tiik r.iRTvs-KYi: ?pineapple.
The Inexpensive strawberry, or bird's eye, pine?
apple is now In market. It Is not the proper va?
riety for deaeefl or for preserving, but It makes a
fair breakfast si lad and a good pie or puddlr.g, be?
cause of it? suh-aeid flavor. One small "pine."
which should not cost over five cents, Is sufficient
for a pio ten Inches In diameter.
THE PINEAPPLE PIE.
Select ripe fruit and dig out the. rather deep
eyes that give it the name of bird's-eye. Cut the
pulp In ?mail slivers und mix half a cup of sugar
with It. Some housekeepers prefer to tear the
pineapple In ?hreds with a silver fork, and It
Is always a mistake to cut any kind of pineapple
With anything but silver.
Put the pulp and sugar In a porce'.nln-llned kft:tle,
and ?Mr for one minute. Line a. ten-inch tin
pie plate with plain pastry, nil It with the prepared
pineapple and cover it with nice puff paste. Bru.'li
It over with the white of an egg. nnd bake from
fifty to sixty minutes in a rather ?juick oven. Uee
a pie plate at least an inch deep, with straight
?idea, rather than the shallow pie plates with
eloping sides, which seem designed to allow the
contents of the pia to escape on the oven bottom.
Dredge tho pie with sugar when It Is baked, and
set It back Into the oven until the sugar melts and
forms a glaze over the crust.
tutcm no. a.
Another way to make this pie Is to stew the pine?
apple for about tr?n minutes, when It will be tender.
Bake the under crust, filling it with rice or appio
?sauce, until It Is done. After this, ?crape out the
contents and put In the cooked pineapple, covering
it with a merini;ii.> made of the whites of two
eggs, three heaping tab'espoonfuls of sugar and
the jirl???? of half a lemon. Bnko the p?o until the
meringue Is done. It wl.l tako about fifteen min?
utes In a slow oven, at the end of which time the
meringue should be but delicately browned.
AMBROSIA.
An ordinary ambrosia consista of grnted coeoa
nut. mixed either with sweet orange? or with pine?
apples, pe* led and sliced In thin slices across the
fruit. The oranges should bo freed from their
seeds and the pineapple of its core. Put a layer
of the fruit in the bottom of a preserve dish, then
sprlnklo sugar over it and add a layer of grated
co.-e.mu?. Continue In the same manner until the
I dish Is full; then drelq-e the top thlekly with sugar
1 and set It In th" oven long enough to melt tho
? sugar. When lr ts cold SOI It en th?? lee to be~om?
; thoroughly chilled. Blip It carefully la the pyramidal
shape ef "the hollowed dish it was made In onto a
lew crys? ,i dessert platter, nnd serve It with
whipped ? r? am.
Sometimes both orange and pineapple are used,
and sometimes a little sherry' or maraschino Is
added to the layers of fruit.
??? ordinary :hree-pint bowl makes ,a good form
In which to prepare ambrosia, nnd It can easily be
slipped from such a dish onto a dessert platter by
sin,ply loosening It, invrtlng the platter over It
and then turning th? two ??,-r together nnd lifting
off the b iwl
This simple preparation of fruit nnd ooeonnut
may bo made m?ire ornamental by surrounding It
with a wreath of Whipped cream. This recipe is
given In response to a special request frc-m a reader
of Household Talks.
