Looking through some old •/ec
ipes the other day, I ran across
one that used to be tuj favorite
summer meal when I was a kid.
On hot summer days when no
one felt like eating a thing, mom
would cook up a big bowl of
cherry soup and dumplings in
the afternoon — chill it — and
serve it cold for dinner.
Just the thought of the de
licious wine red soup and tender
dumplings
soaked in cher
ry broth was
enough to tan
talize my taste
buds. And since
my own family
has a “sweet
tooth" I decid
ed to try out
cherry soup on
them — And did it ever make a
hit!
Here's the recipe, copied from
grandma’s own file:
1 qt. box fresh sour cherries
(not pitted)
1H qts. cold water
% cup sugar
Pinch of salt
Bring to a boil and let boil
until skins break. Turn flame low
and add dumplings.
Dumplings: Beat 1 egg lightly,
adding a pinch of salt and buttei
the size of a hickory nut; then
add 1 tablespoon milk. 14 tea
spoon sugar. Stir in 14 teaspoon
baking powder and enough floui
to make a soft batter. Drop from
end of teaspoon into boiling sour
and cook about 2 minutes. Coo!
in refrigerator — and serve cold
Chilled soups, salads, frui1
Juices, cold meats and seafood ar<
regular summer meals at oui
house. I’ve learned to add an
elegant touch by serving cold
foods surrounded by ice.
A regular set of glassware
"icers” comes in handy for chilled
consomme or seafood cocktails
but I have lots of fun making up
my own ice servers, too.
To make an attractive relish
tray, I line my favorite roll basket
with heavy aluminum foil. Then
fill it with finely crushed ice
and arrange carrot curls, olives,
celery hearts, green onions, rad
ishes, green pepper rings, cucum
ber slices and small hot peppers
— paying particular attention to
color contrasts.
Ordinary glass baking dishes
make fine ice servers, too. Fill
the dish with
crushed ice and
then place glass
es of fruit
in the ice
serve on a buf
fet table.
I was inspired to use a lot of
ice because of the automatic ice
server in my new LP-Gas re
frigerator. It’s actually a minia
ture ice making machine built
right in the freezing compart
ment. We never have to fill ice
trays iit struggle with removing
cubes at our house. Interesting
ice circles are always available
— one at a time or by the bucket
ful.
My husband and I have always
been intrigued by the silent op
eration of gas refrigeration and
when we planned to use LP-Gas
for heating and cooking we de
cided to hitch up our refrigerator
to our back yard “gas well” too.
As a bonus we developed a new
"yen” for all sorts of iced drinks
and chilled foods.

A Bowlful of Salad News
Here’s great news, because there’s a really “new” recipe to add
to the great family of salad \ It’s a hearty supper salad, made with
a base of rice, ready in minutes with packaged pre-cooked rice
What a great blessing these hot, humid days, to be able to pre
pare a meal for your family that’s both hearty and tasty, yet easy
and quick. The added flavor of the ham mingled with the cubes
of pineapple make it one of the most taste-tantilizing salads ever
This is really fine eating for a warm summer evening} ^

QUICK-EASY PECAN RICE TIMBALES

NOW HERE’S A FINE SUGGESTION that’s both new and
' "newsy" . . . chopped pecans in rice timbales for added flavor
and texture. And they’re so simple to make when you use pack
aged pre-cooked rice because this rice requires no “cooking.”
All that is necessary is to add the rice to boiling salted water
and let stand, then mix it with the other ingredients. With your
'own pet cream sauce as the final touch—plus glazed carrots
for color contrast—you have an easy-quick dish with a real
gourmet touch.

Fun to Cook
JUNIORS CAN COOK WHOLE MEALS
Interest in junior cooking is rapidly increasing. With thp
full tide of teenagers yet to come, this interest is likely to
grow. Contributing probably is the trend to younger mar
nages, Digger iamnies ana no
servants. Learning to cook at
a younger age is becoming
more necessary.
The little boys and girls
like to satisfy their creative
natures by helping in the kit
chen. Don’t say “no” to their
request. This is a valuable
part of their learning-by-do
ing. Tiniest tots can be given
simple chores like sifting flour
or washing unbreakab':
