Household Hints
Wise’n Otherwise
Serve horseradish sauce with cold
pot roast.
Roll your hot doughnuts in pow
dered maple sugar and cinnamon
while they are still hot, and you will
discover a new flavor.
Try pot cheese with a little onion
juice, horseradish and chopped pars
ley added to it.
Ham is toughened by frying too
rapidly in a very hot pan.
Place a package of dates in a
warm oven for a few minutes. Then
remove the coverings and you will
find that the paper will not .stick
to the dates—and that the dates will
stone easily. This, of course, also
applies to a package of raisins.
Potato pancakes and creamed cod
fish make a hearty breakfast.

Vegetables should be cooked just
long enough to make them tender—,
not an instant longer.
Chopped sardines and watercress
mixed with French dressing make a
delicious and unusual sandwich fill
ing.
Water in which vegetables arte
cooked should be boiling when they
are placed in it.
A fruit salad is more delicious if
cut-up dates are added.
In keeping fruit, let it be spread
out in a light, airy place, no two
pieces teaching. If piled together,
or if stored i n a damp, dark place
it will decompose.
When making jelly from prepared
powders, use left-over fruit juices in
place of water.
Because they retain all their nat
ural sweet flavor, baked onions are
particularly palatable.
When preparing apples for salad,
sprinkle them with lemon juice af
ter slicing and dicing them.

When cutting out doughtnuts, dip
the cutter into hot fat instead of
flour. The dough never sticks.
A hot 'drink poured immediately
into a cold thermos quite often re
ceives a chill from which it never
recovers, and in consequence “the
piping hot drink” is not piping hot.
If you will fill the bottle with water
almost at boiling point, and allow
it to stand long enough to warm
the bottle before filling with the
hot liquid, you will find it will be
plenty hot enough when ready tO'
