You arc free lor the day and return at six to find dinner ready to serve, piping hot, thoroughly, cooked, and full of the flavor that only the heat alotugc method of cooking can give it. This freedom from the kitchen is only one of the many advan tages of electric cooking. The time will come when you will . cook with electricity why not now.
