COOKING HELPS (1935)
When baking fish, always line the pan with waxed paper. You will then have no sticky dish to wash.
After fowl of any kind is cleaned, the inside should be rubbed thoroughly with a piece of lemon before the dressing is put in.
Add a cup of cooked rice to a meat loaf and you will have a loaf that will cut better and have a new flavor.
Before frying bacon, soak it in cold water for three or four minutes. This will prevent the grease from running, and the bacon will have a much nicer flavor.
Save and dry celery tops and use to flavor stew when celery is scarce.
When cooking with lard do not put too much in the pan at one time. This lowers the temperature and causes whatever you are cooking to absorb the lard.
To test eggs - If an egg is fresh it will lie on its side when placed in a pan of water and will sink to the bottom. If it is stale, it will stand on end and rise to the surface. When just a few days old, the egg will begin to tilt a trifle and as it ages, it will tilt more until it stands on end.
To keep yolks of eggs fresh - if only the whites are used, cover the yolk gently with a little cold water, so as not to break it and refrigerate. It will keep fresh for several days.
For Sunday night supper, make cheese and liver sausage sandwiches with TAYSTEE BREAD and toast them in a waffle iron.
Ta keep mashed potatoes hot and fluffy when dinner is delayed, put them in a double boiler over hot water until served.
For children who refuse to eat carrots, cook the carrots until tender; put them through a potato ricer, add creamed salmon and serve en TAYSTEE toast. In this way the children unknowingly get the necessary vitamins.
When children came home on cold days, they will enjoy a hot drink with a slice of TAYSTEE toast and jam.
A pinch of cinnamon added to hot chocolate or cocoa increases the flavor at the chocolate.
A tiny pinch of salt put on top of the coffee grounds before the water is added accentuates the delicious flavor and aroma.

To remove the scorched taste from food, lift the vessel holding the food from the fire and stand it in a pan of cold water for a few minutes. In almost every case this will remove the scorched taste.

Left-over, cooked potatoes must not be piled together as they sour quickly. Spread them out in a large dish.
To hasten the cooking of vegetables, add a small pinch of baking soda to the water.
