The Troy Record discusses saving blue points through fresh produce this summer. It outlines weekly meal plans for four, shows red point allocations for meats and fats, and offers a Duck roast menu, fruit substitutes, and a Coffee Rice Pudding recipe to stretch limited ration ingredients during wartime.
Wartime guidance promotes margarine as a vitamin fortified, low-cost alternative to butter. Enriched margarine with vitamin A helps meet daily Group 7 requirements while reducing ration-point usage in daily menus.
Home canning remains possible under sugar rationing with a five pound per person allotment. Strawberries provide jam options now, including strawberry jam, mixed berry preserves, and strawberry pineapple blends. Follow steps: wash hull and weigh fruit, equal sugar, overnight rest, heat to boiling and boil until jelly tests. Pour into hot glasses and seal with paraffin.
Pack raw berries into hot jars with a wooden spoon to avoid crushing. Add four tablespoons sugar, fill with berries, seal as appropriate, and process in a water bath for ten minutes. Remove, complete sealing, then cool in a cool dark place. Jars shrink during processing, so leave them about three quarters full. Do not open the jars to test.
