Kitchen Wisdom
A FRYING HINT If the fat catches fire when food is being fried, it is sure to flare up. No amount of water will stop it, but a small handful of salt or flour will soon quench the flame. Never move the pan when It is flaming. TWO USEFUL TIPS (1) Banana skins are splendid for polishing brown shoes. Rub the shoes with the inside part of the skin and polish with a soft rag. (2) To prevent patent leather shoes from cracking, remove all dust, dip a flannel ill olive oil or vaseline, rub them with this and polish with a soft duster. JAM MAKING Place a saucer in the bottom of the preserving pan after the jam, jelly or marmalade has come to the boil. You may then go about other work without the constant fear that you smell burning sugar. The contents of the pan will neither burn nor boil over.
