The following rules should be kept lu mind when preparing fondant: Scald the saucepan well before using, to be sure there Is no odor or taste from previous cooking. Never stir the syrup after the sugar Is dissolved and cooking has commenced. This is most import ant. If the syrup is stirred the fin ished product will be granular. When testing the- syrup carefully remove from the stove or turn out the gue flame, in older to prevent further' I cooking. ' j Always cover the saucepan until boiling point is reached. If any j sugar has gathered on the side of the saucepan, the steam created by covering the kettle will remove it. Wash the hands in cold water before kneading the fondant. ; public foroi TO HE SHOT AT Sl'XRIHK Traitors who in all countries in: time of war; and rightly too. i How about knockers.
