RUTH CURRENT SAYS:
ONE THING AND ANOTHER—
To prevent lumping, powdered
sugar should be. stored in a tight
ly covered glass container.
Lard or oil is preferable to
butter for greasing pans; the salt
in butter causes the butter to stick
to the pan.
Jelly which has become sugary
can be used to sweeten' and flavor
puddings or dried prunes, dried
peaches or other fruits.
A coating of lemon juice pre
vents bananas, peaches and apples
from discoloring after they have
been sliced.
Lemons are jucier if heated be
fore being squeezed.
A small amount of sugar added
to olive oil will prevent it from
becoming rancid.
Baking soda may_.be used to re
move grease and discoloration
from a waffle iron. t
