With the Young Housekeeper.
When cooking peas or squash or other green vegetables, add one teaspoonful sugar to each quart of water used. It will bring out the flavor of the vegetable and is very agreeable, especially with peas cooked with cream. Hot chocolate, unsweetened wafers qnd crystallized prunes form a dainty course for luncheon or supper. A friend who is an excellent cook tells me that she airways puts into her sponge cake the grated rind of an orange and a tablespoonful oi* two of the juice. I have tried it with great success, says a contributor to Good Housekeeping. The cake has a delicious flavor and keeps moist almost indefinitely. I also put in lemon or vanilla extract as usual.
