SAVORIES CHEESE Cheese being a food rich in proteid, may be used as a substi tute for meat. It is more easily digested when finely divided or melted and cooked with other foods. Soda added to melted cheese assists the melting and makes it more digestible. Cheese should be kept covered in a cool place. Old cheese should be grated and kept in a cool, dry place.
Canapés are made by cutting one-quarter inch slices of bread into squares, diamonds or circles. These pieces are then dusted lightly with butter and browned in the oven or fried in deep fat until a golden brown. They are then covered with a seasoned mixture of eggs, forcemeat or cheese. They are served hot or cold and usually take the place of oysters at a dinner or luncheon.
