The Frontier Woman ... I
Time Flees Except for Bride-Elects
By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE
Its hard to understand (unless
you're a prospective June bride
to-be) where the time has
gone this spring. Here it is the
last of May and we haven’t
gotten everything done that we
wanted to do before June came
along and hot weather with it!
To save your time these days,
rnake up some pastry mix for
yourself, and use some pie mix
fillings (pudding mix) to hurry
things up. We know you have a
million things to do.
PIE CRUST MIX
Use seven cups flour, four tea
spoons salt and two cups lard.
Sift the flour, measure and add
the salt. Cut lard into flour with
knives or pastry blender until
the crumbs are coarse or gran
ular. Cover and store in the re
frigerator until ready to use.
In using pie mix, 2Vz cups
are required for a large two
crust pie and lVz oi the pie mix
for a one-crust pie.
If your family is large and
you eat quite a lot of pie, you
may want to mix up and refrig
erate about twice the above
amount of pie crust mix.
You can also make up a bis- ;
cuit mix that will save you a lot
of time and it’s cheaper than
buying the prepared biscuit
mix.
HOME MADE BISCUIT MIX !
Eight cups flour, eight tea
spoons baking powder, four tea
spoons salt, 1 Vz cups lard.
Sift flour and measure. Sift
again with the baking powder
and salt. Cut in the lard until
the mixture has a fine even
crumb. Place in a closed con
tainer and keep in refrigerator,
using as desired. This mixture
will keep at least a month in
the refrigerator. It will yield five
batches with two cups of the
mixture to the batch. It may be
used for biscuits, dumplings,
shortcake, waffles, muffins,
quick coffee cake and dozens of
other things. You use enough
milk to make a soft dough.

Dear Mrs. Pease:
Am sending in a few hints and
recipes to try for the free sub
scription to The Frontier. Hope
these recipes and hints will help
someone.
lo root leaves of African vio
clts and gloxinias, I have devis
ed the following method: Make
a cover for a flat salmon or tuna
can from a piece of aluminum
foil. Punch a hole in the foil for
each leaf stem, one larger hole
for replacing the water in the
can. When the leaves are rooted,
simply tear the foil apart to re
move them for planting.
Juices drained from canned
vegetables can be frozen in any
small container or cube tray
and anyone or several vegetable
juice “cubes” may be added to
vegetable soup to give a de
licious flavor.
To thicken cherry juice for
pie, place juice in a fruit jar, add
flour, shake as for gravy thick
ening. Cook over low heat in a
frying pan, no stirring or watch
ing needed. Same method for
corn starch.
Use leftover deviled eggs in
salmon or tuna salad, especially
for sandwiches, as they reduce
the mixture to a better spread
ing consistency.
Leftover meat loaf, crumbled i
or ground and combined with
your favorite tomato soup,
sauce, catsup, etc., makes very
good “Wimpies,” or call them

what you will — anyway, serve
on split buns.
NEVER FAIL DUMPLINGS
One cup unsifted flour, two
teaspoons cornstarch, Vz tea
spoon salt, one egg, Vz cup milk,
three teaspoons baking powder.
Beat egg well, add milk, add
combined dry ingredients, all at
once, stirring as little as pos
sible. (Do not mix batter unt’l
ready to use it.) Drop batter by
tablespoons into slightly thick
ened meat broth, Boil very gent
ly for 15 minutes. Do not uncov
er during this time. These will
not be soggy, even if warmed
over.
(Editor’s note — I have been
using the above recipe myself
for years. But my recipe calls
for two level tablespoons corn
starch, and % teaspoon salt. And
I steam the dumplings with
tight cover on for 20 minutes,
dropping on stew by teaspoons.
I sometimes add % teaspoon
sage to the batter for a new
taste flavor. It does make a very
light dumpling, and I have nev
er known the recipe to fail. A
couple of years ago, I heard a
home economist give this recipe
over the air. It matched the one
I used exactly. Evidently the re
cipe has been kicking around the
country for years and years.)
RHUBARB BATTER PUDDING
Place three cups of fresh or
frozen rhubarb in a quart sized
casserole. Add one cup sugar,
mixed with two tablespoons
flour. Stir together, dot with
butter, put in oven to start bak
ing at 375 F.
Prepare the following batter
—% cup sugar, one egg, Vz cup
sweet cream, % cup sifted flour,
one teaspoon baking powder, 14
teaspoon salt. Beat eggs, add
sugar and cream, then all dry
ingredients. Pour over rhubarb,
bake 45 minutes in 375 F. oven.
Serve with plain or whipped
cream. . „„„
