Cheese Playing Center 



Now that we are "doing sums" in 

 short division with American food, we 

 are ready to profit by the hard-earned 

 war experience of Europe and her 

 struggle on short rations. For instance, 

 in Europe cheese is a very real part of 

 the diet and not, as with us, the "some- 

 thing extra." However, with meat at 

 present prices the American house- 

 keeper thinks hard when told that 

 cheese has about one and one-half as 

 much muscle-building value as beef, 

 pound for pound. She cuts out the 

 "something extra," combines cheese 

 with milk and eggs and makes a dish 

 that rules out the roast, leaving beef 

 for the soldiers and the Allies. Here 

 are a few substantial cheese dishes that 

 may be served sometimes instead of 

 meat. They call for any hard commer- 

 cail cheese, cottage cheese or the cheese 

 like your grandmother used to make, 

 now being revived in the farm kitchen: 

 Duchess Soup — % onion, 2 table- 

 spoons fat, 2 tablespoons flour, 3 cups 

 milk, % cup grated cheese, salt and 

 pepper. Cook the onion in the fat until 

 tender but not brown. Add the flour, 

 then the milk gradually. Cook until 

 smooth, add seasoning to taste. When 

 ready to serve, put one tablespoon of 

 the grated cheese in each plate and 

 pour over it the hot soup. 



Cheese Roll — % cup rice, 1 cup milk, 

 1 tablespoon chopped onion and pars- 

 ley, % cup grated cheese or cottage 

 cheese, Vi cup mashed potato, pepper 

 and salt to taste. Cook the rice in the 

 milk with the chopped onion and pars- 

 ley, then add the mashed potato, pepper 

 and salt. Form into a roll, brush with 

 fat drippings and brown in oven. This 

 roll can be made up with many varia- 

 tions. Bread crumbs, beans and cheese 

 may be combined, using enough of the 

 liquor in which the beans were cooked 

 to moisten the mixture so that it can be 

 made into a loaf. The beans should be 

 mashed. Still another combination is 

 made by substituting for the beans 

 spinach or chard chopped fine. 



Cheese Fondue — 1 cup milk, 1 cup 

 bread crumbs, 1 cup grated cheese, % 

 teaspoon salt. Boil the milk and pour 

 over the bread crumbs, cover and let 

 stand on the stove fifteen minutes. Mix 

 in the grated cheese and add salt and, 

 if desired, a little red pepper or papri- 

 ka. Pour into a greased baking dish 

 and bake twenty minutes. A richer 

 dish may be made by adding two or 

 three eggs. Add the well-beaten yolks, 

 then fold in the whites beaten until 

 stiff. Bake thirty minutes in moderate 

 oven and serve at once. This is really 

 a souffle. Cooked rice may be used in 

 place of the bread crumbs in making 

 this dish. 



Macaroni and Cheese — Besides the 

 familiar dish of macaroni and cheese 

 there are many others not so well 

 known to the average housekeeper. 

 Macaroni boiled in salted water drained 

 and served with either grated cheese or 

 cheese sauce is an easily prepared dish. 

 Be sure that the macaroni is piping hot. 

 Macaroni with cheese custard is par- 

 ticularly good. Place in a greased pud- 

 ding dish two cups of cooked macaroni,
