{WHERE} Vegetable Left-Overs. The English have an odd way 0f using left-over vegetables tor 3 WW pretty as well as a. palatable dish. It is called vegetable mould and can be made from almost any combination of vegetables. Rub cold cabbage through a wire sieve, .180 some cold carrots and turnips, k999ng each vegetable separate. Add to each a. little melted butter And season with pepper and Salt- :Grease a. small mould and put the Vegetables in in layers. Then bake or steam until the mould is hot all through. Turn out carefully and Serve. Other .vegietables may be used in the same way. and the light- er the color of the vegetables the more unusual and attractive the mould will be. “Colcannon” is another English dish, simple to prepare and seldom «seen in this country. This.is made from cold left-over cabbage and po- tatoes. Cut the potatoes in slices and fry brown .in dripping; when they are browned add the sliced cold cabbage and fry lightly to- gether. Season well and serve. A puree of peas, made in very much the same manner, offers a so- lution for left-over peas, and may also be made with the dried peas if they are soaked and “boiled a. suf- ficiently long time. Mash and press the boiled peas through a sieve. Place them in a saucepan and stir into them enough hot milk and pep- per and salt to well moisten and art. Buttered toast, which makes a very good luncheon dish, is made from slightly stale bread. Heat a dish and stand it over hot water; toast several evenly sliced pieces of bread and spread them generously with slightlv softened butter. Sprinkle with salt; place them in the hot dish and stand for a, minute or two in a. hot oven; serve in a covered dish. ‘ Milk toast is delicious when pro- perly made, 'but it is so simple that people are apt to make it careless~ ly. Here is a recipe that, faithfully followed,‘ina.kes perfect milk toast. Make a, dry toast, spread with butâ€" ter and sprinkle with salt. Place it in the dish in which it is to [he serv- ed. Pour over it a little boiling wa. ter; cover and place in the oven ,for I few minutes to steam. Put into a. saucepan one tea.- spoonful of :"but-ber. When it 'bub- bles. stir in a- teaspoonful of flour and let it. cook without coloring. Add slowly, stirring all the time, one cupful of milk. Cool: until kllghtly thickened and add a salt,- apounful of salt. Pour this thickem ed milk over the softened toast just before serving.
