Stews are a neconomical dish
and it can be varied by the addi
tion of liquids such as, tomato
juice, cream of mushroom soup,
tomato sauce or sour cream.
Some of the seasonings which
may add just a bit of tang to the

whole cloves or peppercorns, one
small clove of garlic finely chop
ped, one teaspoon Worcestershire
sauce, one tablespoon catsup, one
tablespoon celery seed or one-half
teaspoon celery salt. These various
measurements are for one pound

When getting the vegetables for
the stew just put in the ones which
meet your family’s approval and
then you are certain it will lie
readily eaten.

of several vegetables and is known
as:
