All recipes applying to macaroni may be used for spaghetti - The Author.
After the center has been scooped from a pineapple, or Edam cheese, save the shell for the serving of spaghetti or macaroni. Boil the spaghetti; drain, blanch, and drain again. Twist it around the inside of the cheese shell. Make a 1/2 pt. of cream sauce, and pour it carefully over the spaghetti. Stand the shell on a piece of paper in the bottom of a baking-dish, and bake in a moderately quick oven for 15 or 20 minutes. Serve on a napkin, and send at once to the table. If handled carefully the shell may be used again. The cheese shell imparts a delicious flavor to this most sightly dish. - Mabel E. Sturtevant, 105 S. Dearborn St., Chicago, 111.
