Sponge Cake Secrets

The beauty of sponge cake lies
largely in their hghtness. and this is
attained with eggs beaten to the utmost
degree of frothness. But another char.
acteristic appeals to us and that is the
various flavors that may be given to
the simple mixture.
There\are lady fingers. Savoys. Jelly.
chocolate and fruit rolls, as we'll as
layer, loaf and sunshine cakes to be
made over the one simple recipe.
My Adjustable Sponge Cake Rule
Take any number of eggs and weigh
them, then take the same weight of
sugar and half the same weight of flour.
Divide the yolks from the whites of the
eggs and beat each until light. Cream
the yolks and the sugar together, add
f1avoring and the stiff whites of the
eggs, and lastly the -four. Never beat
the mixture, but cut and fold it to-
gether speedily and with delicate
touch so the air cells in the eggs will
not break Pour into cake pans and
bake according to the size of the loaves.
Powdered sugar is always used for
sponge cakes and some very successful
bakers sift the flour and sugar together
and add the eggs.
Those who are not accustomed to
measuring by weight will find it a sim.
pie matter if they recall that ten eggs
of average size weigh about one pound.
If water is added to sponge mixtures
the texture of the cake is coarser and
elastic, yet the following is very good
for short cakes and berry desserts and
for Charlottes.
Sponge Cake No. 1
Separate and beat six eggs. Sift
three cups of flour with two and a half
cups of powdered sugar. Measure one
cup of water and add favoring to it.
Mix all this together quickly and bake
without iarring.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
What is reasonable price TO pay
for saltf Is coarse salt safe to use for
cooking' Why is some salt more salty
than other kindsf How can it be kept
from caking in the cellars'-Vexed,
Reply.-lf by coarse salt you mean
crushed rock salt such as it used for
freezing purposes, it is not fit for food.
The bag salt that sells at about five
cents two-pound sack is sufficiently
refined for cooking, The very fine salt
in fancy boxes is not any more pure
than cheaper grades, but it is of beau
tiful whiteness and pleases particular
diners. Salt does lose its SAVIOR; we
have good authority for that. Some
times this is from moisture, often it
is from being heated | have seen salt
kept in the warming oven where it be-
comes hot and then cold and this soon
makes it good for nothing. Try various
brands until you are suited, but remem-
ber salt acts directly upon the kidneys
and it must be pure to wholesome.

be using poor grade of baking powder
or dark colored flour. Baking powder
bread should be white. light and tender.
