HINTS FOR THE
HOUSEWIFE,
| —Do not beat an egg
, separately that is going
to be added to a mix-
ture that has to be beaten.
Beat both the egg and
mixture together and so save
a few valuable minutes,
2.—All green vegetables should be boiled in plenty of water,
with the lid of the saucepan off. Only a smali pinch of bicar-
bonate of soda should be added as too much deavz0y8 the precious
vitamin.
3.—Use arrowroot when thickening a sauce or syrup that
should look transparent and clear. Flour or cornficur gives a
cloudy appearance. :
4.—When baking cakes remember to
(i) Prepare everything beforehand before actually mixing
the cake.
(ii) Cook small quantities in a hot quick oven, and larger
quantities in a moderate oven.
(iii) When baking never open the oven door in a draught or
shut the over door with a bang.
(iv) Put the cakes on a rack when cooked, to allow the air to
circulate under them.
“685 Big eakes should be left in the tin for a aaiute or two,
after they are taken out of the oven, to cool slightly before
being turned out on the rack.
(vi) Cakes are best kept in tins, Little cakes should not be
made too long before they are required. Big cakes can
be kept for a longer time.
5.—When baking bread, remember that bad kneading and
overproving make the loaf full of holes, and that stale yeast
and overcooking spoil the flavour.
6.—When coarse kitchen and oven cloths get exceptionally
dirty and greasy it is a good plan to give them a paraffin wash.
This washes and cleans the cloths very satisfactorily and is
quite easy to carry out. All you have to do is to boil the cloths
ina bucket, and add to the water some shredded soap, soda and
paraffin. For six gallons of water the proportions are as follows :
dib. soap, 4 tablespoon soda, 2 tablespoons paraffin. Boil the
cloths for $ to 1 hour. Change the boiling water if necessary
and rinse well.

7.—Soda should not be used to clean enamel-lined saucepans
as the soda wears the gloss off the enamel, and the pan is then
likely to burn. It should never be used in aluminium BeuCe bao:
as it turns them black.
Cake-tins and omelet pans should be washed as seldom as
possible. After use they should be wiped round with paper
ie they are still hot.
8.—When pouring any hot liquid into a tumbler it is safer
to put a spoon in the glass before pouring the liquid in. The
glass is not so likely to crack.
9.—Should your sink become very greasy and ditty it can be
made to look clean and shining if cleaned with paraffin and
brickdust. The tiles should be cleaned with paraffin, and
occasionally rubbed with linseed-oil.
10.—If you have a family that will not eat fat, save the scraps
and melt them down thus :
