Lancaster Farming, Saturday, January 9,1971 — '••••••••••••••••••••a* ••••••••*•■ Ladies, Have You Heard? ... ? i \ : By Doris Thomas, Extension Home Economist What Appliances Can’t Do Was there a small electric appliance for you under the Christ mas tree? If so, do you know what it will do and how Better yet, do you know what it can’t do? For instance, if your gift was a new blend er, it won’t whip cream as well as a mixer. New blenders with solid state controls still don’t have the container space or the big blades needed. And conventional blenders may not even whip. Was your gift a hand mixer’ Remember that this featherweight is not designed for the heavy mixing which a stand mixer is capable of doing. A stand mixer has precision-fixed beateis and a motor that’s 50-to-75 per cent stronger than a hand model. Did jou receive a new electr ~ , THOMAS ic fry pan that claims it will bake cakes’ It will bake, all right, but don’t ex pect the cake to be browned on top It’s better to plan to use the fry pan for upside-down cakes or cakes you plan to ice If there was a steam iron un der your tree, its life will be shortened if you tap water It’s worth the extra money to buy de-minerahzed or distilled water, even if the instructions don’t suggest this. Learn how to use small ap pliances and don’t store them away because you don’t know all the tasks they can perform for you Save and use the directions provided by the manufactuier to obtain the best performance from any new appliance. Diet With Desserts If you gained an extra pound or two over the holidays, one of the easiest ways to cut down on calories now is to watch the des serts you eat. Heavy cereal-type desserts such as cake, cookies, and those with whipped cream are “out” for a while They may have more calories than the lest of the meal' A good dessert has vitamins and minerals in ratio to the cal ories per serving One way to keep the calones low and the vitamins and min eials high is to seive flavorful fruit desserts. For instance, combine fruits that conti ast coloi and sweet ness This way the sweeter fruit makes it unnecessary to add more sugar Some atti active combinations might include strawbemes and giapefruit sec tions, seedless giapes and sliced bananas, pineapple and canta loupe, or pears and oianges You can increase the amount of vitamins you eat by seivmg sliced fresh bananas or pineapple in oiange juice. It’s delicious, and the oiange juice keeps the bananas from mining dark Or, why not try cooking ap ples in cranbeiry juice to add new flavor, bright color, and tart sweetness with a minimum of calories. Allow about one halp cup juice to each cup of prepared apples and you’ll have a delicious treat. Milk desserts can keep the calories down if jou use non-fat dry milk in place of whole milk when preparing them And if a dessert just doesn’t taste right without whipped cream on top, serve whipped dry milk topping instead. It looks just as pretty but it has only a fraction of the calories. Try: A Classified 41 *•% to \ \
