Speaking Of HOMEMAKING By Mrs. Elizabeth G. Parham Home Service Representative Carolina Power & 1 ight t o. WINDOW BOX HERBS If you have a sunny window-box or a garden corner near the kitchen door, you can grow many delightful flavors in herbs. Chives, parsley, marjoram, rosemary, sum mer savory, sweet basil, thyme, and rose geranium are all suitable and need only' well-drained work able soil, weeding and cultivation. Mint grows almost anywhere but must have damp soil. Sage grows best in a dry, warm garden with some shade. To dry herbs, tie stalks with leaves loosely' in small bunches, and hang in a well ventilated sun ny room' or attic. Parsley should be dried in the oven. After dry ing for several days, strip off leaves and rub them through a sieve. Store in a tightly covered glass jar. To use herbs, use small amounts enough to dominate the dish. A pinch of dried herbs may be add ed to hot dishes at any time. Fresh herbs should be added near the end of the cooking period. Fresh herbs often become bitter if over cooked. Herbs should be added to cold dishes a while before serving as the flavor develops slowly. Basil: .Use in salads, with tomatoes, peas, potatoes, eggs, Don't Argue with the Ump All he does is to interpret the rules that have b een given to him. • We’re in the same position.
