It is coarse because it has more of the outer layers of the wheat kernel. Because this coarseness gives Graham its pecuUar value as a food, the flour should not be sifted, as this would remove all of the coarser particles. The general proportion of a muffin batter is one part liquid to 1| parts flour. This makes a batter of such thickness that when poured from the spoon, it breaks. Such a batter is known as a drop batter. Serving: As soon as done, remove to a plate or fancy dish on which a folded or fringed napkin is placed. Muffins are properly served at breakfast or at luncheon. When eaten they are broken apart and buttered. Table manners: Rule : Never leave the table without asking to he excused. This rule appUes not only when guests are present, but in the privacy of one's family. This habit of showing courtesy at all times to one's intimates as well as to strangers is a mark of good breeding. Cleaning up: 1. Put the gem pans to soak in cold water.
