Three Questions
Dear Aunt Daisy, Your page in The Listener is always interesting and helpful. You have said that preserved eggs, if taken out of the liquid in about 2 months, will be quite sealed and ready for use. Now, must the eggs be washed and dried when taken out of the liquid like this, or first left to dry with the liquid on? (No, den’t wash, just leave to dry as they
are.) I had some bottles of peas given to me-they look beautiful. I know there is some precaution to take when using them, but don’t know exactly what it is. Does the water -have to be strained off? (Just boil the peas for 15 minutes before using or even® tasting, to | guard against Botulinous poisoning,) Perhaps you or some reader of The _ Listener may help me in the recipe for _ kiss-
cakes. I followed a recipe but the kisses went flat and spread. They tasted good, but were not very elegant to look.at. My recipe was 1% Ib. butter, Vy cupo sugar, 42 cup cornflour, 4 egg, % cup flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder. Please reply in The Listener. "Fell." Perhaps your oven was too slow, so that they spread before they rose. Also, it may be better to have a little less butter, say, 3 oz. instead of 4.
