All cooks do not understand the different effects produced by hard and soft water in cooking meat and vegetables. Peas and lx?ans cooked in hard water, containing liine or gypsum, will not boil tender, because these substances harden vegetable caeeine. Many vegetables, as onions, boil nearly tasteless in soft water, because all tl»e flavor is boiled out. The addition of salt often checks this, as in the case of onions, causing the vege tables to retain the peculiar flavoring prin ciples, besides such nutritious matter as might 1« loot in soft water. For extracting tho juice of meat to make a broth or soup, soft water, unsalted and cold at first, is best, for it much more readily penetrates the tis sue; but for boiling where the juices should be retained, hard water or soft water salted is preferable, and the meat should be put In while the water is boiling, so as to seal up the pores at once. —Journal of Chemistry.
