peppers and onion, add the rice, and add the stock. Place it all in a deep dish and allov^ it to remain in the oven until very hot, when it is then ready to serve.

After the rice has been boiled and removed from the fire, add to it the above ingredients, and let the whole boil slowly for 1 hour longer. The almonds must not be cut, or crushed, but put in whole. MACARONI The wholesome, nourishing qualities of macaroni have never been fully appreciated by the average housewife. As a nour- ishing food it offers much the same nutrition as white bread; but unless it is eaten to excess it is less apt to cause indiges- tion than the so-called staff of life. Its flavor depends largely upon the manner in which it is cooked ; whether it is offered alone, or in combination with some vegetable or meat. To prepare macaroni properly, boil it rapidly for 30 min- utes, in boiling, salted water. To keep the tubes of the macaroni from sticking together, the water must be kept at a galloping boil, as with rice. When it is done, it should be turned into a colander, and thoroughly rinsed under the cold-water tap, to remove the loose, pasty starch on the outside of the tubes. After drain- ing it can be creamed, or finished in any desired way. Each nation has a different way of preparing macaroni.
