HOUSE AND HOME By MARY E. DAGUE Many women are cooking for two these days, brides just beginning their great adventure and housewives of long standing whose families are so inevitably reduced in numbers. In a way it’s the experienced housewife who faces the harder prob lem because her household and kitch en equipment is geared to the size of her family and she must do a lot of reconstructing in order to avoid waste. The appetites and require ments of two adults are vastly dif ferent from those of vigorous youth, but nourishing and interesting menus must be maintained. ‘ Small amounts of food must be cooked in small containers, so the established housekeeper may need to invest in some small-sized sauce pans and spiders. Top-stove cooking uten-, sils of clear glass and clean-looking and flat — 1 did — and y° u can P 11 * nate the number of servings. Ordi narily the cook-books give recipes for six persons.

If you halve amount of flour in a recipe but I get to do the same with the you’ll get into trouble. Serving dishes, too, come in for same reduction in size. A amount of meat served on an age sized pkifter looks so it loses its appeal. Vegetables for served in a dtsh calculated to enough for six persons cool rapidly and lose their flavor. If you can’t find small platters hi the shops, hunt around on your own top shelves.

You will find the five-inch top- stove glass skillet or “spider” just the j right size for a shortcake for two.. It makes a god pie pan for two as well as its innumerable uses on top of the stove. If your pans are dented and round ed on the bottom you are more than justified in buying new ones because flat-bottomed pans will pay in fuel and time savings. - The size of cooking pans is far more important than most people realize. The wider the cooking sur face the greater the evaporation, so results can’t be the same if a small amount of food is cooked in a large container. Recipes must tie re jiggered in most cases.
