Vintage Tips in the Kitchen

In 1952 the Sunday Herald, a Sydney newspaper printed some interesting kitchen tips I thought I would share.

* Use powdered milk mixed with water in which vegetables have been boiled to make white sauce.

* Tainted saucepans can be cleansed by boiling a cut up lemon in them for one or two hours

* Use marmalade or finely chopped fresh orange peel instead of candied peel, in fruit cake.

Try this fruit salad dressing. Mix well 1/2 cup mayonnaise with 2 tablespoons orange juice, 2 tablespoons cream and 1 teaspoon icing sugar. Beat well and chill.

I love these little insights into the past. Often still valid today.
