General tips

Oven Tips : If you don't have one, consider buying a self-cleaning oven. They use less energy for normal cooking because of higher insulation levels. They also save on your rubber glove and cleanser purchases! However, if you use the self-cleaning feature more than once a month, you'll end up using more energy than you saved. When you clean the oven, do it right after cooking to take advantage of residual heat.


Kitchen Tip : Use a covered kettle or pan to boil water; it's faster and it uses less energy.

Ingredients And Procedures

-Virginia Housewife, 1831 "Take freshly gathered Apricots not too ripe; to Half their Weight of loaf Sugar, add as much Water as will cover the Fruit; boil and skim it: then put in the Apricots, and let them remain five or six Minutes; take them up without Syruup, and ;ay them on Dishes to cool; boil the Syrup till reduced one Half; when the Apricots are cold, put them in Bottles, and cover them with equal Quantities of syrup and French Brandy. If the Apricots be clingstone, they will require more scalding." Source: Mrs. Mary Randolph's Virginia Housewife, 1831 Posted on Cooking Echo by Karl Lembke on 12-26-92 MM by Cathy Svitek
