k. large baking dish is necessary for this. If you have no casserole, you might use a roaster with a cover. Grease the baking dish. Cut the onions in half and place them in the bottom of the dish. Trim the pork chops. Core the apples. Cut each apple into 4 or 5 rings, and stick the end of a pork chop through these rings. Then place the pork chops and apples over the layer of onions and sprinkle lightly with flour. Fill up the spaces with the potatoes, thinly sliced. Don't forget to season the layer of onions, and then the layer of meat, apples, and potatoes, with salt and a little pepper. Pour in the boiling water and cover the baking dish. Cook until tender, which will take a little over 1 hour. Then remove the cover of the baking dish. The food is ready to serve when it is a rich golden brown. 23 APPLE SALAD Select medium-sized apples, pare and core them. Cook in a sirup made in the proportion of 2 cups of water and 1 cup of sugar. The sirup should cover the apples, which should be cooked in a covered pan. Red cinnamon candies, added to the sirup, give the apples a pretty rose color. After the apples are cooked and chilled, fill with cream cheese, softened and seasoned with a little salt, a little paprika, and a little finely chopped green pepper. If you like, you might form the cheese mixture into balls, roll them in ground nuts, and serve beside the apple. Serve the apples on crisp lettuce leaves; garnish with mayonnaise. FRIED CARROTS AND APPLES Select 6 medium-sized carrots and 6 tart apples. Scrape the carrots and cut them lengthwise into thin slices. Pare the apples or leave the peelicgs on, whichever you prefer. Core the apples and cut them into slices about a fourth of an inch thick. Fry the apples and the carrots in fat, prefer- ably in a large iron pan or skillet. Place them in single layers and cover the pan tightly. Cook till well browned on one side, then turn. Sprinkle with a little salt and sugar. Serve on a hot platter, first a layer of carrots, then a layer of apples, so the two can be served together. APPLE-CABBAGE SALAD To make this salad, select good, tart, eating apples, peel, €ut into small cubes, and mix with finely chopped cabbage. You may use equal proportions of apple and cabbage, more apple, or more cabbage. The cream-salad dressing is made as follows: Beat Yi piiit of thick whipping cream until stiff; add 4^/2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of fresh-grated horse-radish, a grating of onion, a few drops of tabasco, and salt to taste. These seasonings can be changed ac- cording to individual preference, but be sure there is enough dressing in proportion to the cabbage and apple. Just a dash of cayenne pepperApple Salad may be used if you do not have tabasco. If the horse-radish is in vinegar, use only 2 table- spoons of lemon. Half a pint of cream makes enough dressing for about 3 cups of apples and cabbage, which will serve six people. Mix the cream dressing with the apples and cabbage. Serve on lettuce. 24 VEGETABLE VITAMIN SOUP 1 cup cubed carrots. 1 cup chopped onion, 1^ cups celery, chopped. 1 cup cubed turnips. 2 cups cubed potatoes. 2 quarts meat stock. 1 cup tomato juice. 2 tablespoons chopped green pep- per. 6 tablespoons butter. 3 teaspoons salt. 34 teaspoon pepper.Vegetable Vitamin Soup
