Smorgashord, _ Secrets Told | —Jn-New-E Book.-
1 Swedish Dishes Fine. | For Sunday Supper | By ELIZABETH TOOMEY | United Press Staff Correspondent { NEW YORK, Nov. 11—The mys-| teries of a Swedish smorgasbord | are explained, recipe by: recipe, in a new cookbook." Not only does author Anna Ol-| son Coombs give advice on what |
to put on the plate first when .
approaching a smorgasbord as a guest, but she gives recipes for some of the unusual dishes in “The Smorgasbord Cookbook” (A. A. Wyn), “The smorgasbord on the whole fs a meal in itself and is eaten according to the general order of | any full-course menus: One starts with fish and continues through, meats, omelets and vegetables, finishing with authoritative
cheese before approaching the
dessert,” Miss Coombs, explains./
After the first course of her-| ring, the author suggests taking, a clean plate before going on to.
the next helping, “or else the en-
tire meal will have a pervasive herring flavor.”
In-Between Recipe
The hostess who adds a couple of the typical smorgasbord dishes to a Sunday night buffet supper will find they often take time to| prepare, but the effort makes won-! derfully tasty dishes from inexpensive ingredients, Often the] cooking can be done well ahead | and the dishes re-heated just be- | fore serving.
Here is one of the recipes ‘Miss | Coombs includes in a group of] “little warm dishes” to be eaten| in between the main servings at a | smorgasbord or a buffet, ~ » ~
