-_ Do You Know What fo Look
For When Buying Asparagus?

When buying fresh aspar-
agus, look for stalks that are
green and tender almost the
entire length. The tips should
be well formed and tightly
closed—spreading tips indicate
overmaturity.

Very thin, wilted or
crooked stalks are likely to be
tough or stringy. One pound
will usually serve three to four.

Fresh asparagus: deterio-
rates rapidly at temperatures
above $2 deg. F. The original
tenderness of asparagus is

| preserved at low temperatures
and also, the Sugsricontents
which contributes so_much to
the flavor, is not diminished at
low storage temperatures,

The bottom of asparagus
stalks should be kept moist, if.
possible—that is the reason it is
so often displayed standing on
wet moss or other cbsorbent
material,

To prepare for cooking,
break off each stalk as far down
as it will snap easily; wash
thoroughly and remove any
scales. Leave stalks whole or
break into one inch lengths.

To cook the whole stalks
you can divide the cleaned
asparagus into serving-size

* bunches and tie each with clean
string.

‘Then stand upright in a
small amount of boiling salted
water in tall pan, such as
bottom part of double boiler.
Cover and.cook 15 to 20
minutes or just until tender.

+ Lift out by catching tines
of fork in string; place on

the stalks, while the rising |

steam cooks the tender heads

so that the whole stalk is
uniformly cooked. :
: Whole stalks may also be
cooked covered in a skillet or
large bottomed saucepan, in a
small at sunt of boiling sale
water, For easy handling
peopte like to fold fll (doubled)
into a strip long enough to Lift
from the pan; then cradle the
spears in this and lower it into
boiling water to cook 16 min-
utes.

‘A quick method is to cut
the spears into thin diagonal
slices; space in frying pan or
large sleve for easy handling
and lower into enough boiling
saltzd water to cover. Cover
and cook about three minutes,
‘or just until tender.

Asparagus is a very versa-
tile vegetable. Lemon, almond,

garlic, onion or curry butter, .

hollandaise, mushroom or
cheese sauce are among its
favorite companions,

Sauteed onion, muchroom,
crisply fried bacon, chopped
bard-cooked eggs are all deli-
cious when sprinkled lightly
over the spears,

A POEM

‘The iridescent dawn made.its way
through the bleak clouds.

and wen!

he. Towers lied thelr heads for a kiss

The: valley awaits,

The grass sheds its morning tears,
When spent—the blades come to life
In respect—the earth takes another
cunqueationed sip.

‘The earth fears so little,

The people so. much,

Dawn comes, the valley awakes

“The morn’s brought us freshness

a reason for life.

Somewhere one stirs, very faintly,

in pain, from a thought so distant

so spent that the distance returning
causes feelings so very much the same. .
