'Dainiyj^eople

HERE is no part of the meal which demands more thought
than the dessert. We are all content with the good old
standbys for the principal courses, but with desserts it is
different. Our hunger is partially satisfied by the time
they appear, and we are in a more critical mood. We
want something attractive to look at, and something that
will gratify our sense of taste and not make too serious demands upon
our digestion. The pies and hot puddings of our grandmother's days
have waned in popularity, and in their places are to be found cold and
frozen desserts. For the making of these new dishes gelatine is indis-
pensable. It may be used in an almost endless variety of ways. It
makes possible numberless dishes, not less delightful to the eye than
pleasing to the palate, and opens the door to constantly new achieve-
ments in culinary inventions. And gelatine is not limited in Its use to
the dessert course. It does service in the making of other savory
dishes from soup to dessert. It is a boon in the preparation of every
part of the meal.

Knox Sparkling Gelatine is made under the very best sanitary
conditions and from the very best materials, and when it is made into
jelly it produces that clear, sparkling effect which has made it so justly
celebrated.

It is our hope that with the aid of this little book the housewife
will find the making of a great variety of appetizing, nourishing and
attractive dishes easier and more pleasant.

It must be remembered, however, that the recipes in this book are
prepared for use with Knox Gelatine only, and to have good results
no other gelatine can be used.

Knox Sparkling Gelatine is endorsed by the leading Pure Food Ex-
perts, and is used daily in homes and by domestic science teachers and
teachers of cookery in the foremost cooking schools and hospital train-
ing classes in the United States and Canada, and the experience of
these people has taught them to use none but the best.

Each package of Knox Sparkling Gelatine and Knox Acidulated
Gelatine is sold under the positive GUARANTEE of money back if
for any reason you are not satisfied.

Y<^5^

Knox Sparkling Granulated Gelatine is put up in two packages.
No. 1 is the Plain Sparkling (yellow package), and is the original, un-
flavored, unsweetened gelatine. No. 3 is the Sparkling Acidulated
(blue package). Both packages are alike, containing two envelopes of
gelatine, and an envelope of Pink Vegetable Coloring for making a col-
ored dessert, salad or icing for cake, and make the same quantity —
TWO QUARTS of jelly. The only difference between the two packages
is that the No. 3 Acidulated contains an envelope of Lemon Flavoring,
which takes the place of lemon juice and affords a ready prepared
flavoring. The flavoring and coloring are not mixed with the gelatine
in either package, but packed in separate envelopes, thus leaving it to
the purchasers to use them or not as they desire. With the No. 1 Plain
package the natural fruit juices of lemons, oranges, etc., are used for
flavoring, while with the No. 3 Acidulated (Busy Housekeeper's) pack-
age the Lemon Flavormg is furnished in concentrated form ready for
use. All that is added is water and sugar, and the jelly is ready to mold.

Housekeepers will have no trouble in measuring Knox Gelatine,
as it is already measured in two envelopes, each one making one quart
of jelly. This makes it very convenient when less than a full package
is to be used, and being so divided it may be used in serving a small
family as well as a large party.

Birthday Cake
(See Page 41)

QUANTITY OF LIQUID JELLIED BY A PACKAGE OF
KNOX SPARKLING GELATINE

Each package of Knox Gelatine makes TWO QUARTS of jelly —
FOUR TIMES as much as the ready prepared packages on the market
that make but one pint. That is why Knox Gelatine is so economical.

In the summer, however, and especially if the dish is to be served
within two hours after molding, it is advisable to decrease slightly the
quantity of liquid. In making aspic jelly, for molding meat, fish, and
salad, where heavy materials are to be held up, one package of Knox
Sparkling Gelatine will be required for each five cups of liquid. Re-
member that a package (two envelopes) of Knox Sparkling Gelatine
will jell two quarts of liquid, one-half package (one envelope) one quart,
and one-fourth package (one-half envelope) one pint. In trying a new
recipe, estimate the full quantity of liquid required by the recipe, and
see that the quantity of gelatine is proportioned correctly.

TO MOLD AND UNMOLD GELATINE MIXTURES QUICKLY

By the use of crushed ice and rock salt, jelly made with Knox
Gelatine may be molded at any season in one hour. When ice and salt
are not at hand, set the dish containing the gelatine mixture in cold
water, or in salt and water. In winter the mold may be packed in snow,
or covered and set out of doors.

To unmold, immerse the mold to the top in warm — not hot — water;
then slightly loosen the jelly at the edge, turning the mold meanwhile
from side to side, then place serving dish on top of mold and invert and
carefully remove the mold. A delicate jelly cannot be moved easily
after it has been unmolded, so that care must be taken to place it evenly
on the dish. If before unmolding a lace paper doily is placed evenly
over the mold, so that when inverted the doily is between the gelatine
mixture and the serving dish, the jelly can be moved at will on the paper.

CA UTION — The liquid quantities in the recipes in this book are based on Wine MeaS'
urement (U. S. Standard) and are correct. However, when using the Imperial or Metric
System, a quart of which measures more than one quart Wine Measure, this should he
taken into consideration and less water or more gelatine used.

LAYING THE TABLE FOR DINNER OR LUNCHEON

Lay a plate for each person. At the right of the plate place an
oyster fork, soup spoon and knives in the order of use, the one first used
farthest from the plate. At the left of the plate lay the forks, in order
of use, the one first used farthest from the plate. Have the tines of the
forks and the bowls of the spoons turned upward, and the cutting edges
of the knives toward the plate.

Place the napkin, folded, at the left of the forks; or, when soup is
served, if desired, the napkin may be folded and placed on the plate
with a roll or small piece of bread partly folded within it. Set the
glass for water above the knife. If wine glasses are to be used, set
the glass for water above the plate and near the center of the cover,
and set the wine glasses to the right in a half circle, the one to be first
used the farthest to the right and nearest the hand.

SEATING GUESTS AT TABLE

The success of a formal dinner depends greatly upon the selection
of the guests and the order in which they are seated at the table.

The host and hostess should sit directly opposite each other. The
ladies and gentlemen should sit in alternate seats between the host and
hostess. The alternate arrangement may be followed with six or ten
persons, but not when eight or twelve are present.

When dinner is announced the host should enter the dining room
with the guest of honor. Then the men guests should escort the ladies
into the room. The hostess with the man guest of honor should be the
last to enter. The guests should stand back of their chairs until the
hostess is seated, and each man should adjust the chair for the lady he
is escorting and see that she is comfortably seated before he takes his
place at her side.

SERVING FORMAL MEALS

Meals are served either from the dining table or by waitress or
butler from the serving table and pantry. The custom now is to have
the dishes passed to each guest, the meats, etc., being carved into
convenient size for the purpose. They are passed to the left of the
guests. All dishes, glasses, etc., not again required on the table should
be removed from the left when the next course is served.

SERVING THE SALAD

Salad, served with the roast or game (on small chilled plates), is
eaten with the fork provided for that course. A salad fork is supplied
for a salad served as a separate course. This is placed when the table
is laid, according to the position of the salad in the menu, or just before
the salad is passed.

SERVING THE DESSERT

For the dessert course, spoons or forks are usually supplied when
the table is set, or if one prefers they may be placed for this course after
the table has been cleared. They are laid at the right of the space to
be occupied by the plate. When serving the dessert with but one
maid in attendance, and empty plates or plates with finger bowls are
to be set before the guests, and the dessert to be brought in afterwards,
place the plates before the silver. If the dessert is to be brought in on
individual plates, place the silver, then bring in the dessert.

ORANGE JELLY IN SECTIONS OF ORANGE PEEL {Illustrated on page 38)

i teaspoonful Knox Sparkling Gelatine. | cup orange juice.

I tablespoonful cold water. 1 teaspoonful lemon juice.

1 tablespoonful boiling water. 1| tablespoonfuls sugar.

Cut a circular piece of peel one inch in diameter from the stem end of an orange.
Introduce handle of a silver spoon into opening thus made, and remove pulp and
juice. Strain juice from pulp, and use in making jelly. The forefinger of the right
hand may be of assistance in loosenmg pulp lying close to skin, which should be
discarded, as it is apt to make a cloudy jelly. Proceed same as in making Lemon
Jelly. Fill orange with mixture, place in pan, and surround with ice to which a
small quantity of water has been added. As soon as jelly is firm, cut in halves
lengthwise, and cut halves in thirds, arrange on serving dish on a lace paper doily,
and garnish with glac^d cherry.

KNOX MAYONNAISE DRESSING

1 teaspoonful Knox Sparkling Gelatine, Yolks of two eggs.

1 teaspoonful mustard, if liked. 4 tablespoonfuls Lemon Juice.

1 teaspoonful salt. Few grains cayenne. 2 cups olive oil.

Mix mustard, salt, sugar and cayenne. Add egg yolks, and when well mixed
one-half teaspoonful Lemon Juice; then add gelatine, soaked in one-half tablespoon-
ful Lemon Juice five minutes, and dissolved over boiling water. Cool, and add oil
gradually, at first drop by drop, and stir constantly. As mixture thickens, thin
with remaining lemon juice. Add oil and lemon juice alternately, until all is used,
stirring or beating constantly. If oil is added too rapidly, dressing will have a cur-
dled appearance. Olive oil for the making of mayonnaise should be thoroughly
chilled. Mayonnaise should be stiff enough to hold its shape.

NOTE — If preferred, mild vinegar may be used in place of the lemon juice. A little
garlic or onion and a teaspoonful of curry powder may be mixed with the dressing to give
an added flavor. A small amount of Knox Gelatine added to a cooked dressing improves
it and makes it stand up firm and hard.

BUTTER MIXTURE

NOTE — This mixture is intended for immediate use, and will do the work of two
pounds of ordinary butter for table use and for baking cakes, muffins, etc., but is not
used for frying purposes,

1 pound good butter. 1 heaping teaspoonful Knox Gelatine.

2 pint bottles milk or one quart. 2 teaspoonfuls salt.

Take the top cream of two pint bottles of milk, and add enough of the milk
to make one pint.

Soak the gelatine in two tablespoonfuls of the milk ten minutes; place in a
dish of hot water until gelatine is thoroughly dissolved.

Cut the butter in small pieces and place same in a dish over hot water until
the butter begins to soften; then gradually whip the milk and cream and dissolved
gelatine into the butter with a Dover egg beater. After the milk is thoroughly
beaten into the butter add the salt to taste.

If the milk forms keep on beating until all is mixed in. Place on ice or in a
cool place until hard. If a yellow color is desired, use butter coloring.
