there are some good hints on actual cooking which apply to moat of the vegetables we use, though unfortunately it is not every cook who remembers them. Vegetables of strong flavour should be cooked in plent,, of water, with about a teaspoonful of salt to the and quart. All green vegetables most others should be put into fast boiling water and cooked rather raand pidly until done. Potatoes Jerusalem artichokes should be put into cold water. Vegetables when cooked should be well drained, whether they are to be served with sauce or not. Do not let them get cold while draining and dieting. Root vegetables are infinitely improved by being served with a good sauce, and to in a less degree this applies leeks, onions, celery, marrow, spinbeans, haricots, and ach, broad seakale, all of which are more appetising and often more wholesome when a suitable sauce is served or incorporated in some wad with them.
