HINTS FOR HOMEMAKERS By Irene James, Home Service Director, Virginia Electric I And Power Company > / PI.ENTV OF VEGETABLES! Vegetable cooking has become one ef t 'tf - the Ami'iii Jn nutritional front this fall. Vegeta bles are one of the best sources of mineruls and vitamins, but all too of ten, careless treatment during the cooking process causes much of the vitamin and mineral content to be lost. Careful selection of vegetables in the market, prompt, adequate re frigeration, proper cooking and im mediate use after cooking?all these steps are necessary in keeping as many vitamins and minerals in veg etables as possible. To make these vegetables appeal to the members of the family?they won't eat them just because they're full of vitamins ? proper seasoning and attractive service enter into the picture, too. Three kinds of vegetables are now available?fresh, canned and quick frozen. In buying vegetables on the market, follow these rules: 1. Go to a market that has a quick turnover?You'll be able to choose fresh firm, crisp vegetables. Vege tables of uniform sizes, regular shapes, free from bruises and blem ishes, have the least waste. Buying home-grown vegetables and vege tables in season is a wise idea, for prices are usually low at that time. 2. Vegetables should be washed as soon as they are brought into the kitchen, and then placed immediate ly in the refrigerator in a _ vegetable crisper or in refrigerator bags. Peas and corn should be bought in small quantities so that they may be used at once, so that the sugar responsi ble for their delicate flavor does not turn to starch. Vegetables should not be soaked in water prior to cook ing. unless this is necessary for re moval of insects. (Soaking washes away soluble minerals.) Roots and tubers, potatoes, turnips, beets, etc., should be stored in a cool ventilated place. Cooking Methods for Fresh Vegetables Boiling?is the most popular meth od of cooking vegetables, though more minerals and vitamins are pre served in baking or steaming. The important thing is to use the correct boiling method. 1 Use as little water as possible. Don't throw your vitamins and min erals away. "As little as possible" means literally, just enough to cov er the bottom of the pan, usually from 1-4 cup to 3-4 cup. 2 Cook vegetables as short a time as possible. Just long enough to get them done?until they are tender, crisp. To shorten the cooking time, some "vegetables may be cut into smaller pieces, such as cauliflower, 3. Always use a covered pan. Baking?Potatoes, squash, toma toes and onions may be baked in their skins: they contain enough trm terior moisture to form steam. Oth er vegetables except the green ones, kale, spinach, etc., may be baked in covered casseroles. Cooked in this way, they usually require from two to three times longer to become ten-' der than vegetables boiled on top of range. Follow the same rules as for boiling, that is just enough water _ta cover bottom of pan, and use a tight fitting cover. Use a moderate oven, 350' F. for best results. Steaming ? Steaming is recom mended for carrots, squash, beets, parsmps,~ sweet potatoes and string beans. They may be steamed in a standard steamer or pressure sauce pan. (Follow manufacturers' direc tions for pressure saucepans.) 1. Wash vegetables and prepare for cooking. 2. Place, water In lower part Of steamer. Bring to rapid boil and place vegetables in upper part of steamer. 3. Steam until tender but firm. 4. Remove, and season. A steamer with perforations in the sides and rim, rather than in the bottom is preferred, since steam then condenses directly on the vegetables. Cooking Methods for Canned VEGETABLES To heal canned vegetables (ex cept tomatoes and cofh) drain the liquid into a skillet, boil it down half, add vegetables, heat, season and serve Cooking Methods for Quick Froien Vegetables These vegetables retain the color, flavor and tenderness of vegetables when picked. The vitamin and min eraj. losses are very slight. Quick frozen vegetables areready to pop into the pot. Do not;defrost first, fol-1 low directions on package.
