A green vege tal le which is tender and still suc culent at the end of ten minutes’ cooking can be. reduced to a limp and lifeless state in. twenty more.

Uncovered method: Drop vegetables into enuogh rapidly boiling salted water to cover com pletely. Continue boiling gently until tender. “3. Pressure Saucepan Method: The pressure saucepans have re turned to the market in increased variety. In these foods are cooked at above boiling temperatures, in an amazingly short time. The col or. favor and food value of vege tables axe preserved to a high de gree. Follow the manumacturer’s instructions to the letter.
