter is not the same. There is a dis tinct taste difference between brands; variations in texture and spreadability. Peanut Soup Creole Vt cup chopped onion, 2 tablespoons peanut oil 1 tablespoon flour lVz teaspoons salt J2 teaspoon celery salt Vz cup peanut butter 2 cups milk 2 cups tomato juice. Saute onion in peanut oil until tender but not browned. Add flour and seasonings. Blend in peanut butter. Add milk gradually, stirring to blend. Cook' and stir -until mixture comes to a simmer and is thickened. Add to mato juice and return to heat just until it simmers. Serve hot. Five servings.

Salad Dressing Peanut butter here enhances the flavor of fresh or canned fruits in a distinctive salad.

Makes 1V cups dressing. Oven Browned Potatoes Now and then a homemak- er says that her oven brown ed potatoes "dry out" so she doesn't have them. Potatoes properly cooked around the roast during the last part of 1 the roasting are a genuine flavor treat; make a fine ac companiment to the juicy roast when fixed iike this. Pare medium size potatoes and urecook in water for 10 minutes; then place around roast, sprinkle witn san ano .nner and bake 40 to 60 , winutei or until tender, turn ing occasionally ' and basting with fat in pan. That turning and basting does it! If pota toes are not as brown as you like when roast is done, place them under broiler, turning to brown evenly. Caraway Cabbage Use plentiful, crisp cab bage, quickly cooked, more often for a nutritious hot vegetable. Shred green cab bage; cook rapidly, uncover ed, in a small amount of boil ing salted water for about five minutes or until just crispy - tender. Many cooks over-cook it. Serve at once seasoned with butter, salt, pepper and a sprinkle of cara way seeds. . " ; Broiled Grapefruit It's the peak of the desert grapefruit season. The fruit is unusually large- and juice- packed this season; going to continue that way'. Besides juicing it, offering it halved and sectioned as usual, and adding segments to fruit sal ads, try baking grapefruit as a dessert occasionally. Allow half a grapefruit per person. Section it as usual being careful not to cut through the membranes. Re move center core. Place grape fruit halves .in a baking dish, cut sides up. On each put a tablespoon of brown sugar, honey or maple syrup and a dot of butter. Broil slowly five to , eight minutes until tinged with brown.
