HINTS FOR | HOMEMAKERS i ? i| By Irene James, Home I Service Director, Virginia Electric I And Power Company I A The limiting of sugar may prove? to be a blessing in disguise It may cause us to turn to the abundant and delicious supply of fresh, canned and dried fruits for many of our desserts. Half grapefruit, served after a heavy meal, is a refreshing and delightful dessert Dried prunes, apricots and peaches can be served without any sugar, or with a very small amount if they are cooked in the water 111 which they are soaked. Other fruits, such as grapes, oranges, bananas, plums and peaches can be served as desaerts without the addition of any sugar. Canned fruits, especially those canned in a thin syrup are ready for serving right from the can. If however, we wish to continue to make desserts, we must have recipes which use little or no sugar. Honey, sirup and marshmallows are some of the substitutes used. Fruits also play a large place in this type of recipe since a l.imited amount of sweetening is needed for fruit des <4>riK I1?TI> are a few recipes Wllit'll you might like to try.
