I From this time of year until
! spring, Alaskan cooks face the
problem of trying to make veg
etables more interesting. After
long storage, even home-grown
roots begin to taste like one an
other, and most of us know how
long it takes to persuade a fam
ily to eat up a case of canned
spinach or string beans.
The housewife is lucky who
has pickled or krauted a large
supply of vegetables. Turnips
and beets, as well as the favorite
cabbage, make excellent kraut
and are at their best if made
up two quarts at time in early
summer when the vegetables are
young and tender. Although the
product will not be as good, it’s
still not too late to shred up some
of the vegetables from the root
cellar and let them ferment to
add a tang to dinner.
Four pounds of shredded tur
nip mixed with three tablespoon
fuls of salt fill a two-quart jar.
The lid should be set on loosely
for the first few days to let the
juices bubble out. The jars
should be set on China plates on
a warm shelf and stirred down
with a wooden stick every day
so that the juice may be poured
back in. When the juice stops
running out, tighten the jar lids,
and the kraut will be ripe in
about two weeks.
It’s fun to experiment with

different flavors in each jar,
such as a dash of dill, black pep
per, or a few juniper berries.
Curry powder is a useful spice
for pepping up sawdust-like veg
etables. Take is easy at first, as
some families are reluctant to
1ry its exotic flavor, and don’t
want it too often. Try a half to a
full teaspoonful in cream sauce
for cabbage, sprouts, cauliflower,
or string beans.
