Three ways YOU can help on the “home front”

Cooks Foods Properly U

se very little water in cook-

ing vegetables. Many vitamins contaired in vegetables are soluble in water. Boiling vegetables in loo much water drains them of their valuable vita. min content. Bring vegetables to a boil quickly,

then turn the gas flame

down to simmer position.

Roast meats at low temperatures and reduce shrink. age as much as 20%. Broil foods whenever possible instead of frying. Again, many vitamins in meats

are fat soluble and frying will destroy these nutri. tive elements. Broiling alse will help retain the delicious and healthful juices. :

Avold Waste Use leftovers so they will lose their identity, then they will be eaten. Turn vegetables into salads and plan a casserole dish at least once a week. Cook foods in their skins, or peel very thin

whenever possible. Net

but most of the nutritive elements are near the sur-

face of vegetables.

Cooking Hints Do not add soda to vegetables for

"color." Soda destroys
