Creative Menus For Cool Meals From The Chowan Herald Kitchen By Mildred Huskins Preparing cool meals can be a challenge. Think cool. Think of all the chilled soups that make such nice beginnings to meals. Vichyssoise comes to mind, but there are many others with great possibilities; grated carrot, leek, spinach, avocado, cucumber, tomato, watercress and msuhroom. They have a creamy base and offer quick preparation. For a delightful mushroom soup, saute sliced vegetables in butter. Mushrooms need tossing with lemon juice to prevent darkening. You have to make certain the leeks, if used, are thoroughly washed since they ten to be gritty unless grown on small hills or with “paper collars,” as Franch gar deners do. Both half and half and dairy sour cream add creaminess. Why not cook in the morning and let it chill until supper? Stuffed vegetables are another answer to a sum mer menu problem. For a delicious and novel idea, scooped-out cucumbers are filled with a peppy mixture of butter, chopped shrimp, and f seasonings. After chilling, slice one-half inch thick and serve with the chilled soup. With soup and cucumbers prepared and chilling, lunch or supper preparations are complete. You need add only hot rolls and fresh fruit to complete the meal.

The other day we entertained about 40 friends at the country club in Raleigh and the cold creamy broccoli soup was served from a silver punch bowl. With the soup, guests selected ham biscuits, tiny cucumber and finger sandwiches, a colorful fruit bowl, tea and coffee. Lemon and cnocoiate tarts were bite bize.
