— HELPFUL COOKING HINTS —

Read recipe carefully—read once again.

Assemble all ingredients and utensils.

Have all ingredients at room temperature, unless recipe specifies otherwise.

Accurate measurement is essential to insure good cooking and baking.

Check all liquid measurements at eye level.

Use graduated measuring cups for all dry ingredients.

Level dry measurements with straight edge knife or spatula.

Sift all flour, except whole grain type, before measuring.

To measure dry ingredients such as flour and sugar, fill cup lightly with a spoon, taking care not to shake the cup.

When using whole clove of garlic, spear on toothpick for easy removal before serving.

When using sour cream and tomatoes and afraid of curdling, add a pinch of baking soda.

When in need of sour milk, just add 2 teaspoonfuls of vinegar to a cup of milk.

If stuffed cabbage cannot be eaten because it repeats and causes discomfort, just add a small can of apple sauce or a fresh chopped apple on the bottom or top of cabbage rolls in your pot.
