Blue Ribbon Dessert . . . Lemon Custard Pie (See Recipes Below) Favorite Desserts “We like desserts that take fruits, but use little sugar,” is the verdict many homemak ers give on the dessert problem. Thus, I’m includ ing in today’s col umn several des serts that take citrus fruits now in season—fruits that mean quick-pick-up from tired ness because of the good nutritional values. As regards the sugar question, most homemakers are finding they can spare some sugar for cooking or baking, and that is why our des serts take some of that sweetening. Don’t starve that sweet tooth en tirely, for the body needs some car bohydrate foods daily to meet the large demands of daily energy. These dessert recipes are tailor made to fit your budget and demand for sweets. Pie’s a favorite, and especially so when it’s made with a cornflake crust and luscious lemon custard filling: •Lemon Custard Pie. Crust: ^ 1% cups cornflakes VA cups sifted flour *A teaspoon salt % cup shortening 3 tablespoons water Crush cornflakes into fine crumbs; mix well with flour and salt. Cut in shortening with pastry blender until mixture looks like cornmeal. Mix with water just to hold together and let stand in icebox for about 2 hours. Roll dough about % inch thick, line pie pan with pastry and bake in a hot oven (450 degrees) about 15 min utes. Cool and fill shell with: Lemon Custard: 1 cup milk $4 cup sugar V* teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon grated lemon rind 4 tablespoons cornstarch H cup water 3 eggs, separated 1 tablespoon butter 6 tablespoons lemon juice 6 tablespoons sugar for meringue Bring milk, sugar, salt and lemon rind to boiling point over direct neat. auu turn* / starch which has been dissolved in a little water and cook in double boiler for 5 min utes.

Top with meringue made by beating in 6 ta blespoons of sugar into the egg whites, slowly, and whipping until it stands in peaks. Bake in a 300-de LYNN SAYS: The Score Card: Use sauer kraut with pork if you like it. No kraut will be canned, but the USDA is helping producers to put it up in barrels. It’s said barrel packed kraut has a superior fla vor. The postman may ring twice but the laundryman can’t. Laun dries may not deliver clean clothes in the morning and pick up soiled ones in the afternoon. Everything must be done at the same time. War industries need gas, so it is suggested you save on gas, in every possible way if you are a gas user. Economize it in cook ing, water heating and refrigera tion. It looks like nationwide graded meat is just around the corner. The only thing holding it back is a shortage of trained government graders. Now, three out of four “big” meat packers use grad ing. • I i .
