WENDY’S LITTLE COOKS
THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW When a busy little cook-lady is in tlje kitchen, eagerly "trying-out” a npw recipe, it is rather annoying to have proceedings held up because there aren’t any scales; or perhaps someone else is using them. Suppose you make a cuke, you will probably require so many ounces each of flour, sugar and currants, so much butter or dripping and so many eggs. You can be quite independent of scales if you remember the following little hints:— Flour.—One breakfastcup equals four ounces. Butter or dripping.—One breakfastcup equals seven ounces. Castor Sugar.—One breakfastcup equals seven ounces. Moist Sugar.—One breakfastcup equals eight ounces. Currants.—One breakfastcup equals five ounces. Eggs.—Three equal five ounces. One breakfastcupful of milk or water equals half a pint, and six lumps of sugar equal one ounce.
