POTATO COOKERY POINTERS
Potatoes can provide a third or more of
the day’s vitamin C'needs, if eaten in
generous'quant ities, say homo economists
of the U,S. Department of Agriculture.
Freshly harvostod'potatocs, such as thoso
now on the market, offer more vitamin C
than those coming on winter markets from
storage. Serve potatoes plain of fancy,
but cook with care to save tho most Vita
min C as well as the 3 vitamins and iron -
and other minerals which these vogotdblos
offer.
For host nutritive value, scrub potatoes
well, then boil in their jackets. Labora
tory research shows that tho potato skin
does an efficient job of keeping important
food values from escaping to dir and cook
ing water. Salt in the cooking watbr docs
not appear to presorve the potatoes'vita
min C, as some people have supposed, and
the more salt used, the more minerals
leach out from the potato during cooking.
Home economists suggest therefore that
potatoes be seasoned when served.
Eating boiled potatpes, skin and all,gives
extra returns in food value because of tho
good measure of vitamins and minerals in
the skin and close beneath.
If potatoes arc to be mashod, hash browned,

or hqdo into salad, puffs, griddle scones
or other tempting dishes, they arc off to
a good start when first cooked in skins,An
added advantage of boiling in sl:in3 is that
the skins then peel economically, taking
no potato flesh with then. Avoid overcook
ing which nocdlossly wastes vitamins.
If potatoes must bo pccldd raw, pool thin
and cook as soon as possible.
