HINTS FOR
HOMEMAKERS I
By Irene Imw. Home
Sendee Director, VlrfWa Electric I
Take Care of Your Refrigerator
?It Will Last Longer
There is no room for waste in
wartime America. Today the nation
al keynote is to conserve, not only
food, raw materials, electricity, but
everything we own. We can cooper
ate by taking care of our appliances
and using them efficiently.
The refrigerator is often misused.
Here are a few simple rules to fol
low to help you use the refrigerator
to better advantage:
1. Keep the food compartment at
the right temperature?40 degrees is
safest.
2. Most food should be kept in cov
ered containers. Place in as small
container as possible.
t Pwnfiw paper onvprlnps from
all food except frozen food.
4. Avoid overcrowding the refrig
erator with food?it stops necessary
air circulation.
5. Do not let too much frost ac
cumulate before defrosting. Follow
manufacturers directions for de
frosting.
8 Never put hot food or hot dishes
in the refrigerator Wait until they
are room temperature.
7. Don't waste space or refrigera
tion by keeping foods in the refrig
erator that do not need to be kept
cold to preserve them, like pickles,
jelly, vegetable "hortening, unopen
ed cans and condiments.
8. Use slightly warm soda water to
wash the inside of the refrigerator
each time it is defrosted. Do not for
get the freezer?that is where food
odors collect.
9. Look up the book of directions
which came with your refrigerator,
study it again to refresh yourself
on the manufacturer's recommenda
tions for safe, efficient and econom
ical operation.
We are now approaching the sea
son when we welcome frozen des
serts. Frozen desserts must be froz
en rapidly to obtain a desirable tex
ture in the finished product. In rap
id freezing, the ice crystals are
small, and a smooth creamy dessert
results. That is why we suggest set
ting the cold control at the coldest
position for freezing then turning it
back to a position not quite so cold
for holding until serving time.
