The French kitchen recognizes two kinds of entre¬ mets — entremets de douceur, a course of sweet dishes, and entremets de legumes, a course of vegetables serv¬ ed by themselves quite customary in France. The vege¬ tables are now served with meat or game, sweet dishea as dessert. Sherbet or punch is served before the roast to facilitate the digestion. The “entremets” of fruit is served hot or cold. Sauces are composed of cream or syrup of fruits, according to the style of the fruit. All of the following recipes can be applied to apricots, pine¬ apple, peaches, cherries, pears, apples, strawberries, raspberries, bananas, melons. Add flavor according to desire. The fruit is placed in a light syrup, and flavor¬ ed with vanilla. Rub all white fruits with lemon juice and do not let cook too long. A great many of these entremets can be served in the place of ice cream, Fruits FRUITS Fruits prevent or remove constipation, and often act like a charm upon body and mind; and, eaten with good bread, nothing is equallly palatable or wholesome. — 396 — SWEET DISHES— FRUITS’
