Hello Homemakers! Peaches
and cream — whether we are
talking of complexions or the
luscious fruit, are wonderful. We
cannot be too choosey about
peaches- this year, We’ll take
what we get and make good use
of them while they last. They
are delicious to serve at the be
ginning of a meal, to top ,off a
meal, or snack between meals.
Fully ripened peaches make a
speedy and a scrumptious dish—
skin, slice and serve with a
sprinkle of fine sugar and cream,
Nowadays we are prepared since
we keep a can of 18% cream on
the shelf. Without refrigeration
the can can be chilled in a short
time by placing it in cold water.
We slice peaches on , pastry

Fluffy Desserts
Light fluffy desserts, made
with eggs or whiup.a cream,
are general favourites to top off
summer meals. Cream or eggs,
when-used as a base for chilled
or frozen desserts, give a light
ness and smoothness unobtain
able with any other ingredient.
Unfortunately for those who
must pay strict attention to
counting calories, rich desserts
are taboo hut, if counting calor
ies is not an unhappy pastime in
your family, many delightful
treats are in store for you.
Since whipped cream is usually
a main ingredient in rich des
serts, it is important that certain
points be observed when whip
ping cream. Who hasn’t at one
time or other, found cream that
just would not whip?
First and foremost the cream
must be high enough in butter
fat (testing at least fl<>% fat),
otherwise it won’t whip. In ad
dition, the cream should be at
least twenty-four hours old. Too
fresh cream does .not whip well.
Then too, not only should the
cream be well chilled but tht?
bowl and beater also.
Cream should be whipped just
until stiff and dry, over-beating
frequently results in the cream
turning to butter or curdling.
When sugar, colouring or flavor
ing is added to whipped cream
1 it should be added, a little at a
time, after the cream is quite
stiff.
The following recipes, recom
mended by the home economists
of the Consumer Section, .Domin
ion Department of Agriculture,
are just right for giving that
party air to a family meal or for
tickling the palates of your most
epicurean guests.
