Wash and scrape the carrots, cut in small pieces, and cook in a small amount of boiling salted water. When the car- rots are tender, press them through a sieve or a potato ricer.

APPLE-SAUCE CAKE 1 cup sugar. ^2 cup shortening. 1 cup apple sauce (unsweetened) . 1 cup raisins (chopped) . 2 tablespoons flour. 3^ teaspoon cloves. teaspoon cinnamon. teaspoon nutmeg. 23^ cups sifted flour. 1 teaspoon soda mixed with tablespoons water. 3^ teaspoon salt.

It should be cooked down so that it is not watery and put through a colander to make it smooth. No sugar should be added to the apple sauce. CHICKEN RIZOTTO Pick the meat from the bones of left-over cooked chicken. Stew the bones in enough water to make a quart of broth, adding any left-over gravy or sauce that will furnish chicken flavor. In a large skillet cook slowly in 2 tablespoons of butter an onion which has been minced finely. Do not let 62 the onion brown. To this add the quart of chicken broth. When it boils up rapidly, sprinkle in slowly % cup of rice which has been washed free of surface starch. Cover the skillet. Allow the rice to simmer in the broth for about 25 minutes or until the grains swell and become soft. Shake the skillet from time to time to keep the rice from sticking, but do not stir it unless absolutely necessary. By the time the rice is done it will have absorbed practically all the broth, and the grains will be large and separate. Then add the small pieces of chicken which were picked from the bones, turn the mixture onto a hot platter, and sprinkle it generously with grated cheese. The Italians use Parmesan cheese, but any of the American varieties hard enough to grate will be satisfactory.
