Food Mill Works Wonders
There are certain pieces of kitchen equipment that among
pood cooks are as indispensable as* the kitchen sink. Counted
among the blessings are sharp knives, a chopping block, a pas
try cloth with a stockinette cover for the rolling pin and a roast
ing pan with a V shaped rack.
At certain seasons of the year, special equipment comes into
its own and quickly makes up for lost time. Just such an item
is the Food Mill, which- works wonders in dozens of ways. When
a bumper crop of tomatoes arrives. the" Food Mill hastily turns
it into sensational tomato juice. Throughout the apple season,
nothing beats a Food Mill for making applesauce By the Food
Mill method, there's no need to peel or core the apples. Just
cut them into quarters and cook them in the barest amount
of water. Then turn them through the Food Mill. The mill not
only makes smooth flavorful sauce but makes 25" ?> more for
the amount of apples used than any other method.
During the holidays, the Food Mill cjmes in handy for fresh
homemade cranberry jelly and for mashing th*e potatoes for
the turkey dini^r, regardless of whether they are white or sweet
potatoes.
Truly, no smart cook can afford to be without a Food Mill.
FOOD MILL APPLESAUCE
4 pounds apples Lemon juice if needed for
'/4 cup water tartness
1 to l'/2 cups sugar
Wash apples and quarter without peeling or coring. Remove
blossom ends and stems. There should be about 4 quarts. Place
apples in large saucepan or kettle. Add water, cover and cook
over low heat 15 to 20 minutes or until apples are soft, stirring
occasionally. Spoon apples, a third at a time, into Food Mill
placed over a bowl or saucepan Strain by turning handle of
Food Mill clockwise; reverse direction iof handle occasionally in
order to remove" apples under paddle Add 1 cup of sugar to
sauce. Taste and add extra sugar and lemon juice if needed.
