Quaint Gift
In The Mail
Christmas is an exciting tim
even to a food editor because
the mail brings the most unex
pected gifts.
This week it was a Utile
Dutch "speculaas" board, an
exact replica of an antique spe
culaas board used centuries ago
by Dutch and German cooks to
make little cookies with raised
designs.
Speculaas, pronounced spee-coo-las,
meaning mirror, is an
appropriate name for these
cookies because they mirror the
designs in the board.
The traditional Netherlands
tale of speculaas boards is that,
on Dec. 5 St. Nicolaas arrives,
lie sails into the land on a boat
from Spain and brings sacks full
of toys. and dolls of speculaas
for all good children.
tf you look you can find some
of these boards about town.
Any child would love to find
some speculaas dolls tucked
into a stocking.
SPICV SPECULAAS COOKIES
3 cups sifted enriched flour
3 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon cloves
1 teaspoon nutmeg
Vi teaspoon baking powder
'i teaspoon salt
1 cup softened butter
lj cup shortening
l'i cups light brown sugar
2 to 3 tablespoons milk
Sift together flour, cinnamon,
cloves, nutmeg, baking powder
and salt: Add butter, shortening
and brown sugar, Mix at low
speed on mixer or with wood
en spoon until mixture is
crumbly and well blended. Add
milk a tablespoon at a time to
form a very stiff dough. Press
small amount of dough into each
carved section of speculaas
board and press down firmly
with palm of hand to complete
ly fill mold. With sharp knife,
gently cut away excess by run
ning knife across top of board
using a sawing motion. Invert
sheet and tap one end so
cookies fall onto sheet. If some
cookies break, gently push to
gether. Place cookies close to
gether on sheet. Repeat with re.
malning dough. Bake In moder
ate oven (350 degrees F.) about
15 minutes or until lightly
browned around edges.
Makes about 6' dozen small
cookies or 3'i dozen large cook
ies. If you don't sift and in the ob
sence of other directions, spoon
flour directly from container
into dry measuring cup, level
off, then remove two level tn.
blcspoonfuls, according to US
DA recommendations.
Note: If self-rising flour is
used, omit salt and baking powder.
Cookies will come out of
carved sections more easily If
board has been seasoned first.
To season, fill sections with
solid shortening, using about 2
tablespoons altogether, place
board on aluminum foil or bak
ing pan. Place In slow oven
(300 degrees F.) for about 45
minutes. Remove from oven
and wipe off excess shortening.
Cool board before using.

Clean Metal
Easy Way
By FRANCES C. HALL
County Extension Agent
As file holidays approach,
many homemakera are looking
for nw products that can ease
the chore of keeping silver,
copper, brass and other metals
shiny clean. For example, sil
ver polishes are now available
which both clean and protect
against tarnishing.
For a simple way to quick
clean a quantity of silver ta
blewaro, fit a piece of alumi
num oil into the bottom of
a pan and put the silver on top
of it. The foil should be tlie
sire of the pan bottom. Cover
the silver with hot water and
add a teaspoon of baking soda.
In a few minutes, tarniih will
be deposited on the foil.
Caution: Do not use this
m e t h 0 d for hollow . handled
pieces or for oxidiied silver
patterns. When not in use.
store silver in tarnjsh-resistant
flannel or airtight plastic
wraps.
Brass and copper accessories
will slum tarnish If given a
beauty treatment with kitchen
cleaning wax. First remove
tarnish with a copper cleaner
or with vinegar and salt. Wash
iin lint sudsy water, rinse, and
polish with a soft cloth. Than
apply wax, the type used for
the exterior of the refrigerator.
Lacquer sprayed on the out
side of clean silver, copper
or brass also provides a pro
tective coating but don't apply
it to items which come in con
tact with food, tlio specialist
emphasizes. These lacquers
and waxes arc available at
most hardware and department
stores.
If stainless eteet looks spot
ted or dull, wash it wtoh warm
water, soap or a synthetic de
tergent. Itinse, and polish dry
with a soft cloth.
Chromium finishes, such as
found on toasters and other
appliances, do not tarnish but
become dull and covered with
film. Clean with silver polish,
wash in warm suds, rinse and
polish witli a cloth.
Pewter, an alloy oi tin and
other metals, is very soft and
must be handled carefully to
avoid scratching. Wash in liot,
sudsy water, rinse and polish
dry witli a soft cloth. If tar
nished, use a silver .polish. A
soft luster enhances pewter.
Crystal vases and bowls will
have added sparkle if washed
in warm suds to which a few
drops of household ammonia
are added. Rinse well'and dry.
Wooden taay should be
wiped with a cloth wrung out
of cold1 water, then dried. Do
not stand on edge to dry. Wood
absorbs waler and cracks or
warps easily If left dn contact
with tvater. Salad bowls should
be washed quickly in warm
suds, rinsed with warm or cold
water, and dried immediately.
Do not soak woodenware or put
it in an automatic dishwasher.
Salad servers and bowls
which have lost their finish can
be smoothed when dry with
sandpaper, then rubbed with
linseed oil. Wipe off surplus oil
and expose to air until odor is
gone.
A leaflet "Care of Metals
and Kitchenware" is available
for the asking at the county
extension office. 1949 Main
